NUMERICAL ALGORITHMS FOR SOLVING THE ELASTO-PLASTIC PROBLEM WITH MIXED HARDENING
Journal Title: ROMANIAN JOURNAL OF TECHNICAL SCIENCES - APPLIED MECHANICS - Year 2013, Vol 58, Issue 3
Abstract
The paper deals with elasto-plastic models for mixed hardening material, described by rate-type constitutive equations. In the first part of the paper update algorithms for solving rate type elastic-plastic models with mixed hardening mixed for small deformations have been emphasized, based on the radial return mapping algorithms proposed by Simo and Hughes [28]. We exemplify the elastic prediction and plastic corrector steps of the algorithms as well as the calculus of the appropriate algorithmic tangent moduli. We emphasize the role played by the algorithmic tangent moduli in solving the quasi-static, initial and boundary value problem, based on the methodology proposed and developed in the paper by Cleja-Tigoiu and Stoicuta [8].

CLASS OF ANTHROPOMORPHIC MODULAR RECONFIGURABLE GRIPPERS WITH THREE OR FOUR FINGERS FOR ROBOT-DESIGN AND PROTOTYPE
In this paper, one class of anthropomorphic modular reconfigurable grippers for robots is described, including a prototype. First, the stages of synthesis, analysis design, and functional simulation are illustrated. The...
ON THE DYNAMIC BEHAVIOR OF ELASTIC FRAME STRUCTURES WITH BASE IMPOSED HARMONIC DISPLACEMENT
The dynamic response of an elastic shear frame structure to imposed lateral harmonic displacement of the base slab is analyzed within frequency ranges placed below and above natural frequencies. It is shown that between...
PREDICTION OF THE FORMING LIMIT CURVES USING GTN DAMAGE MODEL
In this paper, the forming limit curve of an AA6016-T4 sheet metal is constructed using Gurson-Tvergaard-Needleman (GTN), Marciniak-Kuczynski (M-K) and Modified Maximum Force Criterion (MMFC) models. The mechanical behav...
ON THE POST-EARTHQUAKE DAMAGE DETECTION OF STRUCTURES
The paper introduces an alternative method for evaluation the postearthquake damage in the multidegree of freedom structures with viscous and hysteretic behavior. Assuming damage as a scalar variable is very simplistic....
INFLUENCE OF LANTHANUM DOPING ON THE STRUCTURAL, MORPHOLOGICAL AND THERMAL CHARACTERISTICS OF NICKEL FERRITE
Lanthanum doped nickel ferrite – NiFe1-δLaδO4 has been synthesised by solid state reaction using nickel and iron oxides (NiO and Fe2O3) and lanthanum hydroxide (La(OH)3). The samples have been investigated by X-ray diffr...
