DESCRIPTION:
A significant advance in the science of engineering Zenon Mroz is considered to be a leading authority in the field. In this book, he makes a major contribution to the theory of plasticity by generalizing his 1967 multi-surface hardening model. He accomplishes the generalization by making all surfaces of the model move--an innovation he conceived in 1991 at the Tucson conference on Constitutive L
This collection of papers is a state of the art presentation of theories and methods related to the problem of the behaviour of mechanical structures under variable loads beyond their elastic limit In particular, the problems of shakedown, ratchetting, transient and asymptotic cyclic states are addressed. The industrial application of cyclic plasticity to the analysis and the design of pressure bellows, compensators, turbine disks, or flange connections under thermal and pressure cycles illustrates the great potential of the numerical techniques developed for this purpose using mostly min-max approaches. Emphasis was laid on approaches that take into account the fact that loading histories are often not precisely known Therefore, the center of interest lies in other than step by step calculation methods.. The volume is composed of four chapters devoted to material mode
