Showing papers on "Mixture theory published in 1975"



Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, a previously developed binary mixture theory for wave guide-type propagation in laminated composites with periodic microstructure is modified to account for debonding, and an interface model of the Coulomb frictional type is postulated and the resulting theory is compared with experimental impact data.

TL;DR: In this paper, a nonlinear theory of a mixture of interacting directed curves is developed for a class of viscoelastic materials with fading memory, and a model of the ligamentous spine as a composite or mixture of directed curves was proposed.
Abstract: A general nonlinear theory of a mixture of interacting directed curves is developed. Constitutive equations are presented for a class of viscoelastic materials with fading memory. A model of the ligamentous spine as a composite or mixture of directed curves is proposed. Suitable constraints are imposed which yield a simple nonlinear theory governing the response of the spine regarded as a composite rod which can undergo bending, twisting, axial extension and cross-sectional shear deformation.

TL;DR: The results seem to favour the Leonard-Henderson-Barker and van der Waals one-fluid mixture theory as discussed by the authors, which is a mixture theory based on pure fluid perturbation.
Abstract: Recently Lee and Levesque have extended the Weeks-Chandler-Andersen pure fluid perturbation theory to mixtures and have compared the results to the Leonard-Henderson-Barker mixture theory. The results seem to favour the Leonard-Henderson-Barker theory. This and other previous comparisons of mixture theories have been mostly confined to the study of ‘zero pressure’ thermodynamic properties. In this paper we compare the Lee-Levesque, Leonard-Henderson-Barker and the van der Waals one-fluid theories to high pressure equation of state data for helium-xenon mixtures. This system is modelled by a binary mixture of Lennard-Jones fluids and the hard sphere reference system is characterized by the Grundke-Henderson hard sphere mixture radial distribution function. The Lee-Levesque theory compares favourably with experimental equation of state data up to pressures of 2000 atmospheres. The Leonard-Henderson-Barker and van der Waals one theories are satisfactory. Although the van der Waals one theory yields the poore...

TL;DR: In this article, a superimposed mixture theory is constructed for a biaxially fiber-reinforced medium composed of fiber reinforced materials in alternating layers in which the angle of reinforcement alternates from layer to layer.
