This work presents a new strategy to model stress dependent relaxation process in large deformation. The strategy is relied on the fact that in some particular soft materials undergoing large deformation, e.g., elastomers, rubbers and soft tissues, the relaxation time depends strongly on stress levels. To simplify the viscoelastic model, we consider that the relaxation time is the function of previous elastic deviatoric stress state experienced by materials during loading. Using the General Maxwell Model (GMM), we simulate numerically conditions with the constant and the stress dependent relaxation time for uniaxial tension and compression loading. Hence, it can be shown that the proposed model herein not only can represent different relaxation time for different stress level but also maintain the capability of the GMM to model hysteresis phenomena.

Spectrum의 시간기복을 나타내는 시간 및 주파수의 함수 F(w,t,T) 및 W(w,t,T)를 정의하였고, 실례에 적용시켰다. Fourier변환을 f(t)와 Phasor ejwt와의 Correlation으로 정의하였고 그 변환시분이 시간마다의 성분의 합계이어서 t 시각에서의 Spectrum을 그 근거에서의 f(t)값에만 의함을 증명하였다. Two new time functions defining Time Dependent Fourier Transform F(w,t,T) and Time Dependent Spectrum Density W(w,t,T) are deduced. courier transform is defined as the correlation between the time function f(t) and phasor ejwt. Several theorems corncerning the new functions are proved in order to verify the instantaneous cause a effet of the function f(t) and the nuctuating spectrum.

Quantitative analysis of the activities of transport ATPases as well as alkaline phosphatase of the mouse uterus was carried out during the estrous cycle. Even though the proportional patterns of the enzyme activities were similar each another between the stages of estrous cycle, the absolute activities of the enzymes except $K^+$-dependent and $Na^+$, $K^+$-activated ATPases at the time of estrus were significantly (p<0.025) higher than that at any other time of the estrous cycle. That is, the activities of $K^+$-dependent and $Na^+$, $K^+$-activated ATPases were negligible during the period of time from diestrus to estrus while the little activities (0.04 $\\sim$ 0.05$\\mu$M/mg protein/hr in average, $6\\sim7$% of the total enzyme activity) of these enzymes appeared at the time of metaestrus. On the other hand, at the time of estrus, the activities of $Mg^++$-dependent phosphatase, transport ATPase and alkaline phosphatase were rapidly and tremendously increased to be 0.69 (35%), 0.42 (21%) and 1.58 (79%), respectively. The activity of alkaline phosphatase was in the range of 0.60 $\\sim$ 1.58 (79 $\\sim$ 90%) and predominant throughout the estrous cycle. The activity of $Mg^++$-dependent alkaline phosphatase was estimated as 12 $\\sim$ 16% of the total enzyme activity. Therefore, it is assumed likely that $K^+$-dependent and $Na^+$, $K^+$-activated ATPases are not the main factors to control the fluid accumulation at the time of estrus, but may be the factors to reabsorb the luminal fluid into the uterine epithelium at the time of metaestrus, and that $Mg^++$-dependent phosphatase, transport ATPase and alkaline phosphatase must be closely involved in the secretion of luminal fluid from the epithelial cells of the mouse uterus.

This paper deals with the delay-dependent and rate-independent stabilization of systems with multiple unknown time-varying delays and time-varying structured uncertainties. All the linear matrix inequalities based conditions are derived by employing free-weighting matrices to express the relationships between the terms in the Leibniz-Newton formula. The criteria do not require any tuning parameters. Numerical examples demonstrate the validity of the method.

A long-time behavior of global solutions for a dispersive-dissipative equation with time-dependent damping terms is investigated under null Dirichlet boundary condition. By virtue of an appropriate new Lyapunov function and the Lojasiewicz-Simon inequality, we show that any global bounded solution converges to a steady state and get the rate of convergence as well, when damping coefficients are integrally positive and positive-negative, respectively. Moreover, under the assumptions on on-off or sign-changing damping, we derive an asymptotic stability of solutions.

We conducted uniaxial consolidation tests in mudstone samples with different clay content, in order to investigate time-dependent deformation and its characteristics. A significant amount of time-dependent strain was observed at a constant stress level immediately after a jump of stress was applied. For a given mudstone, the amount of time-dependent deformation was nearly proportional to the increment of stress, suggesting a linear viscous rheology. The amount of time-dependent strain increases with clay content, implying that clay plays an important role in creep of the unconsolidated mudstone. A power-law model was suitably applied to our results, suggesting that a short-term prediction of time-dependent deformation of the mudstone is tentatively feasible.

Most existing studies on time-dependent networks have been focused on finding a minimum delay path given a departure time at the origin. There, however, frequently happens a situation where users can select any departure time in a certain time interval and want to spend as little time as possible on traveling the networks. In that case. the delay spent on traveling networks depends on not only paths but also the actual departure time at the origin. In this paper, we propose a new problem in time-dependent networks whose objective is to find an optimal departure time given possible departure time interval at the origin. From the optimal departure time, we can obtain a path with minimum delay among all paths for possible departure times at the origin. In addition, we present an algorithm for finding an optimal departure time by enumerating trees which remain shortest path tree for a certain time interval.

A general step-by-step simulation for the time-dependent analysis of segmentally-erected prestressed concrete box-girder bridges is presented. A three dimensional finite-element model for the balanced-cantilever construction of segmental bridges, including effects of the load history, material nonlinearity, creep, shrinkage, and aging of concrete and the relaxation of prestressing steel was developed using ABAQUS software. The models included three-dimensional shell elements to model the box-girder walls and Rebar elements representing the prestressing tendons. The step-by-step procedure allows simulating the construction stages, effects of time-dependent deformations of materials and changes in the structural system of the bridges. The structural responses during construction and throughout the service life were traced. A comparison of the developed computer simulation with available experimental results was conducted and good agreement was found. Deflection of the bridge deck, changes in stresses and strains and the redistribution of internal forces were calculated for different examples of bridges, built by the balanced-cantilever method, over thirty-year duration. Significant time-dependent effects on the bridge deflections and redistribution of internal forces and stresses were observed. The ultimate load carrying capacities of the bridges and the behavior before collapse were also determined. It was observed that the ultimate load carrying capacity of such bridges decreases with time as a result of time-dependent effects.

We investigated both classical and quantum properties of a damped harmonic oscillator with a time-variable elastic coefficient using invariant operator method. We acquired the energy eigenvalues, uncertainties and probability densities for several types of wave packet. The probability density corresponding to the displaced minimum wave packet expressed in terms of the time-dependent Gaussian function. The displaced minimum wave packet not only be attenuated but also oscillates about x = 0. We confirmed that there exist correspondence between quantum and classical behaviors for the time-dependent damped harmonic oscillator.
