Constitutive equations are derived for the time-dependent behavior of particle-reinforced elastomers at isothermal loading with finite strains. A rubbery polymer is modelled as a network of macromolecules bridged by junctions which can slip…
Actionable recourse studies whether individuals can modify feasible features to overturn unfavorable outcomes produced by AI-assisted decision-support systems. However, many such systems operate in competitive settings, such as admission or…
Constitutive relations close the balance laws of continuum mechanics and serves as the surrogate for a material in the design and engineering process. The problem of obtaining the constitutive relations is an indirect inverse problem where…
We make a rigorous computation of the relative entropy between the vacuum state and a coherent state for a free scalar in the framework of AQFT. We study the case of the Rindler Wedge. Previous calculations including path integral methods…
The performance of a speaker recognition system decreases when the speaker is under stress or emotion. In this paper we explore and identify a mechanism that enables use of inherent stress-in-speech or speaking style information present in…
Stress tensors are derived for the multiparticle collision dynamics algorithm, a particle-based mesoscale simulation method for fluctuating fluids, resembling those of atomistic or molecular systems. Systems with periodic boundary…
We present the formulation for finding the distribution of eigenstrains, i.e. the sources of residual stress, from a set of measurements of residual elastic strain (e.g. by diffraction), or residual stress, or stress redistribution, or…
Yield stress fluids display complex dynamics, in particular when driven into the transient regime between the solid and the flowing state. Inspired by creep experiments on dense amorphous materials, we implement mesocale elasto-plastic…
Recent years have witnessed the development of so-called relaxation tribometers, the free oscillation of which is altered by the presence of frictional stresses within the contact. So far, analysis of such oscillations has been restricted…
Thixotropy is a phenomenon related to time dependent change in viscosity in presence or absence of flow. The yield stress, on the other hand, represents the minimum value of stress above which steady flow can be sustained. In addition, the…
Anomalous relaxation is one of the hallmarks of disordered systems. Following perturbation by an external source, many glassy, jammed and amorphous systems relax as a stretched or compressed exponential as a function of time. However,…
Many recent papers have questioned Irving and Kirkwood's atomistic expression for stress. In Irving and Kirkwood's approach both interatomic forces and atomic velocities contribute to stress. It is the velocity-dependent part that has been…
A simple Rouse-type model, generalised to incorporate the effects of chemical crosslinks, is used to obtain a theoretical prediction for the critical behaviour of the normal-stress coefficients $\Psi_{1}$ and $\Psi_{2}$ at the gelation…
The oxidative stress response is characterized by various effects on a range of biologic molecules. When examined at the protein level, both expression levels and protein modifications are altered by oxidative stress. While these effects…
Anisotropy in the mechanical response of materials with microstructure is common and yet is difficult to assess and model. To construct accurate response models given only stress-strain data, we employ classical representation theory, novel…
For two neighbouring stiff inclusions, the stress, which is the gradient of a solution to the Lam\'{e} system of linear elasticity, may exhibit singular behavior as the distance between these two inclusions becomes arbitrarily small. In…
Recently it was shown that free recall consists of two stages: the first few recalls empty working memory and a second stage concludes the recall (Tarnow, 2015; for a review of the theoretical prediction see Murdock, 1974). Here I…
Athletic training is characterized by physiological systems responding to repeated exercise-induced stress, resulting in gradual alterations in the functional properties of these systems. The adaptive response leading to improved…
Physical experiments can characterize the elastic response of granular materials in terms of macroscopic state-variables, namely volume (packing) fraction and stress, while the microstructure is not accessible and thus neglected. Here, by…
The paper considers the general case of incompressible non-classical elasticity with small deformations and rotations. The thermodynamic stability is analysed for free energy density with three rotational degrees of freedom. Although the…
