  • Foundations of Continuum Mechanics
    Foundations of Continuum Mechanics • Concerned with material bodies (solids and fluids) which can change shape when loaded, and view is taken that bodies are continuous bodies. • Commonly known that matter is made up of discrete particles, and only known continuum is empty space. • Experience has shown that descriptions based on continuum modeling is useful, provided only that variation of field quantities on the scale of deformation mechanism is small in some sense. Goal of continuum mechanics is to solve BVP. The main steps are 1. Mathematical preliminaries (Tensor theory) 2. Kinematics 3. Balance laws and field equations 4. Constitutive laws (models) Mathematical structure adopted to ensure that results are coordinate invariant and observer invariant and are consistent with material symmetries. Vector and Tensor Theory Most tensors of interest in continuum mechanics are one of the following type: 1. Symmetric – have 3 real eigenvalues and orthogonal eigenvectors (eg. Stress) 2. Skew-Symmetric – is like a vector, has an associated axial vector (eg. Spin) 3. Orthogonal – describes a transformation of basis (eg. Rotation matrix) → 3 3 3 u = ∑uiei = uiei T = ∑∑Tijei ⊗ e j = Tijei ⊗ e j i=1 ~ ij==1 1 When the basis ei is changed, the components of tensors and vectors transform in a specific way. Certain quantities remain invariant – eg. trace, determinant. Gradient of an nth order tensor is a tensor of order n+1 and divergence of an nth order tensor is a tensor of order n-1. ∂ui ∂ui ∂Tij ∇ ⋅u = ∇ ⊗ u = ei ⊗ e j ∇ ⋅ T = e j ∂xi ∂x j ∂xi Integral (divergence) Theorems: T ∫∫RR∇ ⋅u dv = ∂ u⋅n da ∫∫RR∇ ⊗ u dv = ∂ u ⊗ n da ∫∫RR∇ ⋅ T dv = ∂ T n da Kinematics The tensor that plays the most important role in kinematics is the Deformation Gradient x(X) = X + u(X) F = ∇X ⊗ x(X) = I + ∇X ⊗ u(X) F can be used to determine 1.

  • Hydrostatic Forces on Surface
    24/01/2017 Lecture 7 Hydrostatic Forces on Surface In the last class we discussed about the Hydrostatic Pressure Hydrostatic condition, etc. To retain water or other liquids, you need appropriate solid container or retaining structure like Water tanks Dams Or even vessels, bottles, etc. In static condition, forces due to hydrostatic pressure from water will act on the walls of the retaining structure. You have to design the walls appropriately so that it can withstand the hydrostatic forces. To derive hydrostatic force on one side of a plane Consider a purely arbitrary body shaped plane surface submerged in water. Arbitrary shaped plane surface This plane surface is normal to the plain of this paper and is kept inclined at an angle of θ from the horizontal water surface. Our objective is to find the hydrostatic force on one side of the plane surface that is submerged. (Source: Fluid Mechanics by F.M. White) Let ‘h’ be the depth from the free surface to any arbitrary element area ‘dA’ on the plane. Pressure at h(x,y) will be p = pa + ρgh where, pa = atmospheric pressure. For our convenience to make various points on the plane, we have taken the x-y coordinates accordingly. We also introduce a dummy variable ξ that show the inclined distance of the arbitrary element area dA from the free surface. The total hydrostatic force on one side of the plane is F pdA where, ‘A’ is the total area of the plane surface. A This hydrostatic force is similar to application of continuously varying load on the plane surface (recall solid mechanics).

    Chapter 6: Bending Chapter Objectives Determine the internal moment at a section of a beam Determine the stress in a beam member caused by bending Determine the stresses in composite beams Bending analysis This wood ruler is held flat against the table at the left, and fingers are poised to press against it. When the fingers apply forces, the ruler deflects, primarily up or down. Whenever a part deforms in this way, we say that it acts like a “beam.” In this chapter, we learn to determine the stresses produced by the forces and how they depend on the beam cross-section, length, and material properties. Support types: Load types: Concentrated loads Distributed loads Concentrated moments Sign conventions: How do we define whether the internal shear force and bending moment are positive or negative?

Sonin 2001 2 1 Surface Stress So far we have been dealing with quantities like density and velocity, which at a given instant have specific values at every point in the fluid or other continuously distributed material. The density (rv ,t) is a scalar field in the sense that it has a scalar value at every point, while the velocity v (rv ,t) is a vector field, since it has a direction as well as a magnitude at every point. Fig. 1: A surface element at a point in a continuum. The surface stress is a more complicated type of quantity. The reason for this is that one cannot talk of the stress at a point without first defining the particular surface through v that point on which the stress acts. A small fluid surface element centered at the point r is defined by its area A (the prefix indicates an infinitesimal quantity) and by its outward v v unit normal vector n .

  • 2 Review of Stress, Linear Strain and Elastic Stress- Strain Relations
    2 Review of Stress, Linear Strain and Elastic Stress- Strain Relations 2.1 Introduction In metal forming and machining processes, the work piece is subjected to external forces in order to achieve a certain desired shape. Under the action of these forces, the work piece undergoes displacements and deformation and develops internal forces. A measure of deformation is defined as strain. The intensity of internal forces is called as stress. The displacements, strains and stresses in a deformable body are interlinked. Additionally, they all depend on the geometry and material of the work piece, external forces and supports. Therefore, to estimate the external forces required for achieving the desired shape, one needs to determine the displacements, strains and stresses in the work piece. This involves solving the following set of governing equations : (i) strain-displacement relations, (ii) stress- strain relations and (iii) equations of motion. In this chapter, we develop the governing equations for the case of small deformation of linearly elastic materials. While developing these equations, we disregard the molecular structure of the material and assume the body to be a continuum. This enables us to define the displacements, strains and stresses at every point of the body. We begin our discussion on governing equations with the concept of stress at a point. Then, we carry out the analysis of stress at a point to develop the ideas of stress invariants, principal stresses, maximum shear stress, octahedral stresses and the hydrostatic and deviatoric parts of stress. These ideas will be used in the next chapter to develop the theory of plasticity.

    Unified discrete approach of acceleration conservation Jean-Paul Caltagirone Université de Bordeaux Institut de Mécanique et d’Ingéniérie Département TREFLE, UMR CNRS nř 5295 16 Avenue Pey-Berland, 33607 Pessac Cedex [email protected] Abstract Discrete mechanics is used to present fluid mechanics, fluid-structure interactions, electromagnetism and optical physics in a coherent theoretical and numerical approach. Acceleration considered as an absolute quantity is written as a sum of two terms, i.e. an irrotational and a divergence-free component corresponding to a formal Hodge-Helmholtz decomposition. The variables of this equation of discrete motion are only the scalar and vector potential of the acceleration, whatever the physical field. These, like the physical properties, are only expressed as a function of two fundamental units, namely a length and a time. The numerical methodology associated with this equation of motion is based on discrete operators, gradient, divergence, primal and dual curl applied to the velocity components of the primal geometric topology. Some solutions resulting from simulations carried out in each domain make it possible to find the results obtained from the Navier-Stokes, Navier-Lamé and Maxwell equations and to show the coherence of the proposed unified approach. Keywords: Discrete Mechanics; Weak Equivalence Principle; Hodge-Helmholtz Decomposition; Navier-Stokes equations; Maxwell equations 1 Introduction The Navier-Stokes, Navier-Lamé and Maxwell equations are fully representative of physical phenomena in the fields of fluid mechanics, solid mechanics and electromagnetism. Continuum mechanics [25], [26] was supposed to unify mechanics but two centuries after their derivation, it turns out that its (Eulerian or Lagrangian) formulations are different; velocity is the variable in fluid media whereas it is displacement in solid media.

    ME 333C - Mechanics/Continuum Mechanics Tue/Thu 10:30-11:50, Hewlett 201 Rijk de Rooij ([email protected]) Ellen Kuhl ([email protected]) Summary. Introduction to linear and nonlinear continuum mechanics of solids; Introduction to tensor algebra and tensor analysis; Kinematics of motion; Balance equations of mass, linear and angular momentum, energy, and entropy; Constitutive equations of isotropic and anisotropic hyperelastic solids; Introduction to numerical solution techniques. Although the basic concepts of continuum mechanics have been established more than five decades ago, the 21st century faces many new and exciting potential applications of continuum mechanics that go way beyond the standard classical theory. When applying continuum mechanics to these challenging new phenomena, it is important to understand the main three ingredients of continuum mechanics: the kinematic equations, the balance equations and the constitutive equations. After a brief revision of the relevant equations in tensor algebra and analysis, this class will introduce the basic concepts of finite strain kinematics. We will then discuss the balance equations for mass, linear and angular momentum, energy, and entropy. While all these equations are general and valid for any kind of material, the last set of equations, the constitutive equations, specifies particular subclasses of materials.

    Section 7.4 7.4 The Elementary Beam Theory In this section, problems involving long and slender beams are addressed. As with pressure vessels, the geometry of the beam, and the specific type of loading which will be considered, allows for approximations to be made to the full three-dimensional linear elastic stress-strain relations. The beam theory is used in the design and analysis of a wide range of structures, from buildings to bridges to the load-bearing bones of the human body. 7.4.1 The Beam The term beam has a very specific meaning in engineering mechanics: it is a component that is designed to support transverse loads, that is, loads that act perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the beam, Fig. 7.4.1. The beam supports the load by bending only. Other mechanisms, for example twisting of the beam, are not allowed for in this theory. applied force applied pressure cross section roller support pin support Figure 7.4.1: A supported beam loaded by a force and a distribution of pressure It is convenient to show a two-dimensional cross-section of the three-dimensional beam together with the beam cross section, as in Fig. 7.4.1. The beam can be supported in various ways, for example by roller supports or pin supports (see section 2.3.3). The cross section of this beam happens to be rectangular but it can be any of many possible shapes. It will assumed that the beam has a longitudinal plane of symmetry, with the cross section symmetric about this plane, as shown in Fig.
