A simple theoretical method, which is based on ductile damage mechanics and which retains strain rate effects, is presented for predicting the failure of beams made from a perfectly plastic material and subjected to impact loads. For this class of materials, the strains can be estimated by defining

The measurement of moment mobility, although important for many applications, is often not performed due to difficulties inherent in current measurement techniques. Overcoming many of these problems, two two-exciter methods are described which allow for the measurement of moment mobility. Expression
A theoretical analysis is presented which examines the petalling failure of thin circular plates struck transversely by a mass, having a conical head and a spherical nose, at the centre of the plates. A failure criterion of plastic work density is employed for predicting the onset of petalling failu
The existence of a transverse strength isotropy concerning the strength in rock media due to the presence of a family of planes of weakness superimposed within an isotropic rock mass is considered. Six dierent mechanisms of failure are possible under a foundation depending on the boundary conditions
