Abstract: This paper is concerned with the mechanism of ice-lifting from a flat surface through penetration of the interface by means of a sharp blade. We first considered a static case in which the ...

Abstract: Problems in creep buckling of columns have generally been analyzed based on the assumption of small deflection. However, it is known that the critical time for creep buckling is determined by ...

Abstract: This paper is concerned with the problem of dynamic instability during ice-lifting from a flat surface through penetration of the interface by means of a sharp blade. The blade is subjected ...

Abstract: This paper deals with the finite extension of an elastic strand with a central core surrounded by a single layer of helical wires subjected to axial forces and twisting moments. The central ...

Abstract: In this paper, the creep buckling behavior of shallow Mises trusses and two-hinged sinusoidal low arches with sandwich cross section is studied. The material properties are assumed to be nonlinear ...

Abstract: This paper is concerned with the analysis of the finite biaxial extension of completely set plain woven fabrics with the yarns treated as curved rods. The undeformed configuration of the yarn ...

Abstract: This paper deals with the small extension of linearly elastic two-ply filament yarns. Each filament is treated as a long slender curved rod with circular cross section and helical configuration. ...
