Theory of perfect plasticity of composite materials, taking account of volume compressibility

Journal of Applied Mechanics and Technical Physics Aims and scope

Abstract

The practical importance and timeliness of the study of the mechanical macroscopic behavior of composite microinhomogeneous media are determined by its ability to give criteria for estimating the limiting load of various structural elements, the flow of multiphase dispersed systems, the deformation of materials made by powder metallurgy methods, etc. The theoretical prediction of the properties of composites is generally most effectively realized when their structural representations are based on the theory of random fields. Application of the “strong isotropy” hypothesis [1] for the statistical averaging of certain relations of a perfectly plastic body with microstructure permits the determination of its macroscopic yield surface.
