The problem of small‐deformation, rate‐independent elastoplasticity is treated using convex programming theory and algorithms. A finite‐step variational formulation is first derived after …
In this paper, the feasibility of Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) employing a novel Fibonacy Sequence (FS)-based Optimization Algorithms (OAs) and up-to-date computing …
SUMMARY A new methodology for computational plasticity of nonassociated frictional materials is presented. The new approach is inspired by the micromechanical origins of …
In this paper an anisotropic material model based on non-associated flow rule and mixed isotropic–kinematic hardening was developed and implemented into a user-defined material …
Rail tracks undergo degradation owing to particle breakage and fouling of ballast by various fines including coal and subgrade soil. As the ballast becomes fouled, its strength and …
