Abstract: Mises type of creep equations have been used widely to study creep and relaxation phenomena. In a study by Murakami and Yamada [1] inclusion of J3 , the third invariant of the deviatoric ...

Abstract: When contact pins, wire wrap posts, etc., are press fitted into printed circuit boards, the contact force at the interface of a post and plate relaxes with time. Much of the relaxation of ...

Abstract: Lower bounds on rupture times of a thick-walled tube in pure torsion and a hollow sphere under constant internal pressure are obtained. Numerical values of rupture times for the tube case ...

Abstract: The simple wave solutions with one compression and two shear impact loadings on the boundary of a half space of isotropic hardening material are obtained. Both the fast simple wave and slow ...

Abstract: The study of one-dimensional combined longitudinal and torsional plastic wave propagation in a thin-walled cylindrical tube of isotropic-hardening material was first carried out by Clifton. In ...

Abstract: A composite system of two cantilever beams subjected suddenly to a vibrating environment has been studied. The effect of various parameters defining the system on its chatter characteristics has ...
