Lallit Anand,Morton E. Gurtin +1 more
TLDR
In this paper, a continuum theory for the elastic-viscoplastic deformation of amorphous solids such as polymeric and metallic glasses is proposed. But the authors do not consider the elasticity of polymeric solids and instead focus on the dependence of the Helmholtz free energy on the deformation in a thermodynamically consistent manner.About:

Large-scale failure modes of dielectric elastomer actuators
TL;DR: In this article, an idealized DEA is modeled and its failure is predicted as a function of film pre-stretch used during actuator fabrication, actuation voltage, and stretch rate.

A three-dimensional constitutive model for the large stretch behavior of rubber elastic materials
Ellen M. Arruda,Mary C. Boyce +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, an eight-chain representation of the underlying macromolecular network structure of the rubber and the non-Gaussian behavior of the individual chains in the proposed network is proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Elastic-Plastic Deformation at Finite Strains
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors generalize a previous theory to permit arbitrary deformation histories by considering two coupled thermodynamic systems: one comprising thermo- elasticity at finite strain and the other the irreversible process of dissipation and absorption of plastic work.

Bulk Glass-Forming Metallic Alloys: Science and Technology
TL;DR: The MRS Medal was presented by William L. Johnson at the 1998 MRS Fall Meeting on December 2, 1998 as discussed by the authors, where Johnson received the honor for his development of bulk metallic glass-forming alloys, and the fundamental understanding of the thermodynamics and kinetics that control glass formation and crystallization of glassforming liquids.
