The problem of determining minimal representations for anisotropic elastic constitutive equations is proposed and investigated. For elastic constitutive equations in any given case of anisotropy, it is shown that there exist generating sets consisting of six generators and such generating sets are minimal in all possible generating sets. This fact implies that most of the established results for representations of elastic constitutive equations are not minimal and remain to be sharpened. For elastic constitutive equations in some cases of anisotropy, including orthotropy, transverse isotropy, the trigonal crystal class S

Non-linear stress-strain equations for incompressible, transversely isotropic elastic materials are developed. In order to obtain these equations, the expressions for a strain energy function is found. The derivation of the strain energy function follows a geometrical approach and a method suggested by Mooney. These stress-strain relations are expressed in terms of three principal stretches to the sixth order. 相似文献

In this paper, we are interested in developing constitutive equations for fiber-reinforced nonlinearly viscoelastic bodies, in particular for transversely isotropic nonlinearly viscoelastic solids. It follows from results in the theory of algebraic invariants that constitutive equations for such materials can be expressed in terms of functions of 18 independent invariants associated with deformation and fiber orientation. These invariants are analyzed, and we obtain restrictions such as positivity of some of them. 相似文献

This paper is concerned with constitutive equations in which the stress at an instant of time,t, say, is a functional of the deformation gradient history up to and includingt. It is assumed that the deformation gradient histories are of bounded variation and are continuous, or piece-wise continuous with a countable number of salti. It is shown that if the stress functional isn times Fréchet differentiable in the sense of the supremum norm, it can be represented by a series of multiple integrals in the deformation gradient history, with an error or ordern + 1 in the displacement gradients. The relation of this type of integral representation to that of Green and Rivlin is discussed. 相似文献

We consider an incompressible nonlinearly elastic material in which a matrix is reinforced by strong fibers, for example fibers of nylon or carbon aligned in one family of curves in a rubber matrix. Rather than adopting the constraint of fiber inextensibility as has been previously assumed in the literature, here we develop a theory of fiber-reinforced materials based on the less restrictive idea of limiting fiber extensibility. The motivation for such an approach is provided by recent research on limiting chain extensibility models for rubber. Thus the basic idea of the present paper is simple: we adapt the limiting chain extensibility concept to limiting fiber extensibility so that the usual inextensibility constraint traditionally used is replaced by a unilateral constraint. We use a strain-energy density composed with two terms, the first being associated with the isotropic matrix or base material and the second reflecting the transversely isotropic character of the material due to the uniaxial reinforcement introduced by the fibers. We consider a base neo-Hookean model plus a special term that takes into account the limiting extensibility in the fiber direction. Thus our model introduces an additional parameter, namely that associated with limiting extensibility in the fiber direction, over previously investigated models. The aim of this paper is to investigate the mathematical and mechanical feasibility of this new model and to examine the role played by the extensibility parameter. We examine the response of the proposed models in some basic homogeneous deformations and compare this response to those of standard models for fiber reinforced rubber materials. The role of the strain-stiffening of the fibers in the new models is examined. The enhanced stability of the new models is then illustrated by investigation of cavitation instabilities. One of the motivations for the work is to apply the model to the biomechanics of soft tissues and the potential merits of the proposed models for this purpose are briefly discussed. 相似文献

The non-linear elastic constitutive equations proposed by Kauderer, [1], are a particular case of a class of quasi-linear equations. They cannot give an account of some specific non-linear effects of the Poynting and the Kelvin types. It is more useful in two and three dimensional problems to start with general non-linear forms proposed initially by Brillouin, [2]. 相似文献

A Hashin-Shtrikman-Willis variational principle is employed to derive two exact micromechanics-based nonlocal constitutive equations relating ensemble averages of stress and strain for two-phase, and also many types of multi-phase, random linear elastic composite materials. By exact is meant that the constitutive equations employ the complete spatially-varying ensemble-average strain field, not gradient approximations to it as were employed in the previous, related work of Drugan and Willis (J. Mech. Phys. Solids 44 (1996) 497) and Drugan (J. Mech. Phys. Solids 48 (2000) 1359) (and in other, more phenomenological works). Thus, the nonlocal constitutive equations obtained here are valid for arbitrary ensemble-average strain fields, not restricted to slowly-varying ones as is the case for gradient-approximate nonlocal constitutive equations. One approach presented shows how to solve the integral equations arising from the variational principle directly and exactly, for a special, physically reasonable choice of the homogeneous comparison material. The resulting nonlocal constitutive equation is applicable to composites of arbitrary anisotropy, and arbitrary phase contrast and volume fraction. One exact nonlocal constitutive equation derived using this approach is valid for two-phase composites having any statistically uniform distribution of phases, accounting for up through two-point statistics and arbitrary phase shape. It is also shown that the same approach can be used to derive exact nonlocal constitutive equations for a large class of composites comprised of more than two phases, still permitting arbitrary elastic anisotropy. The second approach presented employs three-dimensional Fourier transforms, resulting in a nonlocal constitutive equation valid for arbitrary choices of the comparison modulus for isotropic composites. This approach is based on use of the general representation of an isotropic fourth-rank tensor function of a vector variable, and its inverse. The exact nonlocal constitutive equations derived from these two approaches are applied to some example cases, directly rationalizing some recently-obtained numerical simulation results and assessing the accuracy of previous results based on gradient-approximate nonlocal constitutive equations. 相似文献

A body is composed of a homogeneous elastic material if there is a configuration of the body relative to which the Cauchy stress-response function does not depend upon position in that configuration. In this paper, necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of such a configuration are deduced. These are expressed as restrictions on the stress-response function associated with a single reference configuration. In particular, it is shown that a body that possesses a stress-free reference configuration and has an associatedinvertible (but position-dependent) elasticity four tensor that governs the response of this material at infinitesimal deformations is comprised of anin homogeneous material.This paper is dedicated to the memory of Professor Eli Sternberg. 相似文献

Constitutive equations for electrorheological (ER) fluids have been based on experimental results for steady shearing flows and constant electric fields. The fluids have been modeled as being rigid until a yield stress is reached. Additional stress is then proportional to the shear rate. Recent experimental results indicate that ER materials have a regime of solid-like response when deformed from a rest state. They behave in a viscoelastic-like manner under sinusoidal shearing and exhibit time-dependent response under sudden changes in shear rate or electric field. In this work, a constitutive theory for ER materials is presented which accounts for these recent experimental observations. The stress is given by a functional of the deformation gradient history and the electric field vector. Using the methods of continuum mechanics, a general three-dimensional constitutive equation is obtained. A sample constitutive equation is introduced which is then used to determine the response of an ER material for different shear histories. The calculated shear response is shown to be qualitatively similar to that observed experimentally. 相似文献

This paper studies large deflections of nonlinearly elastic cantilever beams made from materials obeying the generalized Ludwick
constitutive law. An exact moment-curvature formula which can be applied to study arbitrarily loaded and supported beams of
rectangular cross-sections is developed. Several advantages of the generalized Ludwick’s model are illustrated. Numerical
examples considered in this materially and geometrically nonlinear analysis clearly indicate rich nonlinear behavior of the
beams. 相似文献

One of the most widely used constitutive models for compressible isotropic nonlinearly elastic solids is the generalized Blatz-Ko material for foam-rubber and its various specializations. For this model, a unified derivation of necessary and sufficient conditions for ellipticity of the governing three-dimensional displacement equations of equilibrium is provided. When the parameterf occurring in the generalized Blatz-Ko model is in the range 0f<1, it is shown that ellipticity is always lost at sufficiently large stretches, while forf=1, the equilibrium equations are globally elliptic. The implications of these results for a variety of physical problems are discussed. 相似文献

Constitutive equations for the resultant forces and moments applied to a rod-like body necessarily couple the influences of the rod geometry and the constitutive nature of the three-dimensional material from which the rod was constructed. Consequently, even when the nonlinear constitutive equation of the three-dimensional material is known, the influence of the rod geometry on the constitutive response of the rod is not known. The main objective of this paper is to develop restrictions on the constitutive equations of nonlinear elastic rods which ensure that exact solutions of the rod equations are consistent with exact nonlinear solutions of the three-dimensional equations for all homogeneous deformations. Since these restrictions are nonlinear in nature they provide valuable general theoretical guidance for specific constitutive assumptions about the coupling of material and geometric properties of rods. Also, an example of a straight beam clamped at one end and subjected to a shear force at the other end is used to examine the validity of the proposed value for the transverse shear deformation coefficient. 相似文献

Constitutive equations for the resultant forces and moments applied to a shell-like body necessarily couple the influences of the shell geometry and the constitutive nature of the three-dimensional material from which the shell is constructed. Consequently, even when the nonlinear constitutive equation of the three-dimensional material is known, the complicated influence of the shell geometry on the constitutive response of the shell is not known. The main objective of this paper is to develop restrictions on the constitutive equations of nonlinear elastic shells which ensure that exact solutions of the shell equations are consistent with exact nonlinear solutions of the three-dimensional equations for homogeneous deformations. Since these restrictions are nonlinear in nature they provide valuable general theoretical guidance for specific constitutive assumptions about the coupling of material and geometric properties of shells. Examples of the linear theories of a plate and a spherical shell are considered. 相似文献

Residual stress is the stress present in the unloaded equilibrium configuration of a body. Because residual stresses can significantly affect the mechanical behavior of a component, the measurement of these stresses and the prediction of their effect on mechanical behavior are important objectives in many engineering problems. Common methods for the measurement of residual stresses include various destructive experiments in which the body is cut to relieve the residual stress. The resulting strain is measured and used to approximate the original residual stress in the intact body. In order to predict the mechanical behavior of a residually stressed body, a constitutive model is required that includes the influence of the residual stress.In this paper we present a method by which the data obtained from standard destructive experiments can be used to derive constitutive equations that describe the mechanical behavior of elastic residually stressed bodies. The derivation is based on the idea that for each infinitesimal neighborhood in a residually stressed body, there exists a corresponding stress free configuration. We refer to this stress free configuration as the virtual configuration of the infinitesimal neighborhood. The derivation requires that the constitutive equation for the stress free material be known and invertible; it is used to relate the residual stress to the deformation of the virtual configuration into the residually stressed configuration. Although the concept of the virtual configuration is central to the derivation, the geometry of this configuration need not be determined explicitly, and it need not be achievable experimentally, in order to construct the constitutive equation for the residually stressed body.The general mathematical forms of constitutive equations valid for residually stressed elastic materials have been derived previously for a number of cases. These general forms contain numerous unknown material-response functions or material constants that must be determined experimentally. In contrast, the method presented here results in a constitutive equation that is an explicit function of residual stress and includes only the material parameters required to describe the stress free material.After presenting the method for the derivation of constitutive equations, we explore the relationship between destructive experiments and the theory used in the derivation. Specifically, we discuss the use of the theory to improve the design of destructive experiments, and the use of destructive experiments to obtain the data required to construct the constitutive equation for a particular material. 相似文献

A nonlinear isotropic elastic block is subjected to a homogeneous deformation consisting of simple shear superposed on triaxial extension. Two new relations are established for this deformation which are valid for all nonlinear elastic isotropic materials, and hence are universal relations. The first is a relation between the stretch ratios in the plane of shear and the amount of shear when the deformation is supported only by shear tractions. The second relation is established for a thin-walled cylinder under combined extension, inflation and torsion. Each material element of the cylinder undergoes the same local homogeneous deformation of shear superposed on triaxial extension. The properties of this deformation are used to establish a relation between pressure, twisting moment, angle of twist and current dimensions when no axial force is applied to the cylinder. It is shown that these relations also apply for a mixture of a nonlinear isotropic solid and a fluid. 相似文献
