Stress update scheme in platicity

Submitted by tuanpham on

Hi everybody,

I am studying the plastic deformation of sheet metal. Recently, I study about stress update scheme in finite element analysis using return mapping method. For this problem, we can calculate the increment of stress components, Δσ for a given value of strain components Δε using elastic predictor - plastic correct scheme. Since Δε = Δεe +Δεp, first, we assume Δεp=0 and check the yield criterion. Then, we find Δεp to satisfy the yield criterion as well as the consistent condition.

However, I have a question as the follows

Interface-Governed Deformation of Nanobubbles and Nanotents Formed by Two-Dimensional Materials

Submitted by Zhaohe Dai on

In this paper, we experimentally characterize a simple and unified power law for the profiles of a variety of nanobubbles and nanotents formed by 2D materials such as graphene and MoS2 layers. https://journals.aps.org/prl/abstract/10.1103/PhysRevLett.121.266101

ABSTRACT

Optimal-Feedback Accelerated Picard Iteration Method and a Fish-Scale Growing Method for Wide-Ranging and Multi-Revolution Perturbed Lambert's Problems

Submitted by Xuechuan Wang on

Wide-ranging and multiple-revolution perturbed Lambert’s problems are building blocks for practical missions such as development of cislunar space, interplanetary navigation, orbital rendezvous, etc. However, it is of a great challenge to solve these problems both accurately and efficiently, considering the long transfer time and the complexity of high-fidelity modeling of space environment. For that, a methodology combining Optimal-Feedback Accelerated Picard Iteration methods and Fish-Scale Growing Method is demonstrated.
