This paper contains analysis of the bending beyond the elastic limit of an ideally elastic-plastic beam which contains a through-thickness distribution of high initial stresses. This is relevant to the analysis of service behaviour of... more
The experiment was carried out to investigate the tip deflections and twists, and stresses of a tube subject to loads to simulate three specific loading cases. The reliability of the analytical analysis adopted was assessed and possible... more
This work aims at understanding the effect of particle–matrix interfacial debonding on the tensile response of syntactic foams. The problem of a single hollow inclusion with spherical-cap cracks embedded in a dissimilar matrix material is... more
The paper considers rotations at different scales in granular materials: the rotations of individual particles, the rolling and rigid-rotation of particle pairs, the rotational interactions of a particle within its cluster of neighbors,... more
The aim of this paper is to analyze delaminated multilayered plates under classical loads using an alternative model to the existing three-dimensional finite element methods (3D-FEM). The proposed alternative model, named LS1, is a... more
This paper is the second part of the research work dedicated to evaluation of mechanical properties of polymer composites reinforced by knitted fabric. Three different approaches were applied for the task. Two of them: a) FEM analysis... more
