The model of Johnson and Cook, which includes a viscoplastic flow rule and a damage criterion, is widely used to describe the mechanical behaviour of metallic materials subjected to severe loading conditions, such as those ...

In the present work, a framework for the development of constitutive models for metallic materials in a thermomechanical context is proposed. Such a framework provides some guidelines to deal with processes involving large ...

X-ray diffraction techniques are widely used to estimate stresses within polycrystalline materials. The application of these techniques requires the knowledge of the X-ray elastic constants relating the lattice strains to ...

This work is exhibiting a new laboratory investigation method to obtain fibre 3D angle measurement of a wood piece after successive planing of the whole specimen. By combining in-plane fibre measurements through laser ...
