Abstract: The main objective of this paper is to simulate springback using a combined kinematic/isotropic hardening model. Material parameters in the hardening model are identified by an inverse method. ...

Abstract: The main objective of this paper is to obtain the first few stress-strain loops of sheet metals from reverse loading so that the springback can be simulated accurately. Material parameters are ...

Abstract: An integral equation approach is derived for the calculation of the elastoplastic strain field associated with a transformed inclusion of constant stress-free transformation strain and for an ...

Abstract: Pole tip recession in magnetic recording thin film heads contributes to spacing loss, which leads to a degradation in the readback signal. As manufacturers improve the performance of magnetic ...

Abstract: Two independent methods are derived for the calculation of the elastic strain field associated with a coherent precipitate of arbitrary morphology that has undergone a stress-free transformation ...

Abstract: The modified equivalency and integral equation methods for determination of the constrained strain field associated with a precipitate that has undergone a dilatational stress-free transformation ...

Abstract: Several workers have demonstrated the presence of singular stress fields near the edge of a bimaterial interface subject to thermal gradients. Many of the analyses in the literature are limited ...

Abstract: The literature dealing with vibrations of turbomachinery blades is voluminous, but the vast majority of it treats the blades as beams. In a previous paper a two-dimensional analytical procedure ...

Abstract: Shallow shell theory and Ritz method are employed to determine the frequencies and mode shapes of turbomachinery blades having both camber and twist, rotating with non-zero angles of attack. ...
