We study the numerical approximation of a static infinitesimal plasticity model of kinematic hardening with a nonlocal extension. Here, the free energy to be minimized is a combination of the elastic ...

The non-coaxiality of the directions of principal stresses and principal plastic strain rates in granular soils under stress rotations has long been observed and recognized in soil tests using both ...

It is now widely appreciated that synapses in the cerebral cortex are bidirectionally modified by sensory experience; that homeostatic mechanisms exist to ensure that activity in the cortical network ...
