Abstract The peridynamic model proposed by Silling [1] is an integral-type nonlocal contin- uum theory. It depends crucially upon the non-locality of the force interactions and does not explicitly involve the notion of deformation gradients. It provides a more general framework than the classical theory for problems involving discontinuities or other singularities in the deformation. In this dissertation, we focus on the re- cent developed peridynamic models including the ordinary bond-based, state-based models. The linear ordinary bond-based peridynamic model is analyzed under a rigorous analytical framework. Meanwhile the relation between the peridynamic energy space and fractional sobolev spaces is established for various micromodulus functions. And for better assisting the nonlocal mechanical modeling and nonlocal mathematical analysis, a vector calculus for the nonlocal operators is developed. Nonlocal analogs of several theorem and identities of the vector calculus for differ- ential operators are also presented. Relationships between the nonlocal operators and their differential counterparts are established. We further apply the nonlocal vector calculus to express the constitutive relation for the ordinary state-based peridynamic elastic material. The linear peridynamic models and associated non- local volume-constraints problems are defined and analyzed within the nonlocal vector calculus framework. Especially, the well-posedness of the ordinary state- based peridynamic model for a linear homogeneous and anisotropic material is demonstrated. Moreover, we establish relation between the classical elasticity and nonlocal peridynamic theory as the nonlocal horizon converges to zero. And un- der the mathematical framework introduced, we conduct the numerical analysis of the finite-dimensional approximations to the bond-based peridynamic models. A posterior error estimator for the peridynamic model is also proposed and studied. To recover the full elasticity theory in its local limit, we also developed a peri- dynamic double-bonds model. Finally an open issue involved in the peridynamic crack nucleation theory is discussed. iii Table of Contents List of Figures viii Acknowledgments ix Chapter 1 Overview 1 1.1 Motivation to the

  • Gravitation in the Surface Tension Model of Spacetime
    IARD 2018 IOP Publishing IOP Conf. Series: Journal of Physics: Conf. Series 1239 (2019) 012010 doi:10.1088/1742-6596/1239/1/012010 Gravitation in the surface tension model of spacetime H A Perko1 1Office 14, 140 E. 4th Street, Loveland, CO, USA 80537 E-mail: [email protected] Abstract. A mechanical model of spacetime was introduced at a prior conference for describing perturbations of stress, strain, and displacement within a spacetime exhibiting surface tension. In the prior work, equations governing spacetime dynamics described by the model show some similarities to fundamental equations of quantum mechanics. Similarities were identified between the model and equations of Klein-Gordon, Schrödinger, Heisenberg, and Weyl. The introduction did not explain how gravitation arises within the model. In this talk, the model will be summarized, corrected, and extended for comparison with general relativity. An anisotropic elastic tensor is proposed as a constitutive relation between stress energy and curvature instead of the traditional Einstein constant. Such a relation permits spatial geometric terms in the mechanical model to resemble quantum mechanics while temporal terms and the overall structure of tensor equations remain consistent with general relativity. This work is in its infancy; next steps are to show how the anisotropic tensor affects cosmological predictions and to further explore if geometry and quantum mechanics can be related in more than just appearance. 1. Introduction The focus of this research is to find a mechanism by which spacetime might curl, warp, or re-configure at small scales to provide a geometrical explanation for quantum mechanics while remaining consistent with gravity and general relativity.

  • Arxiv:1704.01012V1 [Cond-Mat.Mtrl-Sci] 1 Apr 2017 Is the Second Most Important Material After Silicon
    Symmetry and Piezoelectricity: Evaluation of α-Quartz coefficients C. Tannous Laboratoire des Sciences et Techniques de l'Information, de la Communication et de la Connaissance, UMR-6285 CNRS, Brest Cedex3, FRANCE Piezoelectric coefficients of α-Quartz are derived from symmetry arguments based on Neumann's Principle with three different methods: Fumi, Landau-Lifshitz and Royer-Dieulesaint. While Fumi method is tedious and Landau-Lifshitz requires additional physical principles to evaluate the piezo- electric coefficients, Royer-Dieulesaint is the most elegant and most efficient of the three techniques. PACS numbers: 77.65.-j, 77.65.Bn, 77.84.-s Keywords: Piezoelectricity, piezoelectric constants, piezoelectric materials I. INTRODUCTION AND MOTIVATION Physics students are exposed to various types of symmetry [1] and conservation laws in Graduate/Undergraduate Mechanics and Electromagnetism with Lorentz transformation and Gauge symmetries, in Graduate/Undergraduate Quantum Mechanics during the study of Atoms and Molecules. In undergraduate courses such as Special Relativity, Lorentz Transformation is used to unify symmetries between Mechanics and Electromagnetism. In Graduate High Energy Physics, the CPT theorem where C denotes charge conjugation (Q ! −Q), P is parity (r ! −r) and T is time reversal (t ! −t) as well as Gauge symmetry (Ai ! Ai + @iχ) provide an important insight into the role of symmetry in the building blocks of matter and unification of fundamental forces and interaction between particles. Graduate/undergraduate Solid State Physics provide a direct illustration of how Crystal Symmetry plays a fun- damental role in the determination of physical constants and transport coefficients as well as conservation and sim- plification of physical laws. The relation between symmetry and dispersion relations through Kramers theorem (T symmetry) is another example of the power of symmetry in Solid State physics.

  • Irreducible Matrix Resolution of the Elasticity Tensor for Symmetry Systems
    Irreducible matrix resolution of the elasticity tensor for symmetry systems Yakov Itin Inst. Mathematics, Hebrew Univ. of Jerusalem, Givat Ram, Jerusalem 91904, Israel, and Jerusalem College of Technology, Jerusalem 91160, Israel, email: [email protected] December 11, 2018, file ElastMatrix1.tex Abstract In linear elasticity, a fourth order elasticity (stiffness) tensor of 21 independent com- ponents completely describes deformation properties of a material. Due to Voigt, this tensor is conventionally represented by a 6 × 6 symmetric matrix. This classical matrix representation does not conform with the irreducible decomposition of the elasticity tensor. In this paper, we construct two alternative matrix representations. The 3 × 7 matrix representation is in a correspondence with the permutation transformations of indices and with the general linear transformation of the basis. An additional repre- sentation of the elasticity tensor by three 3 × 3 matrices is suitable for description the irreducible decomposition under the rotation transformations. We present the elasticity tensor of all crystal systems in these compact matrix forms and construct the hierarchy diagrams based on this representation. Key index words: anisotropic elasticity tensor, irreducible decomposition, matrix repre- sentation. Mathematics Subject Classification: 74B05, 15A69, 15A72.

  • APPLIED ELASTICITY, 2Nd Edition Matrix and Tensor Analysis of Elastic Continua
    APPLIED ELASTICITY, 2nd Edition Matrix and Tensor Analysis of Elastic Continua Talking of education, "People have now a-days" (said he) "got a strange opinion that every thing should be taught by lectures. Now, I cannot see that lectures can do so much good as reading the books from which the lectures are taken. I know nothing that can be best taught by lectures, expect where experiments are to be shewn. You may teach chymestry by lectures. — You might teach making of shoes by lectures.' " James Boswell: Lifeof Samuel Johnson, 1766 [1709-1784] ABOUT THE AUTHOR In 1947 John D Renton was admitted to a Reserved Place (entitling him to free tuition) at King Edward's School in Edgbaston, Birmingham which was then a Grammar School. After six years there, followed by two doing National Service in the RAF, he became an undergraduate in Civil Engineering at Birmingham University, and obtained First Class Honours in 1958. He then became a research student of Dr A H Chilver (now Lord Chilver) working on the stability of space frames at Fitzwilliam House, Cambridge. Part of the research involved writing the first computer program for analysing three-dimensional structures, which was used by the consultants Ove Arup in their design project for the roof of the Sydney Opera House. He won a Research Fellowship at St John's College Cambridge in 1961, from where he moved to Oxford University to take up a teaching post at the Department of Engineering Science in 1963. This was followed by a Tutorial Fellowship to St Catherine's College in 1966.

  • Valley Degeneracy in Biaxially Strained Aluminum Arsenide Quantum Wells
    PHYSICAL REVIEW B 84, 125319 (2011) Valley degeneracy in biaxially strained aluminum arsenide quantum wells S. Prabhu-Gaunkar,1 S. Birner,2 S. Dasgupta,2 C. Knaak,2 and M. Grayson1 1Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, Northwestern University, Evanston, Illinois 60208, USA 2Walter Schottky Institut, Technische Universitat¨ Munchen,¨ Garching DE-85748, Germany (Received 13 September 2010; revised manuscript received 19 May 2011; published 16 September 2011) This paper describes a complete analytical formalism for calculating electron subband energy and degeneracy in strained multivalley quantum wells grown along any orientation with explicit results for AlAs quantum wells (QWs). In analogy to the spin index, the valley degree of freedom is justified as a pseudospin index due to the vanishing intervalley exchange integral. A standardized coordinate transformation matrix is defined to transform between the conventional-cubic-cell basis and the QW transport basis whereby effective mass tensors, valley vectors, strain matrices, anisotropic strain ratios, piezoelectric fields, and scattering vectors are all defined in their respective bases. The specific cases of (001)-, (110)-, and (111)-oriented aluminum arsenide (AlAs) QWs are examined, as is the unconventional (411) facet, which is of particular importance in AlAs literature. Calculations of electron confinement and strain for the (001), (110), and (411) facets determine the critical well width for crossover from double- to single-valley degeneracy in each system. The biaxial Poisson ratio is calculated for the high-symmetry lower Miller index (001)-, (110)-, and (111)-oriented QWs. An additional shear-strain component arises in the higher Miller index (411)-oriented QWs and we define and solve for a shear-to-biaxial strain ratio.

  • Graphical Representation of the Generalized Hooke's Law Izei®Ei H
    TECHNISCHE MECHANIK, Band 21, Heft 2, (2001), 145-158 Manuskripteingang: 30. Januar 2001 Graphical Representation of the Generalized Hooke’s Law T. Böhlke, C. Brüggemann The anisotropic linear elastic behavior of single crystals can be described equivalently by a 4th-0rder elasticity tensor or two functions E(d) and K These functions represent Young’s modulus and a generalized bulk modulus as functions of the tensile direction d in a tension test. In the present paper three— and two—dimensional graphical representations of Young’s modulus and the generalized bulk modulus are given for single crystals belonging to one of the following symmetry groups: monoclinic, rhombic, trigonal, tetragonal, hemagonal, and cubic symmetry. 1 Introduction The generalized Hooke’s law is the geometrical and physical linear relation between stress and strain of anisotropic elastic solids. It is one of the oldest and best known constitutive relations in continuum mechanics. One dimensional formulations have been discussed first in the 17th century. Over a long time the scientific community agreed to differ about the most general form in linear elasticity. Finally Voigt (1850-1919) answered the open question how many constants have to be determined in the isotropic and anisotropic case. He proved by experiments Green’s (1793-1841) hypothesis that in the isotropic case two and in the general anisotropic hyperelastic case 21 constants have to be determined. Based on Hooke’s law structures are analyzed in all branches of mechanical and civil engineering. In most cases the isotropic version of Hooke’s law is used. But in the last decades more and more anisotropies have been taken into account, which are especially important if the component parts are laminated or made from single crystals.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This work is the accomplishment of both an individual and collective effort to find a path in the world of “nano ” and the meanders of interface theory. If one had to find the roots of this journey, I would probably cite two particular events. The first one would be the reading of an essay by Gleiter on nanocrystalline materials in Progress in Materials Science during my Masters study in France. I discovered a whole new world made of nanotubes and nanoribbons, a world ruled by abnormal behaviors. It seemed to me there were many interesting things to discover and issues to tackle. The second event occurred a few months earlier during an internship at Georgia Tech in the summer of 2000.

  • V “Type” Notation and Voigt Or Mandel Matrices
    T June 6, 2015 9:08 pm A F Tensors R a n n o n D c a B r R e b e c 1 n 2 Vm “type” notation and Voigt or Mandel matrices 3 4 This section defines a special “Vn ” tensor classification notation. Any tensor of type 5 m 6 n n n 7 Vm will be seen to have m components. Furthermore, any tensor of type Vm is also of 8 1 n 9 type VN where N= m . This latter identification helps us to convert indicial formulas 10 11 involving 3u 3 tensor matrices into matrix formulas involving 9u 1 arrays. Similarly, 12 13 indicial formulas involving 3 3 3 third-order tensor matrices may be alternatively cast 14 u u 15 in terms of 3 9 , 9 3 or even 27 1 arrays, depending on what is most convenient for 16 u u u 17 18 actual computations using linear algebra libraries in modern computing environments. 19 20 th st 21 Scalars are often called 0 -order tensors. Vectors are sometimes called 1 -order ten- 22 th n * 23 sors. In general, an n order engineering tensor has 3 components, and we say that 24 n 2 25 these tensors are of type V3 . For example, stress is a second-order tensor, so it has 3 26 27 (nine) components. Stress is symmetric, so these components are not all independent, but 28 29 that doesn’t change the fact that there are still nine components. 30 31 32 When solving a problem for which all tensors have symmetry with respect to some 2D 33 34 35 plane embedded in 3D space, it is conventional to set up the basis so that the third basis 36 37 vector points perpendicular to that plane.
