Differences in tension and compression in the nonlinearly elastic bending of beams

Michel Destrade, Jerry G. Murphy, Badar Rashid

The classical flexure problem of non-linear incompressible elasticity is revisited for elastic materials whose mechanical response is different in tension and compression---the so-…

Simple shear is not so simple

Michel Destrade, Jerry G. Murphy, Giuseppe Saccomandi

For homogeneous, isotropic, nonlinearly elastic materials, the form of the homogeneous deformation consistent with the application of a Cauchy shear stress is derived here for both…

Onset of Non-Linearity in the Elastic Bending of Blocks

Michel Destrade, Michael D. Gilchrist, Jerry G. Murphy

The classical flexure problem of non-linear incompressible elasticity is revisited assuming that the bending angle suffered by the block is specified instead of the usual applied m…

Bimodular rubber buckles early in bending

Michel Destrade, Michael D. Gilchrist, Julie A. Motherway +1

A block of rubber eventually buckles under severe flexure, and several axial wrinkles appear on the inner curved face of the bent block. Experimental measurements reveal that the b…

Increasing the Number of Underrepresented Minorities in Astronomy: Executive Summary

Dara Norman, CSMA, NSHP +30

Promoting racial and ethnic diversity is critically important to the future success and growth of the field of astronomy. The raw ability, drive and interest required to excel in t…
