A Hierarchy PDE point of view on Material Modeling
November 1, 2013
3-4 PM, 646 PGH
Abstract
A set of linear/nonlinear elasticity theory is examined on material modeling.
In particular, crack problems are solved under each different elasticity theories.
The governing partial differential equations are derived, and its hierarchy structure is discovered.
A focus is on the strain energy function in which both macro and micro
structure of the material can be considered. The material modeling also includes
“homogeneous / nonhomogeneous” materials (e.g. functionally graded materials).
Crack problems are posed and solved, and numerical results including crack displacement
profiles and stress singularities in front of the crack-tip will be presented.
