Abstract: It is shown that the solution, in plane elastostatics, for an infinite domain with a bonded circular inclusion (heterogeneous problem), may be obtained from the solution of the corresponding ...

Abstract: It is shown that the elastic field induced by prescribed displacements or surface tractions acting on a circular disk (inner region) can be expressed in terms of the elastic field induced by ...

Abstract: A discrete variational formulation of plasticity and viscoplasticity is developed based on the principle of maximum plastic dissipation. It is shown that the Euler-Lagrange equations (spatial ...

Abstract: In this paper, we briefly review some of the recent developments in the methodology of heterogenization. A connection between a group structure on the set (−1, 1) of real numbers t such that ...

Abstract: The heterogenization technique, recently developed by the authors, is applied to the problem, in antiplane elastostatics, of two circular inclusions of arbitrary radii and of different shear ...

Abstract: In this paper we consider, within the framework of the linear theory of elasticity, the problem of circularly cylindrical and plane layered media under antiplane deformations. The layers are, ...
