基于虚内键理论的材料多尺度力学模型

宏观上线弹性材料的力学属性只需杨氏模量和泊松比两个相互独立的参量来控制;相应地,微观上也需要两个相互独立的参量来控制.基于这个思想,在原VIB模型中引入了切向键,并提出了VMIB模型.该模型在材料的宏观力学属性与微观虚拟键力学属性之间建立起了一座桥梁.考虑到模型中能量密度函数含有坐标轴方向向量一项,该文对能量密度函数的张量性进行了严格的数学证明,并将VMIB模型初步应用到脆性材料的单轴受压破坏.

MULTI-SCALE NUMERICAL MODEL FOR SIMULATING CONCRETE MATERIAL BASED ON FRACTAL THEORY

A new multi-scale numerical model is presented using the fractal theory and adopting FEM to simulate the failure of concrete.The relation between the fractal box dimension in large scale and the damage to concrete in small scale is deduced.And the evolutionary process of elastic modulus and strength in small scale is given.Consequently,the multi-scale numerical model is proposed to describe the constitutive relation of concrete between small scale and large scale.A two-dimensional static analysis of a concrete block is performed by using this model and the calculation result is discussed.The propagation of cracks of the concrete block is also studied.     

A FINITE ELEMENT—MATHEMATICAL PROGRAMMING METHOD FOR ELASTOPLASTIC PROBLEMS BASED ON THE PRINCIPLE OF VIRTUAL WORK

By expanding the yielding function according to Tay lor series and neglecting the high order terms,the elastoplastic constitutive equation is written in a linear complementary form.Based on this linear complementary form and the principle of virtual work,a finite element-complementary method is derived for elastoplastic problem.This method is available for materials which satisfy either associated or nonassociated flow rule.In addition,the existence and uniqueness of solution for the method are also discussed and some useful conclusions are given.     

A THEORY OF EFFECTIVE THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY FOR MATRIX-INCLUSION- MICROCRACK THREE-PHASE HETEROGENEOUS MATERIALS BASED ON MICROMECHANICS

The effective thermal conductivity of matrix-inclusion-microcrack three-phase heterogeneous materials is investigated with a self-consistent micromechanical method (SCM) and a random microstructure finite element method(RMFEM). In the SCM, microcracks are assumed to be randomly distributed and penny-shaped and inclusions to be spherical, the crack effect is accounted for by introducing a crack density parameter, the effective thermal conductivity is derived which relates the macroscopic behavior to the crack density parameter. In the RMFEM, the highly irregular microstructure of the heterogeneous media is accurately described, the interaction among the matrix-inclusion-microcracks is exactly treated, the inclusion shape effect and crack size effect are considered. A Ni/ZrO₂ particulate composite material containing randomly distributed, penny-shaped cracks is examined as an example. The main results obtained are: (1) the effective thermal conductivity is sensitive to the crack density and exhibits essentially a linear relationship with the density parameter; (2) the inclusion shape has a significant effect on the effective thermal conductivity and a polygon-shaped inclusion is more effective in increasing or decreasing the effective thermal conductivity than a sphere-shaped one; and (3) the SCM and RMFEM are compared and the two methods give the same effective property in the case in which the matrix thermal conductivity λ₁ is greater than the inclusion one λ₂. In the inverse case of λ₁ < λ₂, the two methods agree as the inclusion volume fraction and crack density are low and differ as they are high. A reasonable explanation for the agreement and deviation between the two methods in the case of λ₁ < λ₂ is made.
