Residual strain of initially curved elasto-viscoplastic bars due to longitudinal impact.

Thermo-elasto-viscoplastic Analysis of Problems in Extension and Shear

The problems of extension and shear behavior of structural elements made of carbon steel and subjected to large thermomechanical loads are investigated. The analysis is based on nonlinear geometric and constitutive relations, and is expressed in a rate form. The materiai constitutive eqtiations arc capab!e of reproducing all nonisothermal, elasto-viscoplastic characteristics. The results of the...

Longitudinal Motion of an Elasto - Plastic Bar

Fundamentals of elasto-inertial particle focusing in curved microfluidic channels.

Elasto-inertial focusing in viscoelastic fluids has attracted increasing interest in recent years due to its potential applications in particle counting and sorting. However, current investigations of the elasto-inertial focusing mechanisms have mainly been focused on simple straight channels with little attention being paid to curved channels. Herein, we experimentally explore the elasto-inert...

Shear Localization due to Strain Softening in Side Pressed Cylinders

In this paper, shear localization due to strain softening in sidepressed cylinders, is inverstigated. Shear localization causes formation of macroscopic shear bands which can be obsserved in the metallographic cross-section. In this paper, for the first time a method is presented in which a simple two-slice model is used to study the formation of shear bands. The results obtained form this mode...
