New methodology for calculating damage variables evolution in Plastic Damage Model for RC structures [PDF]
The behavior of reinforced concrete (RC) structures under severe demands, as strong ground motions, is highly complex; this is mainly due to joint operation of concrete and steel, with several coupled failure modes.

Cyclic plasticity model for fatigue with softening behaviour below macroscopic yielding
Experimental observations have evidenced the insufficiency of yield surface definition via monotonic loading to guarantee adequate description of material behaviour under fatigue tests.

Cyclic Attractors Are Critical for Macrophage Differentiation, Heterogeneity, and Plasticity
Adaptability, heterogeneity, and plasticity are the hallmarks of macrophages. How these complex properties emerge from the molecular interactions is an open question. Thus, in this study we propose an actualized regulatory network of cytokines, signaling

A simplified creep-reverse plasticity solution method for bodies subjected to cyclic loading [PDF]
An extension of the upper bound shakedown theorem to load histories in excess of shakedown has been applied recently to the evaluation of a ratchet limit and the varying plastic strain magnitudes associated with a varying residual stress field. Solutions
