The Material Constitution

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2016
What is the material context of constitutional order? The purpose of this paper is to offer an answer to that question by sketching a theory of the material constitution. Distinguishing it from related approaches, in particular sociological constitutionalism, Marxist constitutionalism, and political jurisprudence, the paper outlines the basic elements ...

Advanced layer material constitution

Thin Solid Films, 1987
Abstract The increasing knowledge and understanding of the interrelations between the constitution, microstructure and properties of materials are the basis for the development of so-called advanced materials. In particular, ceramic bulk materials, metastable structures and special coatings for various applications are material groups of high ...

Material Symmetry and Constitutive Equations

Ingenieur-Archiv, 1980
Constitutive equations which are relations between tensors are considered. It is shown how the restrictions which are imposed on the form of such relations by symmetry of the material can be obtained in canonical form.

Constitutive Equations of Elastic Polycrystalline Materials

Archive for Rational Mechanics and Analysis, 1999
The authors present a group-theoretical characterization of elastic polycrystalline materials. In order to achieve this, the constitutive equation for Cauchy stress is considered to depend not only on the deformation gradient but also on a set of so-called material ``descriptors'' (examples of which are lattice vectors of a unit cell of a crystallite ...

On Material Constitutional Thought

2020
This chapter proposes a methodological approach to the study of constitutions that goes beyond the written text and jurisprudence in order to incorporate the material structure of society. It interprets the factual organization and exercise of power that is allowed and enabled by foundational institutions, rules, and procedures.

The Material Constitution

2020
Abstract This chapter explores the way in which several authors understood the relationship between the material constitution and constituent power, and how that understanding affected their views about the legal limits of the ordinary power of constitutional reform. Part I begins with a brief examination of the historical development of

Constitutive Equations for Damaging Materials

Journal of Applied Mechanics, 1983
The paper focuses on the derivation of the constitutive law for a material containing flat, planar microcracks. The damage law is derived from the dissipation potential in conjunction with the orthogonality principle. The dissipation potential is shown to exist in the space of conjugate thermodynamic forces related to the stress intensity factors. Both

Constitutive Laws for Pseudo-Elastic Materials

Journal of Intelligent Material Systems and Structures, 1992
In this paper a new model of pseudo-elastic materials based on experimen tal observations of one-dimensional motions of SMA materials is introduced. The model incorporates phase fractions as an internal variable and allows for both reversible (elastic) and irreversible (plastic) modes inside the hysteresis loop. As such, the model accounts for a wider
