  1. 1. Modeling of plasticity at large strains

    Author : Mathias Wallin; Hållfasthetslära; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : This thesis is concerned with various aspects of the constitutive modeling of plasticity. Both theoretical issues and issues related to the numerical implementation of the constitutive models are addressed. READ MORE

  2. 2. Evolution of Anisotropy in Continua Exposed to Large Strains

    Author : Magnus Harrysson; Hållfasthetslära; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with the modeling of anisotropic materials at finite deformations. The major emphasis is the development of constitutive models able to account for the evolving directionally dependent properties of these materials. In addition, the numerical implementation of the models developed is addressed. READ MORE

  3. 3. Modeling of Inelastic Response of Metals with Emphasis on Cyclic Viscoplasticity

    Author : Magnus Ekh; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; large strains; integration; anisotropy; plasticity; creep; viscoplasticity; kinematic hardening; metals; damage; calibration;

    Abstract : This thesis is concerned with the continuum modeling of the macroscopic behavior of engineering metals, in particular as part of life prediction strategies. Focus is primarily placed on the formulation and numerics of models for cyclic rate-dependent response. READ MORE

  4. 4. Manufacturihng of heavy rings and large copper canisters by plastic deformation

    Author : Hamzah Ssemakula; KTH; []
    Keywords : pores; grain size; low forginnig load; effective strain;

    Abstract : Plastic deformation processes transform material fromas-received state to products meeting certain requirements inproperties, microstructure and shape. To achieve thistransformation, the relationship between material response andprocess conditions should be understood. READ MORE

  5. 5. Elastic-Plastic Fracture Mechanics and RCF in Rails

    Author : Johan Tillberg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; RCF; elastic-plastic fracture mechanics; Material-forces; Multiple crack interaction;

    Abstract : This thesis concerns issues regarding the modeling and numerical simulation of singularcracks and their propagation in the context of Rolling Contact Fatigue (RCF) in rails.Typically, such cracks are associated with squats and head-checks in the rail head. READ MORE
