Stress effects in an incompressible hyperelastic cylindrical specimen are specified for the torsion test and combined elongation–torsion tests. The twisting couple and [...]

The most common constitutive relation in acoustoelasticity is the second-order constitutive relation expressed in terms of the Green-Lagrange strain tensor. The wave velo [...]

The central difference method is widely used for the numerical solution of the transient elastodynamics problems by the finite element method. The effectiveness of this [...]

Stress and strain distribution underneath various types of indentors – spherical, conical, and Berkovich – can be provided by the finite element method. In the presen [...]

Accuracy and stability of two-dimensional bilinear four-node and serendipity eight-node finite elements was tested in a wave propagation simulation. The influence of di [...]

Distortion of yield surface was observed in numerous experiments with various types of metals. The distorted surface shows high curvature in the direction of load and fl [...]

Expressions for velocities of elastic waves in pre-stressed solids are derived using the third order strain energy function and the Hencky’s logarithmic strain tensor a [...]
