β¦ Synopsis
one step forward gradient time integration scheme is developed which leads to a tangent stiffness type method for rate dependent solids. Within the context of small strain theory numerical examples are presented showing application of the method to material behaviors ranging from elasticnonlinearly viscous to nearly rate independent. The adaptability of this rate dependent tangent modulus method to complex constitutive relations and to finite deformation analyses is also illustrated.

Presented is an efficient numerical method for computing thermal rate constants for quantum systems with few, localized degrees of freedom. The starting point is the work of Miller, Schwartz and Tromp in which the rate constant is expressed in terms of an equilibrium flux-flux correlation function.
