    Notes: Abstract When materials such as Armco iron, titanium etc., are subject to impact it can be observed that two basic inelastic processes take place – slip and deformation twinning. Of these processes, inelasticity associated with the slip mechanism has received considerable attention. For example, Zerilli and Armstrong (1988) modeled the Taylor impact test for a variety of materials using traditional plasticity theories. They found that there was a significant discrepancy between the theoretical and experimental results for some materials. They attributed this to the fact that they had neglected deformation twinning in their models. Subsequent metallurgical studies have indicated that twinning had indeed taken place in these materials. In this study, we focus on the inelastic processes solely due to deformation twinning (i.e., neglecting slip). We model these processes using the approach of Rajagopal and Srinivasa (1995, 1997) and Srinivasa et al., (1997), the results of which are briefly summarized in section 2.1. In order to better understand the twinning process, we study the Taylor impact test for a 2-D slab under the assumption that only deformation twinning takes place and solve the governing dynamical equations by using the finite element method. The results show that the twinned zone is concentrated near the point of impact and indeed it contributes significantly to the overall permanent shape change due to the impact.

    Notes: Abstract Constitutive equations for electrorheological (ER) fluids have been based on experimental results for steady shearing flows and constant electric fields. The fluids have been modeled as being rigid until a yield stress is reached. Additional stress is then proportional to the shear rate. Recent experimental results indicate that ER materials have a regime of solid-like response when deformed from a rest state. They behave in a viscoelastic-like manner under sinusoidal shearing and exhibit time-dependent response under sudden changes in shear rate or electric field. In this work, a constitutive theory for ER materials is presented which accounts for these recent experimental observations. The stress is given by a functional of the deformation gradient history and the electric field vector. Using the methods of continuum mechanics, a general three-dimensional constitutive equation is obtained. A sample constitutive equation is introduced which is then used to determine the response of an ER material for different shear histories. The calculated shear response is shown to be qualitatively similar to that observed experimentally.

    Notes: Abstract In this paper, based on a similarity that exists between the constitutive relations for turbulent mean flow of a Newtonian fluid and that for the laminar flow of a non-Newtonian fluid, and making use of extended thermodynamics, we develop a generalized nonlinearK-ɛ model, whose approximate form includes the standardK-ɛ model and the nonlinearK-ɛ model of Speziale (1987) as special cases. Our nonlinearK-ɛ model, which is frame indifferent, can predict relaxation of the Reynolds stress, unlike most standardK-ɛ models. Also, our model is in keeping with that of Yakhotet al. (1992). Most interestingly, the linearized form of our model bears a striking resemblance to the model due to Yoshizawa and Nisizima (1993); however, it has been obtained from a totally different perspective.

    Notes: Abstract. The thermomechanical behavior of a shape memory wire is modeled based on a theory that takes cognizance of the fact that the body can possess multiple natural configurations [1]. The constitutive equations are developed by first constructing the form of the Helmholtz potential (based on different modes of energy storage), and dissipation mechanisms. The internal energy includes contributions from the strain energy, the latent energy, the interfacial energy and thermal energy. The entropy of the system includes the"entropy jump" associated with the phase transition.¶The role of the rate of mechanical dissipation as a mechanism for entropy generation and its importance in describing the hysteretic behavior is brought out by considering the difference between hysteretic and non-hysteretic (dissipation-less) behavior.¶Finally, simple linear or quadratic forms are assumed for the various constitutive functions and the full shape memory response is modeled. A procedure for the determination of the constants is also indicated and the constants for two systems (CuZnAl and NiTi) are calculated from published experimental data (see [2, 3]). The predictions of the theory show remarkable agreement with the experimental data. However, some of the results predicted by the theory are different from the experimental results reported in Huo and Muller [2] We discuss some of the issues regarding this discrepancy and show that there appears to be some internal inconsistency between the experimental data reported in Figure 6 and Figure 9 of Huo and Muller [2] (provided they represent the same sample).

    Notes: Summary Electro-active solids are solids that are either infused with electrorheological fluids or embedded with electrically conducting particles, the body as a whole however conducting negligible current. In this paper, we provide a mathematical framework, within the context of continuum mechanics, for the study of electro-active solids. The theory assumes that the body can be considered as a continuum, in the sense of homogenization, which is isotropic, incompressible, elastic and is capable of responding to an electric field. Appealing to standard techniques in continuum mechanics, we obtain a constitutive relation for the stresses in terms of the deformation and electric field. This is used in a study of triaxial extension, simple shear and anisotropy induced by the electric field.

    Notes: Summary We present two simple but elegant solutions for the flow of an Oldroyd-B fluid. First, we consider the flow past an infinite porous plate and find that the problem admits an asymptotically decaying solution in the case of suction at the plate, and that in the case of blowing it admits no such solution. Second, we study the longitudinal and torsional oscillations of an infinitely long rod of finite radius. The solutions are found in terms of Bessel functions.

    Notes: Summary Unlike most other fluid models, the Johnson-Segalman fluid allows for a non-monotonic relationship between the shear stress and rate of shear in a simple shear flow for certain values of the material parameter. This has been used for explaining a phenomenon such as “spurt”. Here, we study three simple flows of a Johnson-Segalman fluid with a view towards understanding its response characteristics. We find that boundary conditions can have a very interesting effect on the regularity of the solution; changing them continuously leads to solutions that change their regularity. First, we consider the flow through a circular pipe and find solutions that have discontinuous velocity profiles which have been used to explain the phenomenon of “spurt” (cf. [10], [11]). Second, we consider the flow past an infinite porous plate and show that it will not admit solutions which have discontinuous velocity gradients, the solutions being necessarity smooth. Lastly, we study Poiseuille flow in a concentric annulus with porous boundaries. While “spurt” could be explained alternatively by allowing for “stick-slip” at the wall, the Johnson-Segalman model seems particularly suited in describing the appearance of “shear-layers” (cf. [13]).
