Bouc-Wen-type models with stiffness degradation: thermodynamic analysis and applications
Silvano Erlicher, Oreste S. Bursi
In this paper, a thermodynamic analysis of Bouc-Wen models endowed with both strength and stiffness degradation is provided. It is based on the relationship between the flow rules…
Pseudo-potentials and loading surfaces for an endochronic plasticity theory with isotropic damage
Silvano Erlicher, Nelly Point
The endochronic theory, developed in the early 70s, allows the plastic behavior of materials to be represented by introducing the notion of intrinsic time. With different viewpoint…
On the derivation of structural models with general thermomechanical prestress
Silvano Erlicher, F. Bourquin
The vibrating behaviour of thin structures is affected by prestress states. Hence, the effects of thermal prestress are important research subjects in view of ambient vibration mon…
Application of the orthogonality principle to the endochronic and Mroz models of plasticity
Nelly Point, Silvano Erlicher
A new description of the endochronic and the Mroz model is discussed. It is based on the definition of a suitable pseudo-potential and the use of the generalized normality assumpti…
Endochronic theory, non-linear kinematic hardening rule and generalized plasticity: a new interpretation based on generalized normality assumption
Silvano Erlicher, Nelly Point
A simple way to define the flow rules of plasticity models is the assumption of generalized normality associated with a suitable pseudo-potential function. This approach, however,…
