The double impulse is introduced as a substitute of the fling-step near-fault ground motion. A closed-form solution of the elastic-plastic response of a structure on compliant (flexible) ground by the ‘critical double impulse’ is derived for the first ...

High resolution incremental stress testing of crushable granular materials [PDF]
The incremental behaviour of crushable sands is investigated by means of a Discrete Element Method (DEM) based analogue. The DEM sample is subjected to a comprehensive set of small stress perturbations in the triaxial plane in order to identify the basic

Elastic-Plastic Response of Pipe under Collision
It is necessary to have a comprehensive understanding of the structural response under collision to design offshore structures against possible accidents. A general procedure based on theoretical analyses to classify the elastic responses of frame structures under collision has been reported by the authors.

The behavior of statically-indeterminate structural members and frames with cracks present [PDF]
Arts et Métiers ParisTech, invitation en tant que professeur invité de Paul C. Paris au LAMEFIPCrack stability is discussed as affected by their presence in statically-indeterminate beams, frames, rings, etc. loaded into the plastic range.

A fully implicit multi-axial solution strategy for direct ratchet boundary evaluation : theoretical development [PDF]
Ensuring sufficient safety against ratchet is a fundamental requirement in pressure vessel design. Determining the ratchet boundary can prove difficult and computationally expensive when using a full elastic-plastic finite element analysis and a number ...

The Bree problem with different yield stresses on-load and off-load and application to creep ratcheting [PDF]
The ratchet boundaries and ratchet strains are derived for the Bree problem and an elastic perfectly plastic material with different yield stresses on-load and off-load.

An equi-spaced consecutive impulse input is treated as a simplified representative for a long-duration earthquake ground motion. The key property of such input can be captured approximately by using harmonic waves.

Performance characteristics of recycled concrete aggregate as an unbound pavement material
Use of recycled concrete aggregates (RCA) as a pavement material is one of the most sustainable engineering applications for the pavement industry. Investigation on the performance characteristics of RCA, such as elastic and plastic deformations of RCA ...

Bending deformation driven by molecular rotation
In recent years, certain molecular crystals have been reported to possess surprising flexibility by undergoing significant elastic or plastic deformation in response to mechanical loads. However, despite this experimental evidence, there currently exists
