RISWrinkling Phenomena in Neo-Hookean Film/Substrate Bilayers
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Wrinkling modes are determined for a two-layer system comprised of a neo-Hookean film bonded to an infinitely deep neo-Hookean substrate with the entire bilayer undergoing compression. The full ...
The 2011 Koiter Lecture: The Simple Logic of Classical Nonlinear Thermodynamic Shell Theory
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A classical nonlinear thermodynamic theory of elastic shells is derived by specializing the three-dimensional equations of motion and the second law of thermodynamics to a very general, shell-like ...
A Note on the Path-Dependence of the J-Integral Near a Stationary Crack in an Elastic-Plastic Material With Finite Deformation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this technical brief, we compute the J-integral near a crack-tip in an elastic-perfectly-plastic material. Finite deformation is accounted for, and the apparent discrepancies between the prior ...
Perturbation Finite Element Transfer Matrix Method for Random Eigenvalue Problems of Uncertain Structures
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The rapid computation of random eigenvalue problems of uncertain structures is the key point in structural dynamics, and it is prerequisite to the efficient dynamic analysis and optimal design ...
Negative Effective Mass Density of One Dimensional Hierarchical Metacomposite
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A theoretical model of onedimensional (1D) hierarchical metacomposite with internal resonators was proposed to generate negative effective mass over specific frequency ranges. Different from the singleresonator microstructure, ...
Response of a Rotating Shaft to Uniaxial Random Excitation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Random vibrations are considered for a Jeffcott rotor subject to uniaxial broadband random excitation by a lateral force along one of its transverse axes. Exact analytical solution for mean ...
Rice’s Internal Variables Formalism and Its Implications for the Elastic and Conductive Properties of Cracked Materials, and for the Attempts to Relate Strength to Stiffness
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Rice’s internal variables formalism [1975, “Continuum Mechanics and Thermodynamics of Plasticity in Relation to Microscale Deformation Mechanisms,” in Constitutive Equations in Plasticity, edited by ...
Simulation of Constrained Mechanical Systems — Part I: An Equation of Motion
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents an equation of motion for numerical simulation of constrained mechanical systems with holonomic and nonholonomic constraints. In order to avoid the error accumulation typically ...
The Influence of Dimensionality on the Rate of Diffusive Escape From an Energy Well
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A commonly used idealization when describing separation of a chemical bond between molecules is that of an energy well which prescribes the dependence of energy of interaction between the ...
Dual Solutions for the Magnetohydrodynamic Stagnation-Point Flow of a Power-Law Fluid Over a Shrinking Sheet
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: We show that there exist bounded self-similar solutions to the steady state problem of the MHD stagnation point flow of a power-law fluid over a shrinking sheet. We then discuss the stability ...
