Abstract: An axial-torsional extensometer has been designed, constructed and tested. This extensometer is suitable for use in the experimental determination of multiaxial plastic deformation and determination ...

Abstract: The stress response of soft biological tissues is investigated theoretically. The treatment follows the approach of Wu and Yao [1] and is now extended for a broad class of soft tissues. The ...

Abstract: A version of the endochronic theory for sand is applied to describe the experimental results of a crystal silica No. 20 sand under cyclic simple shearing. Determination of the material parameters of the present model is ...

Abstract: Combined axial-torsional experiments have been conducted at room temperature on thin-walled tubes to investigate the strain hardening behavior of annealed 304 stainless steel due to creep. The ...

Abstract: This paper discusses a method, based on Nadai’s solution, which can be used to determine the true (Cauchy) shear stress-strain curve of a material by means of torsion test of a solid shaft. ...
