In this paper, the authors study the thermodynamics of nonlinear materials with internal state variables whose temporal evolution is governed by ordinary differential equations, and employ a method developed by Coleman and Noll to find the general restrictions which the Clausius-Duhem inequality places on response functions.
Abstract
This is a study of the thermodynamics of nonlinear materials with internal state variables whose temporal evolution is governed by ordinary differential equations. After employing a method developed by Coleman and Noll to find the general restrictions which the Clausius—Duhem inequality places on response functions, we analyze various types of dynamical stability that can be exhibited by solutions of the internal evolution equations. We also discuss integral dissipation inequalities, conditions under which temperatures can be associated with internal states, and the forms taken by response functions when the material is a fluid.

On the mechanical behaviour under cyclic loading of ceramic matrix composites

TL;DR: In this paper, a constitutive law is presented to model the mechanical behavior of ceramic matrix composites, allowing matrix-cracking, interfacial debonding, sliding and wear to be accounted for in the framework of continuum mechanics.

Friction coefficient evaluation using physically based viscoplasticity model at the contact region during high velocity sliding

TL;DR: In this article, the formulation of Molinari et al.'s work (J Tribology Trans ASME 35-41, 1999) is revisited in order to investigate the coefficient of dry friction for steel on steel in the high velocity range using physically based viscoplastic constitutive relations.

Thermodynamics of Solids

TL;DR: In this paper, an implicit representation of a functional relation is obtained from the formulation of a system of ordinary differential equations for a set of additional internal variables, specifying the rate of change of internal variables depending on their present values and the strain (or stress) input.

The Thermodynamics of Elastic Materials with Heat Conduction and Viscosity

TL;DR: The basic physical concepts of classical continuum mechanics are body, configuration of a body, and force system acting on a body as mentioned in this paper, which can be expressed as follows: a body is regarded as a smooth manifold whose elements are the material points; a configuration is defined as a mapping of the body into a three-dimensional Euclidean space, and a force system is defined to be a vector-valued function defined for pairs of bodies.
