On proportional deformation paths in hypoplasticity

On selection of candidate paths for proportional routing

QoS routing involves selection of paths for flows based on the knowledge at network nodes about the availability of resources along paths, and the QoS requirements of flows. Several QoS routing schemes have been proposed that differ in the way they gather information about the network state and select paths using this information. Most of these schemes can be categorized as best path routing wh...

Fe-investigations on Shear Localizations in Granular Bodies within Hypoplasticity

A spontaneous shear localization in granular bodies is investigated with a finite element method based on a hypoplastic constitutive model. To simulate properly the formation of shear zones, a hypoplastic model was extended by polar, non-local and gradient terms to take into account a characteristic length of the microstructure. Two different rate boundary value problems were numerically analyz...

Regularization Paths for Cox's Proportional Hazards Model via Coordinate Descent.

We introduce a pathwise algorithm for the Cox proportional hazards model, regularized by convex combinations of ℓ1 and ℓ2 penalties (elastic net). Our algorithm fits via cyclical coordinate descent, and employs warm starts to find a solution along a regularization path. We demonstrate the efficacy of our algorithm on real and simulated data sets, and find considerable speedup between our algori...

Granular hypoplasticity with Cosserat effects

This paper provides an extension to Cosserat mechanics of a recently proposed version of hypoplasticity [1], and this extension is achieved economically by means of a novel complex-variable formulation of Cosserat theory. The present work represents a compact synthesis and theoretical framework for both non-polar and polar hypoplasticity, and it encompasses various special cases considered in t...
