REFINED BEAM THEORIES BASED ON A UNIFIED FORMULATION

Erasmo Carrera, Gaetano Giunta · 1 Mar 2010

This paper proposes several axiomatic refined theories for the linear static analysis of beams made of isotropic materials. A hierarchical scheme is obtained by extending plates and shells Carrera's Unified Formulation (CUF) to beam structures. An N-order approximation via Mac Laurin's polynomials is assumed on the cross-section for the displacement unknown variables. N is a…

NONLINEAR MECHANICS OF SINGLE-ATOMIC-LAYER GRAPHENE SHEETS

Qiang Lü, Rui Huang · 1 Sep 2009

The unique lattice structure and properties of graphene have drawn tremendous interests recently. By combining continuum and atomistic approaches, this paper investigates the mechanical properties of single-atomic-layer graphene sheets. A theoretical framework of nonlinear continuum mechanics is developed for graphene under both in-plane and bending deformation. Atomistic simulations are carried out to deduce the effective…

Advances in Mechanics of Soft Materials: A Review of Large Deformation Behavior of Hydrogels

Zishun Liu, William Toh, Teng Yong Ng · 1 Oct 2015

Hydrogels possess magnificent properties which may be harnessed for novel applications. However, this is not achievable if the mechanical behaviors of hydrogels are not well understood. This paper aims to provide the reader with a bird's eye view of the mechanics of hydrogels, in particular the theories associated with deformation of hydrogels, the phenomena that…

Recent Advances of the Constitutive Models of Smart Materials — Hydrogels and Shape Memory Polymers

Rong Huang, Shoujing Zheng, Zishun Liu et al. · 20 Feb 2020

Hydrogels and shape memory polymers (SMPs) possess excellent and interesting properties that may be harnessed for future applications. However, this is not achievable if their mechanical behaviors are not well understood. This paper aims to discuss recent advances of the constitutive models of hydrogels and SMPs, in particular the theories associated with their deformations. On…

SIMULATING THE FLUID DYNAMICS OF NATURAL AND PROSTHETIC HEART VALVES USING THE IMMERSED BOUNDARY METHOD

Boyce E. Griffith, Xiaoyu Luo, David M. McQueen et al. · 1 Mar 2009

The immersed boundary method is both a general mathematical framework and a particular numerical approach to problems of fluid-structure interaction. In the present work, we describe the application of the immersed boundary method to the simulation of the fluid dynamics of heart valves, including a model of a natural aortic valve and a model of…

International Journal of Applied Mechanics template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the International Journal of Applied Mechanics format?
