The Eshelby stress tensor,angular momentum tensor and scaling flux in micropolar elasticity

The (static) energy-momentum tensor, angular momentum tensor and scaling flux vector of micropolar elasticity are derived within the framework of Noether’s theorem on variational principles. Certain balance (or broken conservation) laws of broken translational, rotational and dilatational symmetries are found including inhomogeneities, elastic anisotropy, body forces, body couples and dislocations and disclinations present. The non-conserved J-, L- and M-integrals of micropolar elasticity are derived and discussed. We gave explicit formulae for the configurational forces, moments and work terms.     

A theorem on potential of isotropic symmetric second-order tensor function

In this paper we propose and prove the following theorem: If the second-order tensorH is an isotropic function of a symmetric second-order tensorT, and there exists a potential function forH, then there will certainly exist a potential function forT, too.

The existence and uniqueness of the screw tensor for the finite displacement of a rigidbody

The existence and uniqueness theorem of the screw tensor for the finite displacement of a rigidbody is proposed and then proved using the screw calculus. As a consequence, formulae are obtained for determining the screw tensor in terms of the finite displacement data of the rigidbody.     

Compliance and Hill polarization tensor of a crack in an anisotropic matrix

This work aims at developing an efficient method to compute the compliance due to a crack modeled as a flat ellipsoid of any shape in an infinite elastic matrix of arbitrary anisotropy (Eshelby problem) when no closed-form solution seems currently available. Whereas the solution of this problem usually requires the calculation of the so-called fourth-order Hill polarization tensor if the ellipsoid is not singular, it is shown that the crack compliance can be derived from the first-order term in the Taylor expansion of the Hill tensor with respect to the smallest aspect ratio of the ellipsoidal inclusion. For a 3D ellipsoidal crack model, this first-order term is expressed as a simple integral thanks to the Cauchy residue theorem. A similar method allows to express the same term in the case of a cylindrical crack model without any integral. A numerical example is finally treated.     

Potentials for tangent tensor fields on spheroids

In three-dimensional Euclidean space let S be a closed simply connected, smooth surface (spheroid). Let \(\hat n\) be the outward unit normal to S, ▽ _S the surface gradient on S, I _S the metric tensor on S, g_ij the four covariant components of I _S (i,j = 1, 2), h _ij the four covariant components of -\(\hat n\)xI _S , and D _i covariant differentiation on S. It is well known that for any tangent vector field u on S there exist scalars ? and ψ on S, unique to within additive constants, such that \(u = \nabla _s \varphi - \hat n \times \nabla _s \psi \); the covariant components of u are \(u_i = D_i \varphi + h_i^j D_j \psi \). This theorem is very useful in the study of vector fields in spherical coordinates. The present paper gives an analogous theorem for real second-order tangent tensor fields F on S: for any such F there exist scalar fields H, L, M, N such that the covariant components of F are

$$F_{ij} = H h{}_{ij} + Lg_{ij} + E_{ij} (M,N),$$

The asymptotic homogenization elasticity tensor properties for composites with material discontinuities

The classical asymptotic homogenization approach for linear elastic composites with discontinuous material properties is considered as a starting point. The sharp length scale separation between the fine periodic structure and the whole material formally leads to anisotropic elastic-type balance equations on the coarse scale, where the arising fourth rank operator is to be computed solving single periodic cell problems on the fine scale. After revisiting the derivation of the problem, which here explicitly points out how the discontinuity in the individual constituents’ elastic coefficients translates into stress jump interface conditions for the cell problems, we prove that the gradient of the cell problem solution is minor symmetric and that its cell average is zero. This property holds for perfect interfaces only (i.e., when the elastic displacement is continuous across the composite’s interface) and can be used to assess the accuracy of the computed numerical solutions. These facts are further exploited, together with the individual constituents’ elastic coefficients and the specific form of the cell problems, to prove a theorem that characterizes the fourth rank operator appearing in the coarse-scale elastic-type balance equations as a composite material effective elasticity tensor. We both recover known facts, such as minor and major symmetries and positive definiteness, and establish new facts concerning the Voigt and Reuss bounds. The latter are shown for the first time without assuming any equivalence between coarse and fine-scale energies (Hill’s condition), which, in contrast to the case of representative volume elements, does not identically hold in the context of asymptotic homogenization. We conclude with instructive three-dimensional numerical simulations of a soft elastic matrix with an embedded cubic stiffer inclusion to show the profile of the physically relevant elastic moduli (Young’s and shear moduli) and Poisson’s ratio at increasing (up to 100 %) inclusion’s volume fraction, thus providing a proxy for the design of artificial elastic composites.

On the derivatives of a subclass of isotropic tensor functions of a nonsymmetric tensor

This paper studies a subclass of isotropic tensor-valued functions of a nonsymmetric tensor, which satisfy the commutative condition, and their derivatives. This subclass of tensor functions includes tensor power series, exponential tensor function, etc., and is more general than those investigated before. In the case of three distinct eigenvalues, the derivatives of these tensor functions are constructed by solving a tensor equation, which is acquired by differentiating the commutative condition. By taking limits, the results are extended to the cases of repeated eigenvalues.     

The elastic energy-momentum tensor

The application to continuum mechanics of the general methods of the classical theory of fields is advocated and illustrated by the example of the static elastic field. The non-linear theory of elasticity is set up in the most convenient form (lagrangian coordinates and stress tensor). The appropriate energy-momentum tensor is derived, and it is shown that the integral of its normal component over a closed surface gives the force (as the term is used in the theory of solids) on defects and inhomogeneities within the surface. Other topics discussed are Günther's and related integrals, symmetrization of the energy-momentum tensor, and the Eulerian formulation. Some further extensions, existing and potential, are indicated.     

Dynamical stress function tensor

Isotropic polynomial invariants of Hall tensor

The Hall tensor emerges from the study of the Hall effect, an important magnetic effect observed in electric conductors and semiconductors. The Hall tensor is third-order and three-dimensional, whose first two indices are skew-symmetric. This paper investigates the isotropic polynomial invariants of the Hall tensor by connecting it with a second-order tensor via the third-order Levi-Civita tensor. A minimal isotropic integrity basis with 10 invariants for the Hall tensor is proposed. Furthermore, it is proved that this minimal integrity basis is also an irreducible isotropic function basis of the Hall tensor.     

NOTES ON A STUDY OF VECTOR BUNDLE DYNAMICAL SYSTEMS (Ⅱ)─PART 2

In the part 2, theorem 3.1 studied in part 1^[15] is proved first. The proof is obtained via a way of changing variables to reduce the original system of differential equations to a form concerning standard systems of equations in the theory of differentiable dynamical systems. Then by using theorem 3.1 together with the preliminary theorem 2.1, the main theorem of this paper announced in part 1 is proved. The definition of admissible perturbation is contained in the appendix of part 2. The meanings of the main theorem is described in the introduction of part 1.
