In this paper multigrid technique is adapted for solving standing one-dimensional wave equation with radiation boundary conditions. Solver, consisting of wave cycle and ray cycle, uses Gauss-Seidel and Kaczmarz relaxation sweeps and is aimed to work effici ...
Traction tests were performed on the bovine anterior cruciate ligament-bone complex at seven strain rates (0.1, 1, 5, 10, 20, 30, 40%/s). Corresponding stress-strain curves showed that, for a given strain level, the stress increased with the augmentation o ...
Constant strain-rate and creep tests have been performed on poly-quasicrystalline specimens of the icosahedral Al-Cu-Fe system. Three temperatures (870, 960 and 1000 K) have been investigated by creep for samples predeformed at constant strain-rate before ...
Crack patterns of 53 nm and 103 nm thick silicon oxide coatings on poly(ethylene terephthalate) films are analyzed under equibiaxial stress loading, by means of a bulging cell mounted under an optical microscope with stepwise pressurization of film specime ...
By means of a Gleeble machine, the flow stress at steady-state creep in an AA3103 aluminium alloy has been measured for temperatures and strain rates relevant for thermally induced deformations in DC casting. The strain rate has been determined by measurin ...
In the more recent applications of technical polymers, they are frequently submitted to high strain rates. Being viscoelastic by nature, their mechanical properties are rate dependent. It is therefore important to investigate their properties over a wide r ...
Traction tests on soft tissues show that the shape of the stress strain curves depends on the strain rate at which the tests are performed. Many of the constitutive models that have been proposed fail to properly consider the effect of the strain rate when ...
