Generalization of hysteresis modeling to anisotropic materials

Modeling failure of soft anisotropic materials with application to arteries.

The arterial wall is a composite where the preferred orientation of collagen fibers induces anisotropy. Though the hyperelastic theories of fiber-reinforced composites reached a high level of sophistication and showed a reasonable correspondence with the available experimental data they are short of the failure description. Following the tradition of strength of materials the failure criteria a...

ویژگی های زمین شیمیایی، کانی شناسی، و میکرومورفولوژیکی خاک ها و سنگ مادر مربوطه در منطقه بین بخش های جنوبی زاگرس و خلیج فارس تا دریای عمان(استان هرمزگان، ایران) مورد بررسی قرار گرفت. هدف های این مطالعه شناسایی تغییرات در خصوصیات فیزیکی، شیمیایی، و ترکیب کانی شناسی خاک، مطالعه میکرومورفولوژی و تکامل خاک، و بررسی توزیع عنصر خاک بر اساس هوازدگی، پروسه های خاک و زمین شناسی جهت توصیف اثرات مواد مادر...

A Unified Framework for Modeling Hysteresis in Ferroic Materials

This paper addresses the development of a unified framework for quantifying hysteresis and constitutive nonlinearities inherent to ferroelectric, ferromagnetic and ferroelastic materials. Because the mechanisms which produce hysteresis vary substantially at the microscopic level, it is more natural to initiate model development at the mesoscopic, or lattice, level where the materials share comm...

A Theoretical Study of Wall Ironing for Anisotropic Workharden Materials

An incremental stress-based constitutive modeling on anisotropic damaged materials

An 'incremental form' of anisotropic damage constitutive equation is proposed both for brittle and ductile materials. Based on the concept of irreversible thermodynamics that damage processes are history independent coupled with irreversible energy dissipation, two types of definition for damage representation are established, known as damage tensor D and damage strain tensor nd, to describe co...
