The small-deformation limit in elasticity and elastoplasticity in the presence of cracks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Der Grenzwert kleiner Deformationen in Anwesenheit eines gegebenen Risses wird in drei verschiedenen kontinuumsmechanischen Modellen betrachtet. Erstens wird für rein statische Elastizität mit finiter Spannung im Grenzwert kleiner Belastung bewiesen ...

Dual integrals in non-linear fracture mechanics

open access: yesVietnam Journal of Mechanics, 2009
We propose a dual approach in fracture mechanics based on complementary energy. The analysis of the dissipation shows that the thermodynamical force associated with the evolution of a crack is an energy release rate, form of which depends on the presence

Analytical Framework for System‐Level Fragility Surfaces of Reinforced Concrete Bridges Under Mainshock‐Aftershock Sequences

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 13, Page 3264-3284, 25 October 2026.
ABSTRACT Conventional single intensity measure (IM) fragility approaches with simplified component dependency assumptions overlook the progressive damage accumulation and evolving inter‐component correlations that govern system behavior under mainshock‐aftershock (MSAS) loading.

A generalised algorithm for anelastic processes in elastoplasticity and biomechanics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
A computational algorithm for solving anelastic problems in finite deformations is introduced. The presented procedure, termed the Generalised Plasticity Algorithm (GPA) hereafter, takes inspiration from the Return Mapping Algorithm (RMA), which is ...

How Much Physics Should a Neural Network Know? Thermodynamics‐Informed Neural Networks for Rock Constitutive Modeling With Epistemic Uncertainty

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation, Volume 3, Issue 5, October 2026.
Abstract Machine learning offers a flexible route to constitutive modeling, with two emergent questions for geoscience applications: what level of thermodynamic constraint should be embedded in the network architecture, and how should predictive uncertainty be quantified when extrapolating from laboratory to field conditions? We address both challenges

An Implicit Integration Algorithm For Plane Stress Damage Coupled Elastoplasticity

open access: yes, 1999
Boundary value problems based on Continuum Damage Mechanics(CDM) exhibiting damage with plasticity are highly nonlinear and usually, finite element method is employed for solution.

A patch based procedure for stress recovery in elastoplasticity

open access: yes, 2008
The Recovery by Compatibility in Patches (RCP) procedure recently proposed by one of the authors is here extended to the elastoplastic case. It is proposed to effectively reconstruct both the stress and plastic strain fields after each load step and it ...

Microstructure‐Controlled Crack Propagation and Fracture Resistance in MoSiBTiC Alloy Revealed by Multiscale Extended Finite Element Method Modeling

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, Volume 28, Issue 17, 9 September 2026.
A two‐dimensional multiscale finite element analysis framework was established for the first‐generation MoSiBTiC alloy, and the mechanical and fracture‐related parameters of the constituent phases were calibrated through experiments and simulations. The framework provides a basis for analyzing crack propagation behavior in its complex microstructure ...

Molecular Dynamics Studies of Shape Memory Polymers: From Bead–Spring Models to Atomistic Simulations

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, Volume 28, Issue 17, 9 September 2026.
Coarse‐grained (left) and atomistic (right) models of the shape memory polymer ESTANE ETE 75DT3 are shown schematically. The two representations bridge molecular detail and mesoscopic description. Both models capture shape memory behavior, linking segmental mobility and conformational relaxation of anisotropic chains to macroscopic recovery, and ...

An Experimental Method for Capturing Cyclic Deformation with Large Elastoplastic Strain Exceeding ±50% in Structural Steel

open access: yesce/papers, Volume 9, Issue 2-3, Page 2677-2681, September 2026.
Abstract Cyclic deformation with large elastoplastic strain appears in the ultimate behavior of steel structures during earthquakes. Accurate fracture simulation of structural steel components under large deformation is therefore critical for ensuring structural reliability and safety.
