Deformation mechanisms of the slopes are commonly schematized in four different stages: pre-failure, failure, post-failure and eventual reactivation. Traditional numerical methods, such as the finite element method and the finite difference method, are commonly employed to analyse the slope response in the pre-failure and failure stages under the assumption of small deformations. On the other hand, these methods are generally unsuitable for simulating the post-failure behaviour due to the occurrence of large deformations that often characterize this stage. The material point method (MPM) is one of the available numerical techniques capable of overcoming this limitation. In this paper, MPM is employed to analyse the post-failure stage of a landslide that occurred at Cook Lake (WY, USA) in 1997, after a long rainy period. Accuracy of the method is assessed by comparing the final geometry of the displaced material detected just after the event, to that provided by the numerical simulation. A satisfactory agreement is obtained between prediction and observation when an increase in the groundwater level due to rainfall is accounted for in the analysis.

Real solids are not incompressible, although many viscoelastic materials which undergo large deformations show only small changes in volume under ordinary loading conditions. This paper is concerned with a pressurized isotropic viscoelastic hollow cylinder bonded to an elastic casing in which, during a finite deformation, the dilatational change in any element of the cylinder is a small quantity. The analysis is based in part upon the theory of small deformations superposed on finite deformations. Numerical calculations are evaluated by using finite-difference techniques and assuming particular forms of kernel functions in the stress-strain relation. The results for compressible and incompressible materials are compared.

Small Deformations

This report analyzes the large deformations of a cylindrical, inflated, single-wall tent due to wind pressure and is based on the membrane theory for large deflections but small strains. The tent cross section is a sector of a circle in the undeformed position, and the wind is blowing on it in the broadside direction. The tent motion is taken as plane, and it is assumed that the wind pressure distribution is known in the deformed state. The problem is solved by numerical analysis and results are presented for the stress, deformed shape, aerodynamic resultants, and anchor forces. The problem is of theoretical interest because the linear membrane theory does not have a unique solution for it, and also because it illustrates that the method of small deformations superposed on large is of little help when the large deformation is of inextensional type.

Eshelby Problem

Averaging models are proposed for viscoplastic and elastic-viscoplastic heterogeneous materials. The case of rigid viscoplastic materials is first discussed. Large deformations are considered. A first class of models is based on different linearizations of the nonlinear local response. A second class of models is obtained from approximate solutions of the nonlinear Eshelby problem. In this problem, an ellipsoid with uniform nonlinear properties is embedded in an infinite homogeneous matrix. An approximate solution is obtained by approaching the matrix behavior with an affine response. Using this solution of the nonlinear Eshelby problem, the average strain rate is calculated in each phase of the composite material, each phase being represented by an ellipsoid embedded in an infinite reference medium. By adequate choices of the reference medium, different averaging models are obtained (self-consistent scheme, nonlinear Mori Tanaka model…). Finally, elasticity is included in the modelling, but with a restriction to small deformations.

Based on the progress and advances of additive manufacturing technologies, design and production of complex structures became cheaper and therefore rather possible in the recent past. A promising example of such complex structure is a so-called pantographic structure, which can be described as a metamaterial consisting of repeated substructure. In this substructure, two planes, which consist of two arrays of beams being orthogonally aligned to each other, are interconnected by cylinders/pivots. Different inner geometries were taken into account and additively manufactured by means of fused deposition modeling technique using polyethylene terephthalate glycol (PETG) as filament material. To further understand the effect of different manufacturing parameters on the mechanical deformation behavior, three types of specimens have been investigated by means of displacement-controlled extension tests. Different slicing approaches were implemented to eliminate process-related problems. Small and large deformations are investigated separately. Furthermore, 2D digital image correlation was used to calculate strains on the outer surface of the metamaterial. Two finite-element simulations based on linear elastic isotropic model and linear elastic transverse isotropic model have been carried out for small deformations. Standardized extension tests have been performed on 3D-printed PETG according to ISO 527-2. Results obtained from finite-element method have been validated by experimental results of small deformations. These results are in good agreement with linear elastic transverse isotropic model (up to about [Formula: see text] of axial elongation), though the response of large deformations indicates a nonlinear inelastic material behavior. Nevertheless, all samples are able to withstand outer loading conditions after the first rupture, resulting in resilience against ultimate failure.
