Abstract: A method of potentials is presented for the derivation of the dynamic response of an elastic half-space to an arbitrary, time-harmonic, finite, buried source. The development includes a set of ...

Abstract: A one-dimensional rate-sensitive stress-strain relationship is developed to describe the uniaxial mechanical behavior in compression for sea ice. It is a one-term, nonlinear model and is simpler ...

Abstract: This state-of-the-art review identifies and discusses the existing methods of predicting the high-cycle fatigue life, their limitations, and base-technology needs. The cycle stress-strain approach ...

Abstract: A method of calculating the creep deflections and predicting the creep collapse of a thin-walled circular cylindrical shell, subject to uniform external radial pressure and arbitrary temperature ...

Abstract: This investigation is concerned with a laterally-loaded bar which is partially embedded in a three-dimensional elastic half space. The loading is assumed to be applied at the unembedded end of ...

Abstract: The stability of a spherical bubble in a two-component two-phase system is examined by employing the thermodynamic theory of dilute solutions. It is shown that a bubble can remain in a state ...

Abstract: A critical review of the methods for evaluating fatigue of metals under simple (proportional) and complex (nonproportional) loadings indicates that most of the criteria are expressed in terms ...

Abstract: Derivation of the constitutive equations of elastic-plastic and elastic-viscoplastic solids at finite deformations is discussed. The deformation is uncoupled by using the Lee-Freund three-configuration ...

Abstract: In recent years there has been a great impetus for the development and application of quantitative methods to correlate and predict the crack initiation and propagation response of materials ...
