Abstract: This is a study of time base errors in video tape packs. The tape is viscoelastic. If a wound pack is stored at a constant temperature or subjected to environmental temperature cycles, the ...

Abstract: Thermal response of a viscoelastic rod under cyclic loading is discussed by determining the stresses and temperature in a viscoelastic rod insulated on its lateral surface and driven by a ...

Abstract: A numerical scheme for time-dependent inelastic analysis of transverse deflection of plates of arbitrary shape by the boundary element method is presented in this paper. The governing differential ...

Abstract: The subject of this paper is an analysis of metal extrusion processes by the boundary element method (BEM). It is demonstrated here that the BEM can be used to analyze, efficiently and ...

Abstract: A numerical analysis procedure using the boundary-integral equation method is presented for the solution of problems of time-dependent inelastic deformation in planar metallic bodies. The formulation ...

Abstract: This paper examines the modeling of large shearing of solids that exhibit induced anisotropy during inelastic deformation. The “traditional” approach uses integration of material rates of certain ...

Abstract: A Stewart platform in its most general form is a parallel manipulator with six linear actuators connected to the base and the end-effector with spherical joints. We introduce the concept of ...

Abstract: Several newer constitutive relations have recently been proposed for describing the mechanical behavior of metals and alloys under elevated temperature creep conditions. A salient feature of the ...

Abstract: A novel formulation for elastoplasticity has been recently proposed by Liu and Hong. These authors have explored the internal symmetry of the constitutive model for perfect plasticity to ensure ...
