Analyticity of the solution of a plane elastoplastic problem

Elastoplastic problems of the theory of ideal plasticity were studied numerically by the method of small parameter in the monographs [1–3], and strengthening elastoplastic problems were studied in the monograph [4], where a rather complete bibliography of studies in this direction is given. The conditions for the continuous dependence of the the stress-strain state characteristics on the boundary conditions and the material inhomogeneity are defined using the implicit function theorem in [5, 6]. In the present paper, in the framework of the perturbation method, we determine the stress state in a cylindrical tube with nearly circular boundaries under the action of pressure. Using the implicit function theorem, we examine the existence and uniqueness of the solution of the problem. We show that its solution can be obtained in the case of any analytic shape of the boundary and any number of material physical-mechanical characteristics depending on finitely many small parameters. The results can be generalized to more complicated models of media. The results obtained in this paper are compared with already known results.     

Influence of the material hardening and compressibility on the solution of elastoplastic deformation problems for a space with a cylindrical cavity

The present paper deals with plane deformation problems (ɛ _z = 0) concerned with elastoplastic deformation of a space with a cylindrical cavity in the case where the load is given either at infinity or on the cavity surface. It is assumed that the material obeys the relations of the theory of flow with isotropic hardening and the von Mises plasticity condition. The effects of the elastic compressibility (Poisson’s ratio) and the coefficient of linear hardening on the stress-strain state are studied. The influence of the linear hardening is shown to be small, while that of the elastic compressibility is shown to be quite significant.     

An approximate statical solution of the elastoplastic interface for the problem of Galin with a cohesive-frictional material

An approximate statically admissible solution of the elastoplastic interface is described for the plane strain problem of a pressurized circular hole in a plane subject to a non-hydrostatic stress at infinity (Problem of Galin). In contrast to the solution of Galin (Prikl. Mat. Mekh.10, 365–386 (1946)) which applies for the case of a frictionless Tresca material, it is assumed that the material is characterized by a cohesivc-frictional yield strength. The solution of the elasloplastic interface is obtained in the form of a truncated series expansion, for cases where the material has yielded all around the hole. The paper discusses the limiting conditions for which the solution is applicable, and the validity of the solution in regard to an elastoplastic problem.     

A theoretical solution of cylindrically isotropic cylindrical tube for axisymmetric plane strain dynamic thermoelastic problem

A dynamic thermoelastic solution of a cylindrically isotropic cylindrical tube or solid cylinder with axisymmetric plane deformations is developed. Since there exist thermal boundary conditions and tractions on the two surfaces of a cylindrical tube, the problem under consideration is with inhomogeneous boundary conditions. Therefore we introduce a special function to transform the inhomogeneous boundary conditions to homogeneous ones for an unknown function. Then by using the method of separation of variables, the unknown function can be expressed as the multiplication series of Bessel functions and unknown time functions. Thirdly, by virtue of the orthogonal properties of Bessel functions, the equations about these unknown time functions are derived and the solutions are obtained. Finally, the displacement is obtained by adding the two parts mentioned above. By means of the present method, integral transform can be avoided. It is suitable for arbitrary thermal loads and mechanical loads. Numerical results are also presented for thermal shocked, cylindrically isotropic cylindrical tube and solid cylinder.

A general analytic solution for plane strain bending under tension for strain-hardening material at large strains

A new analytic solution for plane strain bending under tension of a sheet is proposed for elastic-plastic, isotropic, incompressible, strain-hardening material at large strains. Numerical treatment is only necessary to calculate ordinary integrals and solve transcendental equations. No restriction is imposed on the hardening law. All governing equations and boundary conditions are exactly satisfied. The only exception is that the actual stress distribution over the ends of the sheet is replaced with a concentrated force and a concentrated bending moment. The through-thickness distribution of residual stresses and a measure of springback are also found. The range of validity of the solution is determined. An illustrative example is provided for Swift’s hardening law.     

Exact solution of rotating FGM shaft problem in the elastoplastic state of stress

Plane strain analytical solutions to estimate purely elastic, partially plastic and fully plastic deformation behavior of rotating functionally graded (FGM) hollow shafts are presented. The modulus of elasticity of the shaft material is assumed to vary nonlinearly in the radial direction. Tresca’s yield criterion and its associated flow rule are used to formulate three different plastic regions for an ideal plastic material. By considering different material compositions as well as a wide range of bore radii, it is demonstrated in this article that both the elastic and the elastoplastic responses of a rotating FGM hollow shaft are affected significantly by the material nonhomogeneity.     

Boundary effects on behaviour of granular material during plane strain compression

The paper investigates the boundary effect on the behaviour of granular materials during plane strain compression using finite element method. A micro-polar hypoplastic constitutive model was used. The numerical calculations were carried out with different initial densities and boundary conditions. The behaviour of initially dense, medium dense and loose sand specimen with very smooth or very rough horizontal boundary was investigated. The formation of shear zones gave rise to different global and local stress and strain. Comparisons of the mobilized internal friction, dilatancy and non-coaxiality between global and local quantities were made.     

New solution of the plane problem for an equilibrium crack

We consider the classical plane problem of elasticity about a crack in an isotropic elastic unbounded plane resulting in a singular solution for the stresses near the crack edge. Relations of generalized elasticity with a small parameter characterizing the medium microstructure are derived, and the higher order of these relations permits eliminating the singularity of the classical solution. An experimental method for determining the medium parameter is proposed, and the corresponding experimental results are given.     

Global solution to the incompressible viscous-multipolar material problem

In the paper we give a proof of the global existence of the weak solution to the initial-boundary-value problem describing an incompressible elasto-viscous-multipolar material in finite geometry.

An approximate solution to the problem of cone or wedge indentation of elastoplastic solids

The model developed in this Note makes it possible to determine the value of the mean indentation pressure usually named hardness from the elastoplastic properties of materials and also the shape of the cone or that of the wedge. The approximation rests upon the definition of a linear elastic solid which has the same indentation pressure as the material actually indented. Cases of cone and wedge indentation are studied. A method to determine the uniaxial stress–strain curve of materials from indentation tests is given. The results are validated using finite element simulations. To cite this article: G.
