Abstract: A stabilized semi-implicit fractional step algorithm based on the finite element method for solving ship wave problems using unstructured meshes is presented. The stabilized governing equations for the viscous incompressible ...

Abstract: The impact problem for a rigid-plastic beam is formulated by using an interaction curve relating shearing force and bending moment for fully plastic action, and allowing for shear and rotary ...

Abstract: The elastic-plastic behavior of rotationally symmetric sandwich shells is considered in the presence of the thermal effects arising from thermal straining and the temperature dependence of the ...

Abstract: We study three “incompressibility flavors” of linearly elastic anisotropic solids that exhibit volumetric constraints: isochoric, hydroisochoric, and rigidtropic. An isochoric material deforms without ...

Abstract: The paper is concerned with the plane motion of a rigid-strain-hardening membrane attached to two parallel fixed supports. The membrane is subjected to a uniformly distributed transverse impulse ...

Abstract: The paper is concerned with simply supported shallow conical shells loaded through a central boss. The shell material is rigid-plastic and the relevant stress resultants are subject to a nonlinear ...

Abstract: The quasi-static postyield deformation of a rigid-plastic arch in the presence of geometry changes is considered. The problem is formulated in terms of a series of boundary-value problems concerned ...

Abstract: The paper is concerned with the representation of the relationship that exists, for a given material and temperature and for small deformations, between histories of applied stress and the ...

Abstract: The paper presents a systematically numerical procedure based on the finite-element method for three-dimensional analysis of segmentally constructed prestressed concrete bridges using hexahedral elements including realistic ...
