Summary

The quantum mechanics, in the world, is the reign of the quantification of , and of the probability of presence of particles with the famous wave ψ associated at the Schrodinger equation. The General relativity, is for it, reserved at the infinitely large world where the mater, the density 푇휇휈influence the curvature 퐺휇휈 of the at 4 and reciprocally. Finally, the strength of materials is the mechanic of objects at the human scale (beams, columns, plates, shells) used for the design of structures, without common measures with this two pillars of the of the cited earlier. We are going to show in first part of this paper that the results of the quantum mechanics (quantification of energy, shape of the wave function) are similar at the eigen frequencies and eigen modes of a beam. In second part, we will show on simples cases, that the concepts of curvature linked with energy density present in general relativity are equally at the bases of the fundamental equations of the and of the strength of material. We will demonstrate finally that the energy written for small non relativistic is an extension in 4 dimensions of stress tensor of the elasticity theory.

1st part) – Quantum mechanics and beam

1.1) Free vibration of a beam on two supports – natural frequencies and mode of vibration

We consider a beam on two supports, with a span L (m), carried out with a material of elastic modulus E (MPa), that have a section with an I (m4) and an area S (m²) and that have a by unit of length (m= S) in kg/m (cf. figure 1). [4]

The beam is in free vibration and as a deflection along the time 푦(푥,푡) :

푀, 퐸, 퐼

푦(푥,푡)

Figure 1 – Beam on 2 supports under its self-weight –

We can write:

휕²푦(푥,푡) 퐹 = 푚푎 = 푚 = 푚푦̈ (1) 휕푡² (푥,푡)

In addition, we have by connecting the radius of curvature R (m) at the 푀(푥,푡) :

2 1 휕 푦(푥,푡) 푀(푥,푡) = = (2) 푅 휕푥2 퐸퐼 Knowing that:

휕푀(푥,푡) = 푉 (3) 휕푥 (푥,푡)

휕푉(푥,푡) = −푞 (4) 휕푥 (푥,푡) We obtain by deriving twice respect to 푥 the equation (2):

2 4 2  1  푦(푥,푡)  푀(푥,푡) −푞(푥,푡) ( ) = = ( ) = (5) 푥² 푅 휕푥4 푥² 퐸퐼 퐸퐼 So:

4  푦(푥,푡) 퐸퐼 = −푞 (6) 휕푥4 (푥,푡) By equating equations (1) and (6) in the case of auto-vibration, we obtain the well-known which controls the self-vibration of a beam on 2 supports: 3

4 휕²푦(푥,푡)  푦(푥,푡) 푚 = −퐸퐼 (7) 휕푡² 휕푥4 So :

4  푦(푥,푡) 푚 휕²푦(푥,푡) + ( ) = 0 (8) 휕푥4 퐸퐼 휕푡²

If we put 푦(푥,푡) = 푞(푡)(푥) (9)

By replacing in equation (8) above, we obtains:

푖푉 퐸퐼푞(푡)(푥) + 푆푞̈(푡)휙(푥) = 0 (10)

We can therefore separate the variables:

퐼푉 푆 푞̈ = − × (11)  퐸퐼 푞

As this equation has to be verified for all 푥 or t, the above ration have to be constant.

We therefore define: 퐼푉 푆 푞̈ 훼4 = − × = (12)  퐸퐼 푞 퐿4

And we define the pulsation (circular natural frequency) ω thus:

훼4 퐸퐼 2 = × (13) 퐿4 푆

We can cut in two parts the differential equation (12) in two equations ():

훼4 퐼푉 −  = 0 (14) (푥) 퐿4 (푥)

2 푞̈(푡) +  푞(푡) = 0 (15)

The study of the first equation gives the following general equation: 푥 푥 푥 푥  = 퐴푠𝑖푛 (훼 ) + 퐵푐표푠 (훼 ) + 퐶푠𝑖푛ℎ (훼 ) + 퐷푐표푠ℎ (훼 ) (16) (푥) 퐿 퐿 퐿 퐿 And the successive derivative gives: 훼 푥 훼 푥 훼 푥 훼 푥 ′ = 퐴 푐표푠 (훼 ) − 퐵 푠𝑖푛 (훼 ) + 퐶 푐표푠ℎ (훼 ) + 퐷 푠𝑖푛ℎ (훼 ) (17) (푥) 퐿 퐿 퐿 퐿 퐿 퐿 퐿 퐿 훼2 푥 훼2 푥 훼2 푥 훼2 푥 ′′ = −퐴 푠𝑖푛 (훼 ) − 퐵 푐표푠 (훼 ) + 퐶 푠𝑖푛ℎ (훼 ) + 퐷 푐표푠ℎ (훼 ) (18) (푥) 퐿2 퐿 퐿2 퐿 퐿2 퐿 퐿2 퐿 훼3 푥 훼3 푥 훼3 푥 훼3 푥 ′′′ = −퐴 푐표푠 (훼 ) + 퐵 푠𝑖푛 (훼 ) + 퐶 푐표푠ℎ (훼 ) + 퐷 푠𝑖푛ℎ (훼 ) (19) (푥) 퐿3 퐿 퐿3 퐿 퐿3 퐿 퐿3 퐿 훼4 푥 훼4 푥 훼4 푥 훼4 푥 퐼푉 = 퐴 푠𝑖푛 (훼 ) + 퐵 푐표푠 (훼 ) + 퐶 푠𝑖푛ℎ (훼 ) + 퐷 푐표푠ℎ (훼 ) (20) (푥) 퐿4 퐿 퐿4 퐿 퐿4 퐿 퐿4 퐿 The 4 boundary conditions allows to write: 4

(푥=0) = 0퐴 + 퐵 + 0퐶 + 퐷 = 0 (22) 퐿 퐿 퐿 퐿  = 퐴푠𝑖푛 (훼 ) + 퐵푐표푠 (훼 ) + 퐶푠𝑖푛ℎ (훼 ) + 퐷푐표푠ℎ (훼 ) (23) (푥=퐿) 퐿 퐿 퐿 퐿

(푥=퐿) = 퐴푠𝑖푛(훼) + 퐵푐표푠(훼) + 퐶푠𝑖푛ℎ(훼) + 퐷푐표푠ℎ(훼) = 0 (24) 훼2 0 훼2 0 훼2 0 훼2 0 ′′ = −퐴 푠𝑖푛 (훼 ) − 퐵 푐표푠 (훼 ) + 퐶 푠𝑖푛ℎ (훼 ) + 퐷 푐표푠ℎ (훼 ) (25) (푥=0) 퐿2 퐿 퐿2 퐿 퐿2 퐿 퐿2 퐿

훼2 훼2 ′′ = 0퐴 − 퐵 + 0퐶 + 퐷 = 0 (26) (푥=0) 퐿2 퐿2 훼2 퐿 훼2 퐿 훼2 퐿 훼2 퐿 ′′ = −퐴 푠𝑖푛 (훼 ) − 퐵 푐표푠 (훼 ) + 퐶 푠𝑖푛ℎ (훼 ) + 퐷 푐표푠ℎ (훼 ) (27) (푥=퐿) 퐿2 퐿 퐿2 퐿 퐿2 퐿 퐿2 퐿

훼2 훼2 훼2 훼2 ′′ = −퐴 푠𝑖푛(훼) − 퐵 푐표푠(훼) + 퐶 푠𝑖푛ℎ(훼) + 퐷 푐표푠ℎ(훼) = 0 (28) (푥=퐿) 퐿2 퐿2 퐿2 퐿2 We can put these equations on the form of a : 0 퐵 0 퐷 퐴푠𝑖푛훼 퐵푐표푠훼 퐶푠𝑖푛ℎ훼 퐷푐표푠ℎ훼

훼² 훼² 0 −퐵 0 퐷 (29) 퐿² 퐿² 훼²푠𝑖푛훼 훼²푐표푠훼 훼²푠𝑖푛ℎ훼 훼²푐표푠ℎ훼 −퐴 −퐵 퐶 퐷 [ 퐿² 퐿² 퐿² 퐿² ] The determinant of this matrix have to be null.

We notice that from the equations (1) and (3) that B = D = 0 푥 푥 푥 푥  = 퐴푠𝑖푛 (훼 ) + 퐵푐표푠 (훼 ) + 퐶푠𝑖푛ℎ (훼 ) + 퐷푐표푠ℎ (훼 ) (30) (푥) 퐿 퐿 퐿 퐿 푥 푥  = 퐴푠𝑖푛 (훼 ) + 퐶푠𝑖푛ℎ (훼 ) (31) (푥) 퐿 퐿

푆 푞̈ 훼4 And we have: − × = (32) 퐸퐼 푞 퐿4 The two equations (2) and (4) gives:

(푥=퐿) = 퐴푠𝑖푛(훼) + 퐶푠𝑖푛ℎ(훼) = 0 (33)

훼2 훼2 ′′ = −퐴 푠𝑖푛(훼) + 퐶 푠𝑖푛ℎ(훼) = 0 (34) (푥=퐿) 퐿2 퐿2 5

So:

(푥=퐿) = 퐴푠𝑖푛(훼) + 퐶푠𝑖푛ℎ(훼) = 0 (35)

′′(푥=퐿) = −퐴푠𝑖푛(훼) + 퐶푠𝑖푛ℎ(훼) = 0 (36)

The sum of these two equations gives:

2퐶푠𝑖푛ℎ(훼) = 0 => 훼 = 0 표푢 퐶 = 0 (37)

The subtraction of these two equations gives:

2퐴푠𝑖푛(훼) = 0 => 훼 = 푛 And so C = 0 (38)

Is the Eigen value of the system.

We obtain the following equation of the Eigen mode: 푛푥  = 퐴푠𝑖푛 ( ) (39) (푥) 퐿 That we write in function of n (quantification):

The Eigen mode is so written: 푛푥  = 퐴 푠𝑖푛 ( ) (40) 푛(푥) 푛 퐿 The norm of the Eigen mode is so written:

퐿 퐿 푛푥 2( ) 2 퐿 ∫ 푛(푥) 푛(푥) = ∫ 퐴푛푠𝑖푛 푑푥 (41) 0 0

1 We replace du sin²(ax) by (1 − cos (2푎푥)) (42) 2 퐿 퐿 2 1 2푛푥 ∫ 푛(푥) 푛(푥) = 퐴푛 ∫ (1 − 푐표푠 ( )) 푑푥 (43) 0 0 2 퐿 2푛푥 We define 푢 = 퐿 2푛 푑푢 = 푑푥 퐿 퐿 푑푥 = 푑푢 2푛 퐿 퐿 퐿 2 1 2 1 퐿 ∫ 푛(푥) 푛(푥) = 퐴푛 ∫ 푑푥 + 퐴푛 ∫ 푐표푠푢 푑푢 (44) 0 0 2 2 0 2푛 The antiderivative of cosu is sinu :

퐿 퐿 2 푥 퐿 2푛푥 퐿 퐴푛퐿 ∫  (푥)  (푥) = 퐴2 [( − 푠𝑖푛 ( ))] = 퐴2 ( − 0 − (0 − 0)) = (45) 푛 푛 푛 2 4푛 퐿 푛 2 2 0 0

2 We note that if we chose퐴 = √ (46)) the modes  (푥) would form an orthonormal for the 푛 퐿 푛 canonical scalar product. In the case of normed Eigen vector we have so: 6

2 푛푥  = √ 푠𝑖푛 ( ) (47) 푛(푥) 퐿 퐿

We have to study the second equation now :

2 푞̈(푡) +  푞(푡) = 0

We fix 푞(푡)as following:

푞(푡) = 푎푐표푠푡 + 푏푠𝑖푛푡

푞̇(푡) = −푎푠𝑖푛푡 + 푏푐표푠푡

2 푞̈(푡) = −푎²푐표푠푡 − 푏 푠𝑖푛푡

At the time t = 0, the system is in static, and so the is null:

푞̇(푡=0) = −푎푠𝑖푛0 + 푏푐표푠0

That imply b = 0:

And so the final deflection of the beam is:

푦(푥,푡) = 푞(푡)(푥) (9)

2 푛푥 푦 = 푎√ 푠𝑖푛 ( ) cos(휔푡) (9푏𝑖푠) 푛(푥,푡) 퐿 퐿

Note

We find this result by writing that the determinant of the matrix of the components must be zero.

With α = n (49)

푛44 퐸퐼 푛²² 퐸퐼 2 = × (50) =>  = √ (51) 퐿4 푆 퐿² 푆

With these equations, we can define the different Eigen mode of vibration of the beam (cf. figure 2).

² 퐸퐼 1 = √ 퐿² 푆

1.2) Particle in a potential well with an infinite

We consider a particle in a potential well as defined below (cf. figure 3).

0

Figure 3 – Particle in movement in a potential well –

The Schrodinger equation independent of the time can be written as following: 2 2 ħ 휕 (푥) ( ) + 퐸  = 0 (52) 2푚 휕푥2 푚 (푥) 8

This equation can be also written on the form curvature = k energy 2 푑 (푥) 2푚 = − (  ) 퐸 (52 푏𝑖푠) 푑푥2 ħ2 (푥) 푚

The dimensional equation is so the following: 1 푘𝑔 푘𝑔푚² = 2 × 푚² 푘𝑔푚²푠 푠² ( ) 푠² 1 푠² 푘𝑔푚² = × 푚² 푘𝑔푚4 푠² 1 푠² 푈 = × 푚² 푘𝑔푚 푚3

The boundary conditions are therefore the following: The particle is present in the potential well: The particle is not present in the potential well: 0 ≤ 푥 ≤ 퐿 푥 < 0 ou 푥 > 퐿 2 2 ħ 휕 (푥) ( ) + 퐸  = 0  = 0 2푚 휕푥2 푚 (푥) (푥) The particle follows the Schrodinger equation there is no particle

Otherwise, (푥) is a continuous function. The consequence is so: (0) = (퐿) = 0

So: 2 푑 (푥) + 푘2 = 0 (53) 푑푥2 (푥) With: 2푚퐸푚 푘2 = (54) ħ2

The solution of the wave function for this differential equation is of the following shape:

(푥) = 퐴푠𝑖푛(푘푥) + 퐵푐표푠(푘푥) (55)

We suppose that the energy Em is positive.

By use of the boundary condition we can find the constant A and B:

In 푥 = 0, (0) = 0 : That this imply that 퐵 = 0

(푥) = 퐴푠𝑖푛(푘푥)

In 푥 = 퐿, (퐿) = 0 :

(퐿) = 퐴푠𝑖푛(푘퐿) = 0

It is so necessary that with A and k different from 0 that 푘퐿 = 푛 That imply that: 푛 푘 = (56) 퐿 With n an integer =1,2,3……

As we have posed: 9

2푚퐸푚 푘2 = ħ2 The result is : 2 2 2푚퐸푚 푛  푘2 = = (57) ħ2 퐿2

We finally obtain the quantified values of the energy: 푛22ħ2 퐸 = (58) 푚,푛 2푚퐿2 With n = 1,2,3,…

So, the Eigen values of the energy are quantified.

We can finally write the expression of the wave function: 푛푥  = 퐴푠𝑖푛 ( 푥) (푥) 퐿 We are looking for now the value of the constant A:

As the particle has to be somewhere in the quantum well 2 The function ‖(푥)‖ = 1 to satisfy the density of probability (the particle must be somewhere in the box between 0 and L). 퐿 2 ∫ ‖(푥)‖ 푑푥 = 1 (59) 0 퐿 푛푥 퐴2 퐿 2푛푥 퐴2 퐿 2푛푥 퐿 ∫ 퐴2푠𝑖푛² ( ) 푑푥 = ∫ {1 − 푐표푠 ( )} 푑푥 = [푥 − 푠𝑖푛 ( )] 0 퐿 2 0 퐿 2 2푛 퐿 0 퐴2 퐿 2푛퐿 퐴2퐿 = (퐿 − 푠𝑖푛 ( )) = = 1 2 2푛 퐿 2 2 So 퐴 = √ (60) 퐿

And the solution of the problem in the quantum well, the wave function, is so:

2 푛푥  = √ 푠𝑖푛 ( 푥) (61) (푥) 퐿 퐿 Wave function probability to be present

2 푛푥 2 2 푛푥  = √ 푠𝑖푛 ( 푥) ‖ ‖ = 푠𝑖푛² ( 푥) (62) (푥) 퐿 퐿 (푥) 퐿 퐿

Not about the Energy: ℎ By the following classic notation:퐸 = ℎ푣 = 푇 2 And with 푇 =  ℎ 퐸 = = ħ 2 푛²² ħ2 ħ = ( ) 퐿² 2m

푛²² ħ  = ( ) (63) 퐿² 2m 10

1.3 Conclusion of this first part

Table 1 below shows the perfect analogy between the of a beam on two supports (resulting from the strength of the materials) and the quantification of the energy of a particle in a quantum well (derived from quantum mechanics).

2nd part) Relation between curvature and energy in 1 and 2 dimensions (beam and slab in strength of materials) and in 4 dimensions (General relativity)

2.1) Case of the beam on two simple supports Considering the same beam as that defined in figure 1.

The fundamental relation connecting the curvature (1/R) at the bending moment 푀(푥)and at the second derivative of the deflection 푦(푥) writes:

2 푑 푦 푀(푥) 1 = − = (64) 푑푥2 퐸퐼 푅

In this expression, 푦(푥) is the deflection of the beam (m), 푀(푥) the bending moment (N.m), E the young modulus of the material that constitute the beam (N/m²), I the inertia in(m4) and R the curvature radius in (m). 11

The exact expression of the curvature is given in the expression (65). The part in cube root is negligible.

푑²푦 1 = 푑푥² (65) 푅 3 푑푦 2 (√1 + ( ) ) 푑푥

In addition the elastic bending energy of a beam can be written as:

퐿 2 1 푀(푥) 푈 = ∫ 푑푥 (66) 2 0 퐸퐼 Considering to simplify a beam under a constant bending moment M at each extremity (cf. figure 4).

R 푀, 퐸, 퐼 푥 M 푦(푥,푡) M

푦 Figure 4 – Beam on two supports under a bending moment M at each extremity –

The bending moment equation (pure bending) is the following:

푀(푥) = 푀 (67)

From the equation (64) w obtain:

푑2푦 푀 1 = − = (68) 푑푥2 퐸퐼 푅 퐸퐼 푀 = 푀 = − (69) (푥) 푅 By introducing the expression (69) in the expression of bending energy (66):

1 퐿 (퐸퐼)2 1 퐿 퐸퐼 푈 = ∫ 2 푑푥 = ∫ 2 푑푥 2 0 푅 퐸퐼 2 0 푅 With the curvature that is constant, we obtain: 1 퐸퐼퐿 푈 = 2 푅2 So in pure bending: 1 2 푈 = ( ) (70) 푅2 퐸퐼 퐿 12

We obtain thus a relation between the curvature and the strain energy of a beam

Note: By integral two from 푥 the expression (68) and considering that the deflection have to be null on each support, we obtain the expression of the deflection.

2.2) Case of a thin plate of thickness h Considering a thin plane h, of sides 푥 et 푦 sunder a bending moments Mx (cf. figure 5) :

푀 푥 푦

푀 푥 푥

Figure 5 – Plate under a bending moment on its sides –

푀푥 Represent a bending moment by unit of length:

Under the bending moment, the plate is in bending and takes a curvature of radius R as indicated at the figure 6 below:

:

θ R

푑푠 ≈ 푥 Figure 6 – Relation between the radius of curvature R of the plate and each mean fiber –

We have following the figure 6: 푅푥휃 = 푑푠 ≈ 푥 (73) And we have a relation connecting the curvature 1/R and the defection w of the plate:

2 1 휕 푤(푥,푦) = 2 (74) 푅푥 휕푥 13

By introducing the expression (74) in the expression (73) we obtain:

2 푥 휕 푤(푥,푦) 휃 = = − 2 푥 (75) 푅푥 휕푥 The elastic bending energy of the plate can be written so: 1 푈 = 푀 푦휃 (76) 2 푥 2 1 휕 푤(푥,푦) 푈 = − 푀 푥푦 (77) 푥 2 푥 휕푥2 The contribution of energy following 푦 can be written following the same approach if a bending 푀푦 is now applied on the side 푥 :

2 1 휕 푤(푥,푦) 푈 = − 푀 푥푦 (78) 푦 2 푦 휕푦2

The contribution due at the torsion can be also written:

2 1 휕 푤(푥,푦) 푈 = 2푀 푥푦 (79) 푥푦 2 푥푦 휕푦휕푥

Finally the strain energy of the plate can be defined:

푈 = 푈푥 + 푈푦 + 푈푥푦 (80)

2 2 2 1 휕 푤(푥,푦) 1 휕 푤(푥,푦) 1 휕 푤(푥,푦) 푈 = − 푀 푥푦 − 푀 푥푦 + 2푀 푥푦 (81) 2 푥 휕푥2 2 푦 휕푦2 2 푥푦 휕푦휕푥 So :

2 2 2 1 휕 푤(푥,푦) 휕 푤(푥,푦) 휕 푤(푥,푦) 푈 = [−푀 + 2푀 − 푀 ] 푥푦 (82) 2 푥 휕푥2 푥푦 휕푦휕푥 푦 휕푦2

By using the well-known relation connecting the bending moment at the second derivative of the deflection:

2 2 2 2 휕 푤(푥,푦) 휕 푤(푥,푦) 휕 푤(푥,푦) 휕 푤(푥,푦) 푀 = −퐷 ( + 푣 ) (83) , 푀 = −퐷 ( + 푣 ) (84) 푥 휕푥2 휕푦2 푦 휕푦2 휕푥2

1 1 1 1 푀푥 = 퐷 ( + 푣 ) (85), 푀푦 = 퐷 ( + 푣 ) (86) 푅푥 푅푦 푅푦 푅푥

2 휕 푤(푥,푦) 푀 = 퐷(1 − 푣) (87) 푥푦 휕푥휕푦

And by reporting these expressions into (82) we obtain:

We obtain a relation between the curvature and the density of strain energy of the plate:

Note:

The expression below allow to reformulate and to simplify the expression (89):

2 2 2 휕2푤 휕2푤 휕2푤 휕2푤 휕2푤 휕2푤 휕2푤 휕2푤 휕2푤 −2(1 − 푣) [ − ( ) ] = −2 + 2 ( ) + 2푣 − 2푣 ( ) (91) 휕푥2 휕푦2 휕푥휕푦 휕푥2 휕푦2 휕푥휕푦 휕푥2 휕푦2 휕푥휕푦

The sum of the two expressions (91) et (92) above gives again the expression (89) :

2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 휕 푤(푥,푦) 휕 푤(푥,푦) 휕 푤 휕 푤 휕 푤 휕 푤 휕 푤 휕 푤 휕 푤 휕 푤 ( ) + ( ) + 2 − 2 + 2 ( ) + 2푣 − 2푣 ( ) 휕푥2 휕푦2 휕푥2 휕푦2 휕푥2 휕푦2 휕푥휕푦 휕푥2 휕푦2 휕푥휕푦

Therefore the expression (89) can be written from the two expression (91) and (92):

2 2 2 2 2 2 2 퐷 휕 푤(푥,푦) 휕 푤(푥,푦) 휕 푤 휕 푤 휕 푤 푈 = [( + ) − 2(1 − 푣) [ − ( ) ]] 푥푦 (93) 2 휕푥2 휕푦2 휕푥2 휕푦2 휕푥휕푦

With for the bending rigidity D:

퐸ℎ3 퐷 = (94) 12(1 − 푣²)

퐷 1 1 2 1 1 1 2 푈 = [(− − ) − 2(1 − 푣) [ − ( ) ]] 푥푦 (95) 2 푅푥 푅푦 푅푥 푅푦 푅푥푦

If we present the expression to put in first plane the curvature in one side and the energy of the other side:

1 1 2 1 1 1 2 2 푈 [(− − ) − 2(1 − 푣) [ − ( ) ]] = ( ) (96) 푅푥 푅푦 푅푥 푅푦 푅푥푦 퐷 푥푦 15

We are developing now this expression in the case of the pure flexion:

The radius of curvature are all equal. The radius of curvature due to the torsion is null.

휕2푤 1 1 1 = 0, = = (97) 휕푥휕푦 푅푥 푅푦 푅 By introducing these expressions in the equation (96) we obtain:

퐷 2 2 1 푈 = [(− ) − 2(1 − 푣) [ ]] 푥푦 2 푅 푅2

1 1 푈 = (98) 푅2 퐷(1 + 푣) 푥푦

If we take into account of the bending rigidity (94) and if we define fix 푥. 푦 = 퐴

2.3) Case of the General relativity

2.3.1) Expression Einstein Equation

The Einstein equation has to be written as following:

퐺휇푣 = 휅푇휇푣 (100)

In this equation, the curvature and the energy of the space time are linked (cf. figure 7).

Figure 7 – Symbolic view of the curvature of the space time by projection in a plane space –

With:

퐺휇푣 is the . 8휋퐺 휅 = (101) 푐4 In addition the dimensional equation of κ is the following:

The Ricci tensor is obtained by contraction of the Riemann tensor on the indices λ:

 푅휇푣 = 푅휇푣

R is a contraction of the tensor 푅휇푣 . The curvature tensor or Riemann tensor is written as following:

       푅 휇푣훼 = 훤휇훼,푣 − 훤휇푣,훼 + 훤푣훤휇훼 − 훤훼훤휇푣 (104) 17

Or in another way:

  휕훤휇훼 휕훤휇푣 푅 = − + 훤 훤 − 훤 훤 (104 푏𝑖푠) 휇푣훼 휕푥푣 휕푥훼 푣 휇훼 훼 휇푣 By definition the definition of the is the following:

1 1 휕𝑔휇 휕𝑔푣 휕𝑔휇푣 훤 = 𝑔(𝑔 + 𝑔 − 𝑔 ) = 𝑔 ( + − ) (105) 휇푣 2 휇,푣 푣,휇 휇푣, 2 휕푥푣 휕푥휇 휕푥 gμν is the metric,

The coefficient of the metric are issued of the differential distance ():

푑푠2 = 푐2푑푡2 − 푑푥2 − 푑푦2 − 푑푧2 (106)

So, considering the Einstein convention of summation:

2 휇 푣 푑푠 = 𝑔휇푣푑푥 푑푥 (107)

휕휉훼 휕휉훽 𝑔 =  (108) 휇푣 휇푣 휕푥휇 휕푥푣

휉0 = 푐푡; 휉1 = 푥; 휉2 = 푦; 휉3 = 푧 (109)

1 −0 −0 −0 0 −1 −  = [ 0 −0] (110) 휇푣 0 −0 −1 −0 0 −0 −0 −1

Λ is the cosmologic constant (possible candidate to explain the dark energy and dark matter)

 The  are the first derivative of the metric gμν :

For example in coordinates (t,r,θ,φ) :

푡 푟 휃 휑 휕훤 휕훤푟푟 휕훤 휕훤푟휑 훤 = 훤푡 + 훤푟 + 훤휃 + 훤휑 = 푟푡 + + 푟휃 + (111) 푟,푟 푟푡,푟 푟푟,푟 푟휃,푟 푟휑,푟 휕푟 휕푟 휕푟 휕푟  So the 훤푟,푟 are the second derivatives of the metrics 𝑔휇푣 that we can by analogy compare in one and two dimensions with the expressions of curvatures given in the expression (70) , (90), (96) and (99).

So 퐺휇푣 has the dimensional value of a curvature in 1/m²

 For example the first terms 푅 휇푣훼 (see 104 bis)

1 휕𝑔휇 휕𝑔푣 휕𝑔휇푣  휕 { 𝑔 ( + − )} 휕훤휇훼 2 휕푥푣 휕푥휇 휕푥 = 휕푥푣 휕푥푣 18

2.3.3) Detail on the stress energy tensor

We have showing below that the component of the stress energy tensor 푇휇휈 have the dimension of an energy density G = 6.6726x10-11 m3kg-1s-2 1J = 1W.s = 1 N.m = 1kg.m².s-2 kg

The stress energy tensor is a matrix where the component are given below (113):

The factor of Lorentz becomes from the Lorentz transformation that imply that the speed of light stay constant in all the referential. 1 1 훾 = = (114) 푣2 √1 − 훽2 √1 − 푐2 We show that at low (in a non-relativistic situation) and in 3 dimensions, this tensor with 16 components in four-dimensional space-time actually includes the stress tensor (9 components) of the continuum mechanics from which derive the strength of materials [11].

The stress tensor in two dimensions can be written as following:

휎푥푥 푥푦 휎 = [ ] (115) 푖푗 푥푦 휎푦푦

And in 3 dimensions:

휎푥푥 휏푥푦 휏푥푧 휏 휎 휏 휎푖푗 = [ 푦푥 푦푦 푦푧] (116) 휏푧푥 휏푧푦 휎푧푧

In theory of elasticity, that come from the continuum mechanics, the relation between the stress tensor 휎푖푗 and the applied Qi on a surface of normal nj can be written as following:

푄푖 = 휎푖푗푛푗 (117)

In a of a variational approach, the stress tensor can be written as follow: 19

훥푄푖 휎푖푗 = 푤𝑖푡ℎ 훥푛푗 → 0 (118) 훥푛푗

So, with m the mass, ρ the density of mass energy, V the volume and ai the , we have:

훥푄푖 훥(푚 × 푎푖) 훥(휌. 푉. 푎푖) 휎푖푗 = = = (119) 훥푛푗 훥푛푗 훥푛푗

If we make the hypothesis that the variation of the force is due only to the variation of the Volume V in function of the time t we obtain with: 푣 푎 = 푖 (120) 푖 훥푡

훥(휌. 푉. 푎푖) 1 훥푉 휎푖푗 = = 휌 ( ) 푣푖 (121) 훥푛푗 훥푛푗 훥푡 We can of course define the volume V:

푉 = 훥푥푖. 훥푥푗. 훥푥푘 (122)

Thus we obtain:

1 훥푥푖. 훥푥푗. 훥푥푘 휎푖푗 = 휌 ( ) 푣푖 (123) 훥푛푗 훥푡

We can replace the nj by its value:

푛푗 = 훥푥푖. 훥푥푘 (124)

푣푖 훥푥푖. 훥푥푗. 훥푥푘 휎푖푗 = 휌 ( ) (125) 훥푡 훥푥푖. 훥푥푘 After simplification we obtain:

훥푥푗 휎 = 휌푣 ( ) (126) 푖푗 푖 훥푡 By definition of a speed, we have:

훥푥푗 푣 = ( ) (127) 푗 훥푡 We obtain finally the expression of the stress tensor at low speed in function of the energy density ρ and based on the multiplication of the velocity vi and vj:

휎푖푗 = 휌푣푖푣푗 (128)

The stress energy tensor becomes from the product of the density of energy and the multiplication of the four velocity (4 dimension of the space time) issued from the general relativity.

푇휇푣 = 휌푢휇푢푣 (129)

With for the four velocity: 20

2.4) Conclusion of this second part

The table 2 below makes a synthesis of the results obtained. We can see that the general relativity is a generalization of the elastic theory in 4 dimensions of the space time.

Conclusions

We have showed on several examples that the strength of materials allows to understand at our scale certain fundamental principles of the quantum mechanics:

- The eigen mode of a beam on two simple supports correspond at the different shape of the wave function connected with the jump energy of a particle in a quantum well, - The natural circular frequencies of a beam on two simple supports correspond at the quantification of the energy of a particle in a potential well.

We have showed that the general relativity is a generalization in 4 dimensions (space time) of the relation curvature/energy equally present in strength of materials for the beam and for the thin plates

Finally, we have showed the stress energy tensor written at low speed give the stress tensor of the elasticity theory.

Extension of this article, next steps:

We have equally shown that in strength of material 2 main equations are necessary. One in static (curvature = K energy density) and one in dynamic (natural frequencies and eigen modes). So if the analogy between the beam (or plate) in strength of material and the space time is total; two equations should be also necessary at large scale. The first is the Einstein Equation connecting the curvature and the energy. The second remain to find.

If the analogy with the strength of the materials is exact we have some clues about this second equation.

This second equation would allow to quantify the space time (analogy with the natural frequency and eigen mode of the beam that represent also the energy quantification and shape of the wave function ψ in quantum mechanics).see table 3 in annex A.

Notice that this equation should be in 4th derivative of the space metric and 2th derivative of the time metric, and of course tensorial written to be valid in all the referential ().
