Some dynamical problems in micropolar elasticity

Dilbag, Singh 14 October 2008 (has links) (PDF)
In this thesis, we have investigated some interesting dynamical problems in microstructural continuum using Eringen's polar theory. These problems are pertaining to surface waves in a microstretch plate, Stoneley waves at an interface between two different microstretch half-spaces, surface waves in a micropolar cylindrical borehole filled with micropolar fluid, reflection and transmission of elastic waves at a liquid/solid half-space and reflection of elastic waves from a micropolar mixture porous half-space.

Micropolar Continuum Modeling of Large Space Structures with Flexible Joints and Thermal Effects: Theory and Experiment

Salehian, Armaghan 26 February 2008 (has links)
The presented work is intended to develop a geometrically reduced order (homogenized) model for a large antenna space structure with flexible joints. An energy equivalence concept is employed to find the continuum model for the system. The kinetic and strain energy expressions of the fundamental elements are found based on the assumptions of the micropolar elasticity theory. Necessary assumptions are made to reduce the order of the strain variables while retaining the effects of the micro-rotations that are coupled to the primary strain terms. As a result, a micropolar-based continuum model is found for the structure with torsional joints. The vibrations equations of motion for various coordinates of the one dimensional equivalent model are presented. Subsequently, the relations between the physical parameters of the distributed parameter model and the radar structure are introduced. The effect of the asymmetric mass distribution as a result of the addition of the radar panel to the truss system is studied. For the purpose of the experimental validation of the suggested model a planar truss structure with Pratt Girder configuration was built and tested in the laboratory. The results for the experimental frequency response functions are shown to be in good agreement with the theory. Finally, the continuum model is used to quantify the effects of the thermally induced disturbances on the satellite system during the eclipse transition. / Ph. D.

Modèles de comportement non linéaire des matériaux architecturés par des méthodes d'homogénéisation discrètes en grandes déformations. Application à des biomembranes et des textiles / Nonlinear constitutive models for lattice materials by discrete homogenization methods at large strains. Application to biomembranes and textiles

ElNady, Khaled 18 February 2015 (has links)
Ce travail porte sur le développement de modèles micromécaniques pour le calcul de la réponse homogénéisée de matériaux architecturés, en particulier des matériaux se présentant sous forme de treillis répétitifs. Les matériaux architecturés et micro-architecturés couvrent un domaine très large de de propriétés mécaniques, selon la connectivité nodale, la disposition géométrique des éléments structuraux, leurs propriétés mécaniques, et l'existence d'une possible hiérarchie structurale. L'objectif principal de la thèse est la prise en compte des nonlinéarités géométriques résultant des évolutions importantes de la géométrie initiale du treillis, causée par une rigidité de flexion des éléments structuraux faible en regard de leur rigidité en extension. La méthode dite d'homogénéisation discrète est développée pour prendre en compte les non linéarités géométriques pour des treillis quais périodiques; des schémas incrémentaux sont construits qui reposent sur la résolution incrémentale et séquentielle des problèmes de localisation - homogénéisation posés sur une cellule de base identifiée, soumise à un chargement contrôlé en déformation. Le milieu continu effectif obtenu est en général un milieu micropolaire anisotrope, dont les propriétés effectives reflètent la disposition des éléments structuraux et leurs propriétés mécaniques. La réponse non affine des treillis conduit à des effets de taille qui sont pris en compte soit par un enrichissement de la cinématique par des variables de microrotation ou par la prise en compte des seconds gradients du déplacement. La construction de milieux effectifs du second gradient est faite dans un formalisme de petites perturbations. Il est montré que ces deux types de milieu effectif sont complémentaires en raison de l'analogie existant lors de la construction théorique des réponses homogénéisées, et par le fait qu'ils fournissent des longueurs internes en extension, flexion et torsion. Des applications à des structures tissées et des membranes biologiques décrites comme des réseaux de filaments quais-périodiques ont été faites. Les réponses homogénéisées obtenues sont validées par des comparaisons avec des simulations par éléments finis réalisées sur un volume élémentaire représentatif de la structure. Les schémas d'homogénéisation ont été implémentés dans un code de calcul dédié, alimenté par un fichier de données d'entrée de la géométrie du treillis et de ses propriétés mécaniques. Les modèles micromécaniques développés laissent envisager du fait de leur caractère prédictif la conception de nouveaux matériaux architecturés permettant d'élargir les frontières de l'espace 'matériaux-propriétés' / The present thesis deals with the development of micromechanical schemes for the computation of the homogenized response of architectured materials, focusing on periodical lattice materials. Architectured and micro-architectured materials cover a wide range of mechanical properties according to the nodal connectivity, geometrical arrangement of the structural elements, their moduli, and a possible structural hierarchy. The principal objective of the thesis is the consideration of geometrical nonlinearities accounting for the large changes of the initial lattice geometry, due to the small bending stiffness of the structural elements, in comparison to their tensile rigidity. The so-called discrete homogenization method is extended to the geometrically nonlinear setting for periodical lattices; incremental schemes are constructed based on a staggered localization-homogenization computation of the lattice response over a repetitive unit cell submitted to a controlled deformation loading. The obtained effective medium is a micropolar anisotropic continuum, the effective properties of which accounting for the geometrical arrangement of the structural elements within the lattice and their mechanical properties. The non affine response of the lattice leads to possible size effects which can be captured by an enrichment of the classical Cauchy continuum either by adding rotational degrees of freedom as for the micropolar effective continuum, or by considering second order gradients of the displacement field. Both strategies are followed in this work, the construction of second order grade continua by discrete homogenization being done in a small perturbations framework. We show that both strategies for the enrichment of the effective continuum are complementary due to the existing analogy in the construction of the micropolar and second order grade continua by homogenization. The combination of both schemes further delivers tension, bending and torsion internal lengths, which reflect the lattice topology and the mechanical properties of its structural elements. Applications to textiles and biological membranes described as quasi periodical networks of filaments are considered. The computed effective response is validated by comparison with FE simulations performed over a representative unit cell of the lattice. The homogenization schemes have been implemented in a dedicated code written in combined symbolic and numerical language, and using as an input the lattice geometry and microstructural mechanical properties. The developed predictive micromechanical schemes offer a design tool to conceive new architectured materials to expand the boundaries of the 'material-property' space
