Title Compression of a mean-stress sensitive plastic material by rotating plates

Abstract The theory of materials which are plastic, incompressible but sensitive to the mean stress is a common tool in the mechanics of granular media [1, 2]. However, the dependence of the yield condition on the mean stress is observed also for some alloys, although less pronounced than in granular materials [3-5]. Forming of such alloys is performed by the traditional processes of plastic working, which gives rise to specific boundary-value problems which do not occur in the models of granular medium flows. In the present paper, we consider a material layer obeying equations of the model of [2]. The layer is subjected to compression by rotating plates with rough surfaces. Major attention is given to the behavior of the solution near the friction surface. It is known [6, 7] that in the case of classical plasticity, the velocity field is singular near the surface of maximal friction (on such surfaces, the specific friction forces are equal to the shear yield stress). This friction law, when used in other models of materials, causes considerable difficulties, if one tries to generalize the classical plasticity problems. As an illustration, we note that formal generalizations of the Prandtl solution of the problem of compression of a plastic material with rough surface between two parallel plates with rough surfaces (this solution can be found, for instance, in [8]) to viscoplastic materials [9] or to plastic hardening materials [10] are unjustified in the case of the maximal friction law (in both cases, the average hardening per unit length tends to infinity as the friction forces approach their maximal values). Such a behavior of solutions takes place for any deviation from the model of ideal rigid-plastic materials. However, the solution of a similar problem obtained in [11] within the framework of the model from [2] exists in the case of limit friction law proposed in [11, 12], and this solution predicts a finite mean force per unit length. Direct verification shows that this solution is singular and the asymptotic behavior of the velocity field near the friction surface is quite similar to that observed in the case of classical plasticity [6, 7]. In the present paper, we use similar assumptions, the model of material from [2], and the friction law from [11, 12] and obtain a solution of the problem for a layer compressed between two rotating plates. The problem is reduced to a linear nonhomogeneous second-order ordinary differential equation with a regular singular point corresponding to the friction surface.
