A multiscale constitutive model for intergranular stress corrosion cracking in type 304 austenitic stainless steel [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Intergranular stress corrosion cracking (IGSCC) is a fracture mechanism in sensitised austenitic stainless steels exposed to critical environments where the intergranular cracks extends along the network of connected susceptible grain boundaries.

A non-monotonic constitutive model is not necessary to obtain shear banding phenomena in entangled polymer solutions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
In 1975 Doi and Edwards predicted that entangled polymer melts and solutions can have a constitutive instability, signified by a decreasing stress for shear rates greater than the inverse of the reptation time.

Structure-based finite strain modelling of the human left ventricle in diastole [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Finite strain analyses of the left ventricle provide important information on heart function and have the potential to provide insights into the biomechanics of myocardial contractility in health and disease. Systolic dysfunction is the most common cause

Constitutive model for plasticity in an amorphous polycarbonate [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
A constitutive model for describing the mechanical response of an amorphous glassy polycarbonate is proposed. The model is based on an isotropic elastic phase surrounded by an SO(3) continuum of plastic phases onto which the elastic phase can collapse ...

Universality of shear-banding instability and crystallization in sheared granular fluid [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The linear stability analysis of an uniform shear flow of granular materials is revisited using several cases of a Navier-Stokes'-level constitutive model in which we incorporate the global equation of states for pressure and thermal conductivity (which ...

On the determination of constitutive parametersin a hyperelastic model for a soft tissue [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The aim of this paper is to study a model of hyperelastic materials and itsapplications into soft tissue mechanics. In particular, we first determine an unbounded domain of the constitutive parameters of the model making our smoothstrain energy function ...

The creep behavior of simple structures with a stress range-dependent constitutive model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
High temperature design remains an issue for many components in a variety of industries. Although finite element analysis for creep is now an accessible tool, most analyses outside the research domain use long standing and very simple constitutive models

Modelling, identification and application of phenomenological constitutive laws over a large strain rate and temperature range [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
A review of the different phenomenological thermo-viscoplastic constitutive models often applied to forging and machining processes is presented. Several of the most common models have been identified using a large experimental database (Hor et al., 2013)

A Solution Set-Based Entropy Principle for Constitutive Modeling in Mechanics

open access: yes, 2018
Entropy principles based on thermodynamic consistency requirements are widely used for constitutive modeling in continuum mechanics, providing physical constraints on a priori unknown constitutive functions. The well-known M\"uller-Liu procedure is based
