Abstract: This paper considers hyperbolic, one spatial dimension nonlinear wave propagation in a hyperelastic solid, and a discussion of the basic theory is presented. Constitutive relations for compressible ...

Abstract: The plane-stress unloading waves emanating from a suddenly punched circular hole in a thin plate subjected to a uniform uniaxial tension field are considered. It is assumed that the plate is ...

Abstract: An accurate approximate method for the solution of the generalized plane stress problem of finite elastic deformation of a rotating annular disk is given. The method is applicable to both ...

Abstract: Lagrangian equations of motion for finite amplitude azimuthal shear wave propagation in a compressible isotropic hyperelastic solid are obtained in conservation form with a source term. A ...
