The springback phenomenon that occur in thin metal sheets after forming is mainly a stress driven problem, and the magnitude is roughly proportional to the ratio between the magnitude of the residual stresses after forming and Young’s modulus. An accurate prediction of residual stresses puts, however, high demands on the material modeling. A phenomenological plasticity model is made up of sever...

in this paper, an analytical solution for computing the linear plastic stresses and critical pressure in a fgm hollow cylinder under the internal pressure due to non-axisymmetric loads is developed. it has been assumed that the modulus of elasticity was varying through thickness of the fgm material according to a power law relationship. the poisson's ratio was considered constant throughou...

A closed-form analytical solution to rheological phenomena is obtained based on Hoek-Brown (HB) yield criterion and the generalized Bingham model. Once circular tunnel excavated, an initial plastic region formed. When total stresses fulfil condition, steps into viscoplastic region, in which displacement develops with time. The one-dimensional constitutive equation of model transformed a three-d...

This work investigates plastic deformation around non-metallic inclusions in rolling contact fatigue applications. Subsurface stresses from Hertzian theory are applied form of far-field loading on an elasto-plastic micro-mechanical model isolated inclusion. Initial and cyclic micro-scale plasticity quantified, assuming linear kinematic hardening for the steel matrix elastic or perfectly behavio...
