Book Inelastic Analysis of Solids and Structures

Download or read book Inelastic Analysis of Solids and Structures written by M. Kojic and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2005-07-28 with total page 419 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inelastic Analysis of Solids and Structures presents in a unified manner the physical and theoretical background of inelastic material models and computational methods, and illustrates the behavior of the models in typical engineering conditions. The book describes experimental observations and principles of mechanics, and efficient computational algorithms for stress calculations as typically performed in finite element analysis. The theoretical background is given to an extent necessary to describe the commonly employed material models in metal isotropic and orthotropic plasticity, thermoplasticity and viscoplasticity, and the plasticity of geological materials. The computational algorithms are developed in a unified manner with some detailed derivations of the algorithmic relations. Many solved examples are presented, which are designed to give insight into the material behavior in various engineering conditions, and to demonstrate the application of the computational algorithms.

Book Applied Stress Analysis of Plastics

Download or read book Applied Stress Analysis of Plastics written by S.I. Krishnamachari and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-27 with total page 612 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a product of the understanding I developed of stress analysis applied to plastics, while at work at L. J. Broutman and Associates (UBA) and as a lecturer in the seminars on this topic co-sponsored by UBA and Society of Plastics Engineers. I believe that by its extent and level of treatment, this book would serve as an easy-to-read desktop reference for professionals, as well as a text book at the junior or senior level in undergraduate programs. The main theme of this book is what to do with computed stress. To approach the theme effectively, I have taken the "stress category ap proach" to stress analysis. Such an approach is being successfully used in the nuclear power field. In plastics, this approach helps in the prediction of long term behavior of structures. To maintain interest I have limited derivations and proofs to a minimum, and provided them, if at all, as flow charts. In this way, I believe that one can see better the connection between the variables, assumptions, and mathematics.

Download or read book Experimental Stress Analysis for Materials and Structures written by Alessandro Freddi and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-03-19 with total page 509 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book summarizes the main methods of experimental stress analysis and examines their application to various states of stress of major technical interest, highlighting aspects not always covered in the classic literature. It is explained how experimental stress analysis assists in the verification and completion of analytical and numerical models, the development of phenomenological theories, the measurement and control of system parameters under operating conditions, and identification of causes of failure or malfunction. Cases addressed include measurement of the state of stress in models, measurement of actual loads on structures, verification of stress states in circumstances of complex numerical modeling, assessment of stress-related material damage, and reliability analysis of artifacts (e.g. prostheses) that interact with biological systems. The book will serve graduate students and professionals as a valuable tool for finding solutions when analytical solutions do not exist.

Book Elastic Plastic Analysis by the Hybrid Stress Model and the Initial Stress Approach

Download or read book Elastic Plastic Analysis by the Hybrid Stress Model and the Initial Stress Approach written by Robert L. Spilker and published by . This book was released on 1973 with total page 95 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: SITE MATERIALS, Structures, Fibers, Mathematical models, Stresses, Stress strain relations, Static loadsFinite element analysisA finite-element elastic-plastic incremental procedure for the static analysis of structures whose initially-isotropic material behavior may be elastic, perfectly-plastic or strain hardening has been developed and implemented in a breadboard computer program. The formulation is based on the assumed-stress hybrid model and the initial stress included by modifying the conventional hybrid functional, resulting in a consistently derived equivalent load vector due to the initial stress. Also included in the formulation is an equivalent load term corresponding to the possible compatibility mismatch at each incremental step. The formulation and the corresponding solution procedure are evaluated using a particular plane-stress example, and convergence of the solution is shown. (Author).

Book Engineering Plasticity

Download or read book Engineering Plasticity written by C. R. Calladine and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2016-10-13 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Engineering Plasticity focuses on certain features of the theory of plasticity that are particularly appropriate to engineering design. Topics covered range from specification of an ideal plastic material to the behavior of structures made of idealized elastic-plastic material, theorems of plastic theory, and rotating discs. Torsion, indentation problems, and slip-line fields are also discussed. This book consists of 12 chapters and begins by providing an engineering background for the theory of plasticity, with emphasis on the use of metals in structural engineering and the nature of physical theories. The reader is then introduced to the general problem of how to set up a model of the plastic behavior of metal for use in analysis and design of structures and forming processes, paying particular attention to the plastic deformation that occurs when a specimen of metal is stressed. Subsequent chapters explore the behavior of a simple structure made of elastic-plastic material; theorems of plastic theory; rotating discs; and indentation problems. Torsion, slip-line fields, and circular plates under transverse loading are also considered, along with wire-drawing and extrusion and the effects of changes in geometry on structure. This monograph is intended for students of engineering.

Book Simplified Theory of Plastic Zones

Download or read book Simplified Theory of Plastic Zones written by Hartwig Hübel and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-06-29 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present book provides a new method to estimate elastic-plastic strains via a series of linear elastic analyses. For a life prediction of structures subjected to variable loads, frequently encountered in mechanical and civil engineering, the cyclically accumulated deformation and the elastic plastic strain ranges are required. The Simplified Theory of Plastic Zones (STPZ) is a direct method which provides the estimates of these and all other mechanical quantities in the state of elastic and plastic shakedown. The STPZ is described in detail, with emphasis on the fact that not only scientists but engineers working in applied fields and advanced students are able to get an idea of the possibilities and limitations of the STPZ. Numerous illustrations and examples are provided to support the reader's understanding.

Book Plastic Theory of Structures

Download or read book Plastic Theory of Structures written by Michael R. Horne and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2014-05-09 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plastic Theory of Structures focuses on the use of plastic theory in design and shows how code requirements are related to theoretical considerations. More specifically, the effect of axial load and shear force on plastic moment capacity is examined, along with biaxial bending, frame and local instability, and the use of partial load factors. The significance of repeated loading in plastic design is also highlighted. Comprised of six chapters, this book begins with an overview of plastic failure and the behavior beyond the elastic limit (with particular emphasis on the failure loads) of structures in which resistance to bending action is the primary means by which the loads are supported. Attention is paid to how the collapse load factor of a given structure may be derived, that is, the structure has been analyzed in relation to plastic collapse. The reader is then introduced to methods of plastic analysis; plastic moments under shear force and axial load; and minimum weight design. The book also considers variable repeated loading before concluding with a chapter on stability and the influence of various structural parameters and appropriate methods for the estimation of failure loads. This monograph will be of interest to civil and structural engineers.

Book A Study of elastic plastic analysis by the assumed stress hybrid finite element model  with application to thick shells of revolution

Download or read book A Study of elastic plastic analysis by the assumed stress hybrid finite element model with application to thick shells of revolution written by Robert L. Spilker and published by . This book was released on 1974 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two numerical methods have been developed, using the assumed-stress hybrid finite-element model as a basis, for the elastic-plastic, small deflection analysis of structures under static loading. The two approaches chosen: the initial-strain approach and the initial stress-approach, result in a set of linear incremental simultaneous algebraic equations to be solved for each increment in applied external loading, with the global stiffness matrix remaining unchanged throughout the loading process and the effects of plasticity included as equivalent loading.
