Investigation of the accuracy of Digital Image Correlation (DIC) in measuring full-field strain for timber materials [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2023 As one of the most successful techniques in experimental mechanics, digital image correlation (DIC) has been widely used to measure the motion and deformation of solid materials, especially in situations where non-contact measurement is required.

A finite element procedure for the analysis of thermo-mechanical solids in contact [PDF]
Computers & Structures, 2000 Abstract We present a finite element procedure for the analysis of fully coupled thermo-elasto-plastic response of solids including contact conditions. The continuum mechanics formulation for the solid and contact conditions is summarized and effective finite element techniques for solution are given.

Inverse problems with the digital image correlation: approach and applications
Fracture and Structural Integrity, 2021 A viable approach to solve inverse problems in elasticity is proposed. It is based on regression algorithms to estimate materials and/or loading parameters by fitting the experimentally-evaluated displacement field to representative analytical solutions.

Strain-Dependent Solid Surface Stress and the Stiffness of Soft Contacts
Physical Review X, 2017 Surface stresses have recently emerged as a key player in the mechanics of highly compliant solids. The classic theories of contact mechanics describe adhesion with a compliant substrate as a competition between surface energies driving deformation to ...

Relationship between contact stiffness, contact depth, and mechanical properties for indentation in linear viscoelastic solids using axisymmetric indenters [PDF]
Structural Control and Health Monitoring, 2006 We derive a relationship between the initial unloading slope, contact depth, and the instantaneous relaxation modulus for indentation in linear viscoelastic solids by a rigid indenter with an arbitrary axisymmetric smooth profile.

Solid viscoelasticity in contact mechanics and elastohydrodynamic lubrication
, 2022 Driven by the urgent need for transition to new sustainable technology in terms of use of resources and generated waste products, optimal efficiency is of crucial importance. Energy losses at any scale in machines of old (transitional) and new technology and processes need be minimized and performance and service life maximized.

Fixed Point Theory and Algorithms for Sciences and Engineering, 2022 This paper starts off by the celebrated Knaster–Kuratowski–Mazurkiewicz principle in the formulation by Ky Fan. We provide a novel variant of this principle and build an existence theory for extended real-valued equilibrium problems with general, then ...

Computational and experimental diagnostics of the shear properties of greases [PDF]
MATEC Web of Conferences, 2021 The study of the properties of consistent and liquid oils is currently receiving much attention in tribology. This is because lubrication is one of the most effective ways to improve machine durability.

A Discrete Approach to Meshless Lagrangian Solid Modeling
Computation, 2017 The author demonstrates a stable Lagrangian solid modeling method, tracking the interactions of solid mass particles rather than using a meshed grid. This numerical method avoids the problem of tensile instability often seen with smooth particle applied ...
