Viscous damping approximation of laminated anisotropic composite plates using the finite element method

TL;DR: In this article, a viscous damping approximation of a laminated plate is employed to define an average modal loss factor associated with each mode of vibration of a plate, which is then employed with a finite element analysis and a multidimensional definition of critical damping to form a Rayleigh damping matrix [C ] as a linear combination of the stiffness and mass matrices.

Large Deformation Isotropic Elasticity—On the Correlation of Theory and Experiment for Incompressible Rubberlike Solids

TL;DR: In this article, the correlation of theory and experiment for incompressible isotropic elastic solids under finite strain was extended to incorporate the effects of compressibility (under isothermal conditions) with the result that experimental data on the compressibility of rubberlike materials are adequately accounted for.

A refined nonlinear theory of plates with transverse shear deformation

TL;DR: In this paper, a higher-order shear deformation theory of plates accounting for the von Karman strain was presented, which contains the same dependent unknowns as in the Hencky-Mindlin type first-order deformation theories and accounts for parabolic distribution of the transverse shear strains through the thickness of the plate.

Nonlinear finite element analysis of shells: Part I. three-dimensional shells

TL;DR: In this article, a nonlinear finite element formulation is presented for the three-dimensional quasistatic analysis of shells which accounts for large strain and rotation effects, and accommodates a fairly general class of nonlinear, finite-deformation constitutive equations.
