Book A Non linear Elastic Constitutive Framework for Replicating Plastic Deformation in Solids

Download or read book A Non linear Elastic Constitutive Framework for Replicating Plastic Deformation in Solids written by and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ductile metals and other materials typically deform plastically under large applied loads; a behavior most often modeled using plastic deformation constitutive models. However, it is possible to capture some of the key behaviors of plastic deformation using only the framework for nonlinear elastic mechanics. In this paper, we develop a phenomenological, hysteretic, nonlinear elastic constitutive model that captures many of the features expected of a plastic deformation model. This model is based on calculating a secant modulus directly from a material's stress-strain curve. Scalar stress and strain values are obtained in three dimensions by using the von Mises invariants. Hysteresis is incorporated by tracking an additional history variable and assuming an elastic unloading response. This model is demonstrated in both single- and multi-element simulations under varying strain conditions.

  • Author : Vlado A Lubarda
  • Publisher : CRC Press
  • Release : 2019-08-30
  • ISBN : 9780367397128
  • Pages : 648 pages

Download or read book Elastoplasticity Theory written by Vlado A Lubarda and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2019-08-30 with total page 648 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understanding the elastoplastic deformation of metals and geomaterials, including the constitutive description of the materials and analysis of structure undergoing plastic deformation, is an essential part of the background required by mechanical, civil, and geotechnical engineers as well as materials scientists. However, most books address the subject at a introductory level and within the infinitesimal strain context. Elastoplasticity Theory takes a different approach in an advanced treatment presented entirely within the framework of finite deformation. This comprehensive, self-contained text includes an introduction to nonlinear continuum mechanics and nonlinear elasticity. In addition to in-depth analysis of the mathematical and physical theories of plasticity, it furnishes an up-to-date look at contemporary topics, such as plastic stability and localization, monocrystalline plasticity, micro-to-macro transition, and polycrysalline plasticity models. Elastoplasticity Theory reflects recent trends and advances made in the theory of plasticity over the last four decades. It will not only help stimulate further research in the field, but will enable its readers to confidently select the appropriate constitutive models for the materials or structural members relevant to their own applications.

Book Advances in Fluid Solid Coupling Processes between Fractures and Porous Rocks  Experimental and Numerical Investigation

Download or read book Advances in Fluid Solid Coupling Processes between Fractures and Porous Rocks Experimental and Numerical Investigation written by Shiming Wei and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hydraulic fracturing is the key measure for improving recovery of unconventional oil and gas reservoirs. Prediction of fracture morphology and productivity after fracturing is critical for fracturing design and optimization. The hydraulic fracturing process is to open porous rocks by artificially injecting highly compressed fluid, and the hydraulic fracture will be closed under the compaction of in-situ stress during the production process. In this regard, hydraulic fracturing and production processes are both fluid-solid coupling processes involving fractures and porous rocks. This Research Topic aims to gather the latest studies addressing how to improve the prediction accuracy of hydraulic fracturing morphology and post-fracturing productivity through experimental and numerical investigation. The experimental research shall underline hydraulic fracturing and fracture conductivity experiments and associated experimental methods, while the numerical research shall pay particular attention to discrete fracture network models, including the calculation efficiency and accuracy as well as the applicability.

Book Troubleshooting Finite Element Modeling with Abaqus

Download or read book Troubleshooting Finite Element Modeling with Abaqus written by Raphael Jean Boulbes and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-09-06 with total page 439 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book gives Abaqus users who make use of finite-element models in academic or practitioner-based research the in-depth program knowledge that allows them to debug a structural analysis model. The book provides many methods and guidelines for different analysis types and modes, that will help readers to solve problems that can arise with Abaqus if a structural model fails to converge to a solution. The use of Abaqus affords a general checklist approach to debugging analysis models, which can also be applied to structural analysis. The author uses step-by-step methods and detailed explanations of special features in order to identify the solutions to a variety of problems with finite-element models. The book promotes: • a diagnostic mode of thinking concerning error messages; • better material definition and the writing of user material subroutines; • work with the Abaqus mesher and best practice in doing so; • the writing of user element subroutines and contact features with convergence issues; and • consideration of hardware and software issues and a Windows HPC cluster solution. The methods and information provided facilitate job diagnostics and help to obtain converged solutions for finite-element models regarding structural component assemblies in static or dynamic analysis. The troubleshooting advice ensures that these solutions are both high-quality and cost-effective according to practical experience. The book offers an in-depth guide for students learning about Abaqus, as each problem and solution are complemented by examples and straightforward explanations. It is also useful for academics and structural engineers wishing to debug Abaqus models on the basis of error and warning messages that arise during finite-element modelling processing.

Book Polymer Photodegradation

Download or read book Polymer Photodegradation written by J.F. Rabek and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 679 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the last two decades, the production of polymers and plastics has been increasing rapidly. In spite of developing new polymers and polymeric materials, only 40~60 are used commercially on a large scale. It has been estimated that half of the annual production of polymers is employed outdoors. The photochemical instability of most polymers limits their outdoor application as they are photodegraded quickly over periods from months to a few years. To the despair of technologists and consumers alike, photodegradation and environmental ageing of polymers occur much faster than can be expected from knowledge collected in laboratories. In order to improve polymer photostability there has been a very big effort during the last 30 years to understand the mechanisms involved in photodegradation and environmental ageing. This book represents the author's attempt, based on his 25 years' experience in research on photodegradation and photo stabilization, to collect and generalize a number of available data on the photodegradation of polymers. The space limitation and the tremendous number of publications in the past two decades have made a detailed presentation of all important results and data difficult. The author apologizes to those whose work has not been quoted or widely presented in this book. Because many published results are very often contradictory, it has been difficult to present a fully critical review of collected knowledge, without antagonizing authors. For that reason, all available theories, mechanisms and different suggestions have been presented together, and only practice can evaluate which of them are valid.
