Mode III effects on interface delamination

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of combined modes I, II and III at the crack-tip is investigated for crack growth along an interface between dissimilar materials, and the analysis is carried out for conditions of small-scale yielding, with the fracture process represented by a cohesive zone model.
Journal ArticleDOI

Localization in spherical shell buckling

TL;DR: In this article, the authors address the localization of the deformation due to buckling that occurs immediately following the onset of bifurcation in the axisymmetric buckling of a perfect spherical elastic shell subject to external pressure.
Journal ArticleDOI

On optimal arches

TL;DR: Optimal inextensional buckling of uniformly loaded simply supported arches with large opening angle was shown in this paper, where the arches were assumed to be uniformly loaded and uniformly supported.
Journal ArticleDOI

Theory of Elasticity

TL;DR: In this paper, the physical foundations of the theory of elasticity are given, including nonlinearities, including geometric and physical nonlinearity, and an excursion into the field of geometric non-linearities is done in order to prepare the reader for further advances into the most recent developments in the theory.
Journal ArticleDOI

Technical Brief: Knockdown Factor for the Buckling of Spherical Shells Containing Large-Amplitude Geometric Defects

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of precisely defined geometric imperfections on the buckling load of spherical shells under external pressure loading, using finite element analysis that was previously validated through precision experiments, was explored.
