Abstract: An elasticviscoplastic based finite element model has been developed to study the necking behavior of tube expansion for rate independent materials, rate dependent monolithic materials, and laminated materials during dynamic ...

Abstract: The necking behavior of cladding sheets with a ratesensitive layer cladding on a rateinsensitive core material has been studied. A nonlinear longwavelength analysis, similar to the one proposed by Hutchinson and Neale ...
