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.

Algorithms for static and dynamic multiplicative plasticity that preserve the classical return mapping schemes of the infinitesimal theory

TL;DR: In this paper, a formulation and algorithmic treatment of static and dynamic plasticity at finite strains based on the multiplicative decomposition is presented which inherits all the features of the classical models of infinitesimal plasticity.

Associated coupled thermoplasticity at finite strains: formulation, numerical analysis and implementation

TL;DR: In this paper, a complete formulation of a model of coupled associative thermoplasticity at finite strains is presented, addressing in detail the numerical analysis aspects involved in its finite element implementation, and assessing the performance of the proposed mechanical and finite element models in a comprehensive set of numerical simulations.

A theory of finite viscoelasticity and numerical aspects

TL;DR: In this article, a nonlinear evolution law for finite deformation viscoelasticity was proposed, which is not restricted to states close to the thermodynamic equilibrium, and upon appropriate linearization, it can recover several established models of finite linear viscoels and linear velocities.

A constitutive theory for the inelastic behavior of concrete

TL;DR: In this paper, a general theory for the inelasticity of concrete is proposed, the main constituents being a new, rate independent model of distributed damage for mortar and the application of mixture theories to account for the composite nature of concrete.

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.
