Capturing Complex Rate‐Dependent Behaviors of Saturated Clays: A Fractional Consistency Kinematic Hardening Viscoplastic Approach

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, Volume 50, Issue 8, Page 3281-3296, 10 June 2026.
ABSTRACT Saturated high plasticity clays show complex nonlinear, rate‐dependent, and hysteresis behaviors under non‐monotonic stress paths, requiring advanced mathematical constitutive equations for accurate description. Taking into account the inherent advantages of kinematic hardening mechanisms in simulating complex stress histories, this paper ...

Viscoplastic Modeling the Evolving Mechanical Properties of Shotcrete 3D Printing Material

open access: yesProceedings in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, Volume 26, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT In recent years, additive manufacturing in construction (AMC) has gradually influenced the building industry by offering a faster and more efficient way to build with concrete. Unlike traditional methods that rely on molds, AMC deposits material layer by layer through an automated process, enabling new possibilities for custom designs and ...

Unraveling the Mystery of Melt Migration in Migmatites: From Channeling Instability to Pattern Formation

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Melt migration in partially molten rocks is commonly described by porous flow models controlled by the hydro‐mechanical compaction length, which effectively explains melt extraction at mid‐ocean ridges. However, this framework cannot account for the paradoxical accumulation of small melt fractions into rhythmic leucosome–melanosome bands in ...

Lower bound for LCF lifetime and its application to safe design of elastic viscoplastic structures

open access: yes, 2006
The theory of shakedown is applied to obtain an upper estimation of LCF lifetime of structures. A model of elastic viscoplastic material similar to the Perzyna one with isotropic strain hardening and isotropic damage is adopted. Assumptions: viscoplastic

Modelling the time dependent behaviour of anisotropic soft clay using non-stationary flow surface theory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Prediction of the long-term deformation of a soft clay under different loading conditions has been a challenging task for geotechnical engineering since the time dependency of soft clay is a complex matter.

A Thermodynamic Framework for Turing‐Type Instabilities in Porous Media: Part I Theory

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Pattern formation in geological materials is commonly described using analogies to Turing‐type reaction–diffusion systems, yet a unifying thermodynamic explanation remains elusive. Here we develop a multiscale, thermodynamically consistent framework for pattern‐forming instabilities in porous media undergoing coupled thermo–hydro–mechanical ...

An elastic/viscoplastic finite element model for predicting polymerization stresses in light-activated dental composites

open access: yes, 2003
The purpose of this paper is to apply a finite deformation, elastic/viscoplastic approach to predict curing stresses in three light-cured dental composites, using Perzyna\u27s theory.

Modeling Full‐Stage Rock Creep: A Perzyna Viscoplastic Approach Incorporating Damage and Strain Energy Theory

open access: yesGeofluids, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Under high‐level stress, the internal damage of rock accumulates over time, leading to significant nonlinearity in creep. However, traditional linear element combination models struggle to describe the creep behavior of rock in the accelerated creep stage. The creep mechanism is analyzed from the perspective of internal energy, and a new creep model is

Non-Associated Flow Rule-Based Elasto-Viscoplastic Model for Clay

open access: yes, 2020
We develop a non-associated flow rule (NAFR)-based elasto-viscoplastic (EVP) model for isotropic clays. For the model formulation, we introduce the critical state soil mechanics theory (CSSMT), the bounding surface theory and Perzyna’s overstress ...
