We consider the test-problem of simple shearing of a thermoviscoplastic solid subject to steady or time-dependent boundary velocities or shear forces. Previously derived stability and nonlocalization criteria are presented. The influence of boundary conditions on the time-asymptotic “solution,” the role of nonuniformities and the localization of plastic deformation are discussed. Finally, a perturbation analysis of homogeneous solution under steady boundary velocities or stresses of a material with a gradient-dependent flow stress is presented and “shear-banding” criteria are derived.

AbstractThe objective of this paper is to investigate the effects of scale of an auxetic cellular material sample on the evaluation of elastic properties. Size and boundary effects are studied in detail. This is achieved by conducting computer simulations of the auxetic structure under the typical loading exerted by the compression and simple shearing test performed by means of ABAQUS FEA. The material microstructure is discretized by the plane network of Timoshenko beam elements. The results of the studies give insight to the scale effects. Structures with designed properties can be potentially used for engineering applications.

The growth of an isolated void is analysed for a void contained in a block of material undergoing simple shearing combined with superimposed hydrostatic tension. The evolution of the size, shape and orientation of two- and three-dimensional voids in an incompressible, linearly viscous solid is first discussed. The main problem addressed is the behaviour of a two-dimensional cylindrical void in an incompressible, nonlinearly viscous solid for which the strain rate varies as the stress to a power. The growth rate of the void and its shape evolution are strong functions of the degree of material nonlinearity. Relatively simple approximate formulas are obtained for the dilatation rate of a circular void as well as for the void potential. The constitutive relation of a block of material containing a dilute distribution of circular cylindrical voids is obtained directly using the isolated void potential. The paper concludes with a summary of available results for the dilatation rates of voids and cracks under combinations of shear and hydrostatic tension.
