On several new methods to polar decomposition computation

In this paper, the polar decomposition of a deformation gradient tensor is analyzed in detail. The four new methods for polar decomposition computation are given: (1) the iterated method, (2) the principal invariant's method, (3) the principal rotation axis's method, (4) the coordinate transformation's method. The iterated method makes it possible to establish the nonlinear finite element method based on polar decomposition. Furthermore, the material time derivatives of the stretch tensor and the rotation tensor are obtained by explicit and simple expressions.

On the Derivative of Some Tensor-Valued Functions

An explicit expression of the derivative of the square root of a tensor is provided, by using the expressions of the derivatives of the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a symmetric tensor. Starting from this result, the derivatives of the right and left stretch tensor U, V and of the rotation R with respect to the deformation gradient F, are calculated. Expressions for the material time derivatives of U, V and R are also given. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

A direct representation of the rotation tensor in polar decomposition of deformation gradient and its applications

Through a variational approach, an explicit connection between the additive and the polar decompositions of deformation gradient has been established. An exact formula for determining the rotation tensor in polar decomposition is obtained. The formula is fundamental in continuum mechanics and can be used to separate the rotation and the pure strain in deformation, by which various approximate expressions can be easily obtained.     

Dynamic rotation and stretch tensors from a dynamic polar decomposition

The local rigid-body component of continuum deformation is typically characterized by the rotation tensor, obtained from the polar decomposition of the deformation gradient. Beyond its well-known merits, the polar rotation tensor also has a lesser known dynamical inconsistency: it does not satisfy the fundamental superposition principle of rigid-body rotations over adjacent time intervals. As a consequence, the polar rotation diverts from the observed mean material rotation of fibers in fluids, and introduces a purely kinematic memory effect into computed material rotation. Here we derive a generalized polar decomposition for linear processes that yields a unique, dynamically consistent rotation component, the dynamic rotation tensor, for the deformation gradient. The left dynamic stretch tensor is objective, and shares the principal strain values and axes with its classic polar counterpart. Unlike its classic polar counterpart, however, the dynamic stretch tensor evolves in time without spin. The dynamic rotation tensor further decomposes into a spatially constant mean rotation tensor and a dynamically consistent relative rotation tensor that is objective for planar deformations. We also obtain simple expressions for dynamic analogues of Cauchy's mean rotation angle that characterize a deforming body objectively.     

Derivatives and Rates of the Stretch and Rotation Tensors

General expressions for the derivatives and rates of the stretch and rotation tensors with respect to the deformation gradient are derived. They are both specialized to some of the formulas already available in the literature and used to derive some new ones, in three and two dimensions. Essential ingredients of the treatment are basic elements of differential calculus for tensor valued functions of tensors and recently derived results on the solution of the tensor equation A X + XA= H in the unknown X. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Determination of the Rotation Tensor in the Polar Decomposition

An explicit representation for the rotation tensor which contains the lower powers of deformation gradient is proposed and used to evaluate the angle and axis of the rotation tensor. Some related equations about the rotation tensor are established. Through the approximate analysis, the relation between the S-R decomposition and the polar decomposition is examined. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

The invariant representation of spins with applications in the theory of finite deformations

Based on the general solution given to a kind of linear tensor equations, the spin of a symmetric tensor is derived in an invariant form. The result is applied to find the spins of the left and the right stretch tensors and the relation among different rotation rate tensors has been discussed. According to work conjugacy, the relations between Cauchy stress and the stresses conjugate to Hill's generalized strains are obtained. Particularly, the logarithmic strain, its time rate and the conjugate stress have been discussed in detail. These results are important in modeling the constitutive relations for finite deformations in continuum mechanics.

ORTHOGONAL POLYNOMIALS AND DETERMINANT FORMULAS OF FUNCTION-VALUED PADE-TYPE APPROXIMATION USING FOR SOLUTION OF INTEGRAL EQUATIONS

To solve Fredholm integral equations of the second kind, a generalized linear functional is introduced and a new function-valued Pade-type approximation is denned. By means of the power series expansion of the solution, this method can construct an approximate solution to solve the given integral equation. On the basis of the orthogonal polynomials, two useful determinant expressions of the numerator polynomial and the denominator polynomial for Pade-type approximation are explicitly given.
