The influence of the shape electrode-indentor (cylindrical and parallelepiped with a rounded contact surface) on stress-strain state plate made aluminum alloy AMg6 after their impact interaction at speed 10m/s was evaluated by method numerical modeling. Features creation use developed mathematical models are described. distribution along thickness values main parameters components state, as wel...

Specimens of intact wall tubes of human common carotid arteries (CCA), internal carotid arteries (ICA) (n = 11, age 77.6 yr, SD 6.3), and related adventitia and media-intima tubes are mechanically examined. Cyclic, quasi-static extension-inflation tests at different axial stretches are performed on preconditioned tube specimens. Stress-free configurations show significant stress releases in the...

The residual stresses created by deep drawing of AISI-1010 cups were investigated by means of neutron diffraction. The wall thickness of the cups was below 3.0 mm, for which 8–10 through-thickness measurements were conducted. It was found that the axial, and tangential stress profiles are similar to what is expected from a bending–unbending operation, but it also exhibits a strong dependence on...

In this paper, the pulsatile flow of blood through an inclined catheterized stenosed artery is analyzed. Perturbation method is used to solve the implicit system of partial differential equations with suitable boundary conditions. Various analytical expressions axial velocity, flow rate, wall shear stress and effective viscosity have been derived with the help of MATLAB for understanding the fl...

A 3D finite element simulation of the behavior a prismatic sample magnesium-aluminum composite material AMg6-AD1-MA2-1 with an elliptical defect in AD1 layer under axial tension was carried out, its strength and change stress-strain state were determined when thickness varied from 5 to 1, 25 mm. during perforation transfer MA2-1 revealed.

The work presented in this paper is related to the determination of the creep properties for a P91 pipe weldment at 625 C, which forms part of a collaborative European project (Weldon). A Kachanov type, one damage variable, multi-axial material behaviour model was used to represent the material creep behaviour. The uniaxial material constants for the parent material and weld metal were determin...

Multi-axial fatigue life assessment is important in power generation, aerospace, automotive, and many other industries. The newly developed path-dependent multi-axial cycle counting and fatigue life assessment method has been shown effective for some applications. For instance, when stress range is used as the only driving force for fatigue failure, the method correlates high cycle fatigue test...

3D formulation of incremental relations, describing pre-failure deformations of granular soils, is presented. The starting point are respective equations formulated previously for the axi-symmetrical configuration, as that in the tri-axial apparatus. These relations, proposed for particular configuration, are generalized in the form of tensor equations for the strain increments. Similarly, the ...

Steady state axisymmetric deformations of an elastic perfectly plastic target being penetrated by a fast moving rigid cylindrical rod have been analyzed by the finite element method. The target is assumed to obey the yon Mises yield criterion and the associated flow rule. Contact between target and penetrator has been assumed to be smooth. A mixed formulation, in which two components of the vel...
