Influence of the combination of ambient and glacial stresses on the response of a viscoelastic Earth

The evolution of ice loads during the last Ice Age causes an ongoing Earth response with deformations and stress fields. The viscosity of the mantle depends on stresses, therefore the model stresses should be combined with ambient stresses such as due to mantle convection. This combination has been successfully simulated in the FEM software...

Thermo-mechanical loading response of hardened and tempered iron-carbon based alloys

The mechanisms causing long term changes of materials at mild operating conditions, i.e. relatively low temperatures and loads, has not received as much attention as that for high temperature operating conditions because small strains are involved. Nevertheless the thermo-mechanical loading response of materials used for high precision...
