Void Growth in an Elastic-Plastic Medium
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The uniaxial deformation of an elastic-plastic medium containing a doubly periodic square array of circular cylindrical voids is studied under plane-strain conditions. Both the effects of geometrical ...
An Upper Bound on the Small Displacements of Elastic, Perfectly Plastic Structures
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An inequality is described which allows the evaluation of upper bounds to the displacement of an elastic/perfectly plastic structure subject to variable loading. Simple examples indicate that ...
The Influence of Two-Dimensional End Effects on the Natural Frequencies of Cantilevered Beams Weak in Shear
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
The Hydrodynamic Drag on a Small Sphere in an Ionized Gas
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A theoretical and experimental study was made of the hydrodynamic drag on a small sphere moving relative to a plasma in local thermodynamic equilibrium. The results have application to velocity ...
A Qualitative Study of Gas Bearings Operating at High Subsonic and Supersonic Tangential Speeds
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The work presented here is a preliminary study of the Mach number effect based on the usual lubrication assumptions except, for the retention of convective terms in the equations of motion. ...
Dynamic Instability of a Cantilever Column Subjected to a Follower Force Including Thermomechanical Coupling Effect
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Within the context of the linear thermoelasticity theory, including thermomechanical coupling effect, the dynamic instability of equilibrium of an elastic cantilever column subjected to a follower-type ...
A Minimum Principle for the Law of Dry Friction, With Application to Elastic Cylinders in Rolling Contact—Part 1: Fundamentals—Application to Steady Rolling
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In Part 1 of the present paper a minimum principle for the Coulomb-Amontons law of friction is derived. This minimum principle is uniform in the sense that no distinction is made between the ...
A Correlation Study of Formulations of Incremental Deformation and Stability of Continuous Bodies
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In the past a number of different linearized mathematical formulations of the infinitesimal incremental deformations of continuous bodies under initial stress have been proposed. The best-known ...
Determination of the Unloading Boundary in Longitudinal Elastic-Plastic Stress Wave Propagation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: For several types of excitation of one-dimensional elastic-plastic stress waves in a rod, unloading waves propagate which interact with the loading waves. The moving boundary at which this ...
A Combined Finite Element-Multiple Criteria Optimization Approach for Materials Selection of Gas Turbine Components
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The design of critical components for aerospace applications involves a number of conflicting functional requirements: reducing fuel consumption, cost, and weight, while enhancing performance, ...
