ANALYSES ON NONLINEAR COUPLING OF MAGNETO-THERMO-ELASTICITY OF FERROMAGNETIC THIN SHELL I： GENERALIZED VARIATIONAL THEORETICAL MODELING

Based on the generalized variational principle of magneto-thermo-elasticity of the ferromagnetic elastic medium, a nonlinear coupling theoretical modeling for a ferromagnetic thin shell is developed. All governing equations and boundary conditions for the ferromagnetic shell are obtained from the variational manipulations on the magnetic scalar potential, temperature and the elastic displacement related to the total energy functional. The multi-field couplings and geometrical nonlinearity of the ferromagnetic thin shell are taken into account in the modeling. The general modeling can be further deduced to existing models of the magneto-elasticity and the thermo-elasticity of a ferromagnetic shell and magneto-thermo-elasticity of a ferromagnetic plate, which are coincident with the ones in literature.     

ANALYSES ON NONLINEAR COUPLING OF MAGNETO-THERMO-ELASTICITY OF FERROMAGNETIC THIN SHELL-Ⅱ: FINITE ELEMENT MODELING AND APPLICATION

Based on the generalized variational principle of magneto-thermo-elasticity of a ferromagnetic thin shell established (see, Analyses on nonlinear coupling of magneto-thermo-elasticity of ferromagnetic thin shell-Ⅰ), the present paper developed a finite element modeling for the mechanical-magneto-thermal multi-field coupling of a ferromagnetic thin shell. The numerical modeling composes of finite element equations for three sub-systems of magnetic, thermal and deformation fields, as well as iterative methods for nonlinearities of the geometrical large-deflection and the multi-field coupling of the ferromagnetic shell. As examples, the numerical simulations on magneto-elastic behaviors of a ferromagnetic cylindrical shell in an applied magnetic field, and magneto-thermo-elastic behaviors of the shell in applied magnetic and thermal fields are carried out. The results are in good agreement with the experimental ones.     

Nonlinear strain gradient elastic thin shallow shells

The governing equilibrium equations for strain gradient elastic thin shallow shells are derived, considering nonlinear strains and linear constitutive strain gradient elastic relations. Adopting Kirchhoff’s theory of thin shallow structures, the equilibrium equations, along with the boundary conditions, are formulated through a variational procedure. It turns out that new terms are introduced, indicating the importance of the cross-section area in bending of thin plates. Those terms are missing from the existing strain gradient shallow thin shell theories. Those terms highly increase the stiffness of the structures. When the curvature of the shallow shell becomes zero, the governing equilibrium for the plates is derived.     

A polar theory for vibrations of thin elastic shells

In relation to a polar continuum, this paper presents a 2-D shear deformable theory for the high frequency vibrations of a thin elastic shell. To begin with, the 3-D fundamental equations of the micropolar elastic continuum are expressed as the Euler–Lagrange equations of a unified variational principle. Next, the kinematic variables of the shell are represented by the power series expansions in its thickness coordinate, and then, they are used to establish the 2-D theory by means of the variational principle. The 2-D theory is derived in invariant variational and differential forms and governs all the types of vibrations of the functionally graded micropolar shell. Lastly, the uniqueness is investigated in solutions of the initial mixed boundary value problems defined by the 2-D theory, and some of special cases are indicated in the theory.     

A VARIATIONAL PRINCIPLE ON MAGNETOELASTIC INTERACTION OF FERROMAGNETIC THIN PLATES

The key to revealing the behaviors of magnetoelastic interaction is how to express themagnetic forces applying on a ferronqagnetic elastic body.In this paper,a functional for a ferromag-netic thin plate in magnetic fields is proposed by taking the summation of the magnetic energy of themagnetic system and the strain energy of the elastic plates.We present a variational principle for theproblem by choosing the variations of magnetic potential and deflection as independent variates eachother.Based on the principle,not only are the simultancous governing equations for magnetic fieldsand deformation of structures deduced,but also a general expression of magnetic force acting on theplates is gained,which makes it possible to commonly simulate the distinct two experiments of magne-toelastic interaction in a theoretical model.Thus,it can be used to theoretical prediction of the magne-toelastic interaction of ferromagnetic plates in a complex environment of applied magnetic fields.

A magnetoelastic theoretical model for soft ferromagnetic shell in magnetic field

With the aid of a generalized variational method, in this paper, a theoretical model for soft ferromagnetic shells is derived to describe their magnetoelastic behavior in an applied magnetic field. Having made a quantitative comparison between the numerical predictions given by several theoretical models and the experimental results on strains of a cylindrical shell, we find that the predictions got by our model are in good agreement with the experimental data. It is also found that the Moon’s model is a special case of the model derived in this paper when the relative magnetic permeability μ_r>10⁴, which confirms that it is reasonable for the Moon’s model to calculate strains of the soft ferromagnetic shells. Having displayed the distribution of the equivalent magnetic force in the length of the cylindrical shell and its circumferential bending strains with different elastic end constraints, we give an explanation for the discrepancy between Moon’s analytical results and his experimental ones.
