Abstract: The strain energy density theory (the S-theory) has been examined. Two points that may lead to confusion have been discussed when the S-theory is employed in the study of the angled crack ...

Abstract: The strain failure criterion proposed by the second author is applied to obtain general solutions for the angled elliptic notch problem subject to uniform biaxial loading. The solutions can be ...

Abstract: The inelastic response of a beam to several time-varying moments is presented in this paper. The constitutive equations used to describe the beam material are due to Hart. This is one of ...

Abstract: The strain failure criterion previously proposed by the first author is applied to obtain solutions for the angled elliptic notch problem subject to compressive and tensile loads. The theory ...
