Journal ArticleDOI

Inelastic behavior of materials. Part II. Energetics associated with discontinuous deformation twinning

TL;DR: In this article, a thermomechanical framework for the study of deformation twinning of polycrystals under the assumption that the process is isothermal is proposed, and a criterion based on energetics is proposed for the initiation and propagation of twinning.
Journal ArticleDOI

Towards an understanding of the mechanics underlying aortic dissection

TL;DR: Imaging of the aorta may provide information regarding aortic anisotropy and geometry, and in combination with a hemodynamic risk assessment, has the potential to be able to prospectively identify patients at high risk for future aortssection thereby facilitating prophylactic intervention.
Journal ArticleDOI

Solutions of some simple boundary value problems within the context of a new class of elastic materials

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied boundary value problems for a new class of elastic materials, where deformations are expressed as non-linear functions of the stresses and non-unique solutions are possible.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anti-plane stress state of a plate with a V-notch for a new class of elastic solids

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigate the efficacy and usefulness of a class of recently proposed models that could be reasonable candidates for describing the response of brittle elastic materials in the neighborhood of the tips of cracks and notches.
Journal ArticleDOI

Flow of electro-rheological materials

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a mathematical model for field dependent materials which is consistent with the phenomena which have been observed, such as the flow between parallel plates, Couette flow, and flow in an eccentric rotating disc device.
