PurposeThe purpose of this study is to present the effectiveness and robustness of a numerical algorithm based on the block Newton method for the nonlinear kinematic hardening rules adopted in modeling ductile materials.Design/methodology/approachElastoplastic problems can be defined as a coupled problem of the equilibrium equation for the overall structure and the yield equations for the stress state at every material point. When applying the Newton method to the coupled residual equations, the displacement field and the internal variables, which represent the plastic deformation, are updated simultaneously.FindingsThe presented numerical scheme leads to an explicit form of the hardening behavior, which includes the evolution of the equivalent plastic strain and the back stress, with the internal variables. The features of the present approach allow the displacement field and the hardening behavior to be updated straightforwardly. Thus, the scheme does not have any local iterative calculations and enables us to simultaneously decrease the residuals in the coupled boundary value problems.Originality/valueA pseudo-stress for the local residual and an algebraically derived consistent tangent are applied to elastic-plastic boundary value problems with nonlinear kinematic hardening. The numerical procedure incorporating the block Newton method ensures a quadratic rate of asymptotic convergence of a computationally efficient solution scheme. The proposed algorithm provides an efficient and robust computation in the elastoplastic analysis of ductile materials. Numerical examples under elaborate loading conditions demonstrate the effectiveness and robustness of the numerical scheme implemented in the finite element analysis.

PurposeTransient response of continuous composite material (CCM) fin made of high thermally conductive composite material is presented. The continuously varying effective properties of composite material such as thermal conductivity, heat capacity and density have been modelled using the Mori-Tanaka homogenization theory and rule of mixture. Additionally, temperature dependency of thermal conductivity, heat generation (composite materials) and convection coefficient (fluid properties) have also been incorporated. Different base boundary conditions are addressed such as oscillating heat flow, oscillating temperature, step-changing heat flow and step-changing temperature. At the other boundary, the fin is assumed to have a convective tip.Design/methodology/approachLattice Boltzmann method is implemented using an in-house source code for obtaining the numerical solution of typical non-linear heat balance equation of the aforementioned problem under various transient base boundary conditions.FindingsThe effects of various thermal parameters such as material diffusivity ratio and conductivity ratio, area ratio and Biot number on transient response of fin and temperature distribution of fins are studied and interpreted. The heat transfer rate and time for attainment of steady state temperature of metal matrix composite (MMC) fin are found to be proportionally dependent on their diffusivity ratio. Additionally for higher values of area ratio and biot number, MMC fins are reported to dissipate the heat more efficiently in comparision to homogeneous fins in terms of time required to attain the steady state and surface temperature.Practical implicationsResponse of transient fin associated with advanced class of material can facilitates the practicing engineers for designing high-performance and/or miniaturized thermal management devices as used in electronic packaging industries.Originality/valueStudies of composite fin consisting of laminating second layer of material over the first layer have been reported previously, however transient response of CCM fin fabricated by continuously varying the volume fraction of two materials along the fin length has not been reported till date. Such material finds its application in thermal management and electronic packaging industries. Results are plotted in form of a graph for different application-wise material combinations that have not been reported earlier, and it can be treated as design data.
