The problem of finite deflections of a nonlinearly elastic bar is investigated as an extension of the classical theory of the elastica to include material nonlinearities. A moment-curvature relation in the form of a hyperbolic tangent law is introduced to simulate that of a class of elastoplastic materials. The problem of finite deflections of a clamped-end bar subjected to an axial force is given special attention, and numerical solutions to the resulting system of nonlinear differential equations are obtained. Tables of results for various values of the parameters defining the material are provided and solutions are compared with those of the classical theory of the elastica.

The research involved in this paper falls into the area of analytical vibrations applied to planar mechanical linkages. Specifically, a study of the vibrations, associated with an elastic connecting-bar for a high-speed slider-crank mechanism, is made. To simplify the mathematical analysis, the vibrations of an externally viscously damped uniform elastic connecting bar is taken to be hinged at each end (i.e., the moment and displacement are assumed to vanish at each end). The equations governing the vibrations of the elastic bar are derived, a small parameter is found, and the solution is developed as an asymptotic expansion in terms of this small parameter with the aid of the Krylov-Bogoliubov method of averaging. The elastic stability is studied and the steady-state solutions for both the longitudinal and transverse vibrations are found.

In this study we investigate the durability of a bar subjected to tension in the presence of corrosion. Various possible relationships are considered between the corrosion velocity and stress. We concentrate on linear, quadratic, purely cubic, and general cubic relationships. Closed-form expressions are obtained for the structure’s durability, which is identified with time to failure, with failure defined as the stress reaching the yield level. Among other things, we evaluate the validity of the assumption that the average diameter of the bar remains constant, as suggested by Dolinskii (1967, “Analysis of Loaded Tubes Subjected to Corrosion,” Khimicheskoe I Neftianoe Mashinostroenie (Chemical and Oil Machinery), 2, pp. 9–10, (in Russian)). We show that in certain circumstances this assumption may lead to an unacceptably large error.
