Sun, Xiangkun. "Elastic wave propagation in periodic structures through numerical and analytical homogenization techniques." Thesis, Lyon, 2016. http://www.theses.fr/2016LYSEC041/document.
Full textIn this work, the multi-scale homogenization method, as well as various non homogenization methods, will be presented to study the dynamic behaviour of periodic structures. The multi-scale method starts with the scale-separation, which indicates a micro-scale to describe the local behaviour and a macro-scale to describe the global behaviour. According to the homogenization theory, the long-wave assumption is used, and the unit cell length should be much smaller than the characteristic length of the structure. Thus, the valid frequency range of homogenization is limited to the first propagating zone. The traditional homogenization model makes use of material properties mean values, but the practical validity range is far less than the first Bragg band gap. This deficiency motivated the development of new enriched homogenized models. Compared to traditional homogenization model, higher order homogenized wave equations are proposed to provide more accuracy homogenized models. Two multi-scale methods are introduced: the asymptotic expansion method, and the homogenization of periodic discrete media method (HPDM). These methods will be applied sequentially in longitudinal wave cases in bi-periodic rods and flexural wave cases in bi-periodic beams. Same higher order models are obtained by the two methods in both cases. Then, the proposed models are validated by investigating the dispersion relation and the frequency response function. Analytical solutions and wave finite element method (WFEM) are used as references. Parametric studies are carried out in the infinite case while two different boundary conditions are considered in the finite case. Afterwards, the HPDM and the CWFEM are employed to study the longitudinal and transverse vibrations of framed structures in 1D case and 2D case. The valid frequency range of the HPDM is re-evaluated using the wave propagation feature identified by the CWFEM. The relative error of the wavenumber by HPDM compared to CWFEM is illustrated in the function of frequency and scale ratio. Parametric studies on the thickness of the structure is carried out through the dispersion relation. The dynamics of finite structures are also investigated using the HPDM and CWFEM

O nível de qualidade de peças produzidas a partir de grandes lingotes está intimamente relacionado à qualidade dos lingotes em si. Dentre os diversos defeitos inerentes ao processo de solidificação, destacam-se as microssegregações de elementos de liga, que causam uma deterioração nas propriedades do produto final. Uma maneira de reduzir o dano causado pela microssegregação é através do Tratamento Térmico de Homogeneização, este por sua vez demanda elevados tempos de processo, elevando custos e tempos de fabricação. Uma das formas de reduzir os tempos de homogeneização, uma vez que este apresenta caráter difusional, é através da redução do espaçamento interdendrítico. Neste trabalho foi analisada a influência da deformação plástica como forma de reduzir o espaçamento entre dendritas no tratamento térmico de homogeneização. Para tal fim, utilizou-se um lingote fundido em aço ferramenta de composição química similar ao AISI A2. As amostras foram retiradas do núcleo do lingote no estado bruto de solidificação e sofreram deformações de 0,6 e 1,3 através do processo de laminação a quente, sendo temperadas em água na sequência. Após laminadas as amostras passaram por um tratamento térmico de homogeneização na temperatura de 1200°C por 8h ou 16h e foram novamente temperadas em água. As análises foram feitas através de Microscopia Óptica, Dureza Vickers, Difratometria de Raios-X e Microscopia Eletrônica de Varredura. Foi observado em todas as amostras a presença de microrechupes, e uma microestrutura composta predominantemente por dendritas oriundas da solidificação, identificadas pela fase martensítica, envoltas por uma matriz formada de austenita retida, contendo carbonetos e sulfetos. Com a deformação plástica foi possível quebrar a estrutura dendrítica a aproximar as regiões segregadas das não segregadas. O tratamento térmico por um tempo de 8h não foi suficiente para homogeneizar a microestrutura e reduzir as microssegregações, independentemente do estado de deformação das amostras. O tratamento térmico por 16h apresentou os melhores resultados em relação à homogeneidade química, sendo tanto melhor o resultado quanto maior a deformação imposta às amostras.
The quality of pieces produced from large ingots is closely related to the quality of ingots itself. Among the various defects inherent to the solidification process, there is the microsegregation of alloying elements, causing a deterioration in the properties of the final product. One way to reduce the damage caused by microsegregation is through the homogenization heat treatment, this in turn demands long time of process, increasing costs and lead-times for manufacture. One way to reduce the homogenization time, since it has a diffusive character, is by reducing the interdendritic spacing. In this study was analyzed the influence of plastic deformation as a mean to reduce the spacing between dendrites in the homogenization heat treatment. For this purpose it was used a cast ingot of chemical composition similar to the AISI A2 tool steel. Samples were cut from the ingot center in the as-cast state and suffered deformations of 0.6 and 1.3 through the hot rolling process and quenched in water in the sequence. After rolling the samples passed through a homogenization heat treatment at a temperature of 1200°C for 8h and 16h and again were quenched in water. Analyses were performed by Optical Microscopy, Vickers Hardness, X-Ray Diffractometry and Scanning Electron Microscopy. It was observed in all samples the presence of microcavities, and a microstructure consisting predominantly by solidifications dendrites identified by a martensitic phase, involved by a retained austenite matrix containing carbides and sulfides. The plastic deformation broke the dendritic structure, and approached the segregated regions to the non-segregated regions. The heat treatment for 8h was not sufficient to homogenize the microstructure and reduce the microsegregation, independently of the deformation state of the samples. The heat treatment for 16h presented the best results in relation to the chemical homogeneity, and the better the result as the greater the deformation imposed on the samples.

Full textIn the past decades there has been an impressive progress in the development of new materials for mechanical related applications. New generations of composites have been developed, that can offer advantages over the unidirectional fibre-reinforced mats commonly used then materials take the name of woven fabrics. The behaviour of this material is strongly influenced by the micro-structure of the material. In the thesis mechanical models and a numerical scheme able to model the mechanical behaviour of woven fabrics and general network materials have been developed. The model takes in to account the micro-structure by means of a homogenization technique. The fibres in the network have been treated like microbeams, having both extensional and bending stiffness, with different types of connection, according to the pattern and detail of the network. The developed procedure was applied for obtaining the homogenized mechanical models for some types of biaxial and quadriaxial networks of fibres, simulating either fibre nets (in this case rigid connection were assumed among the fibres) or tissues with negligible interaction between the fibre bundles, and with relative sliding prevented (in this case the connections were simulated by means of pivots). Different geometries were analysed, including the cases in which the fibres are not orthogonal. A first gradient medium is usually obtained but, in some cases, the homogenization procedure itself indicates that a higher order continuum is better fit to represent the deformation of the micro-structure. Special results were obtained for the case of fibres connected by pivots. In this cases an orthotropic material with zero shear modulus was obtained. Such a material has a not elliptic constitutive tensor, thus it can lead to strain concentrations. However, it was shown that some considerations about the physical behaviour of such networks indicated that higher order terms had to be included in the expansion of the internal forces and deformations, so that a strain gradient material was obtained. The results obtained can be used for the design of specific materials requiring ad-hoc properties. Although the reference model is a network material, the results obtained can be applied to other similar kinds of microstructures, like pantographic materials, micro devices composed by microbeams etc. They have been limited at the range of linear elasticity, that is small deformation and linear elastic behaviour. Then, numerical simulations were focused on extension tests and bias tests. The obtained deformed configurations are consistent with the literature experimental tests, both for balanced and unbalanced tissues. Moreover, a comparison between first and second gradient numerical predictions was performed. It was observed that second gradient predictions better simulate the experimental evidences

Full textThe bone is a heterogeneous solid with a highly complex structure that requires a multiple scale type of analysis. To analyze the electromechanical behavior of the bone structure, methods of classical mechanics, finite element methods, and methods of homogenization are being used. This analysis describes mathematically the relationship between the electromechanical behavior of the bone structure and its effective, or, global, properties. Thus, many efforts have been spent to develop rigorous analytical models capable of predicting the global and local effective properties of bone structures. The purpose of this work is to study the Asymptotic Homogenization Method (AHM) in order to determine the electromechanical effective properties of heterogeneous structures, such as the bone structure. The analysis of heat conduction and elastic problem using AHM shows that these problems are related to each other. Furthermore, an application of the AHM in cortical bone is presented and the results are shown to be in very good agreement with results found in the literature. Finally, this work shows great promise in the application of the AHM to determine the effective properties of a bone structure whose constituent material belongs to the crystal class 622.

Full textThe accurate prediction of the long and short-term behaviour of concrete structures in the nuclear domain is essential to ensure optimal performances (integrity, containment roperties) during their service life. In the particular case of massive concrete structures, at early age the heat produced by hydration reactions cannot be evacuated fast enough so that high temperatures may be reached and the resulting gradients of temperature might lead to cracking according to the external and internal restraints to which the structures are subjected. The goals of this study are (1) to perform numerical simulations in order to describe and predict the thermo-chemo-mechanical behaviour at early-age of a massive concrete structure devoted to nuclear waste disposal on surface, and (2) to develop and apply upscaling tools to estimate rigorously the key properties of concrete needed in an early-age analysis from the composition of the material. Firstly, a chemo-thermal analysis aims at determining the influence of convection, solar radiation, reradiation and hydration heat on the thermal response of the structure. Practical recommendations regarding concreting temperatures are provided in order to limit the maximum temperature reached within the structure. Then, by means of a mechanical analysis, simplified and more complex (i.e. accounting for coupled creep and damage) modelling strategies are used to assess scenarios involving different boundary conditions defined from the previous chemo-thermal analysis. Secondly, a study accounting for the multiscale character of concrete is performed. A simplified model of cement hydration kinetics is proposed. The evolution of the different phases at the cement paste level can be estimated. Then, analytical and numerical tools to upscale the ageing properties are presented and applied to estimate the mechanical and thermal properties of cementbased materials. Finally, the input data used in the structural analysis are compared with the estimations obtained in the multiscale analysis. To conclude, the entire strategy proposed in this thesis aims at predicting the behaviour of massive concrete structures from the composition of the concrete by means of a sequenced approach: concrete behaviour is estimated using the upscaling tools, providing then the input data to the phenomenological analysis at the structure level

Full textVibration of tubes arrays is a matter of safety assessments of nuclear reactor cores or steam generators. Such systems count up thousands of slender-bodies immersed in viscous flow, involving multi-physics mechanisms caused by nonlinear dynamic interactions between the fluid and the solid materials. Direct numerical simulations for predicting these phenomena could derive from continuum mechanics, but require expensive computing resources. Therefore, one alternative to the costly micro-scale simulations consists in describing the interstitial fluid dynamics at the same scale as the structures one. Such approach rely on homogenization techniques intended to model mechanics of multi-phase systems. Homogenization results in coupled governing equations for the fluid and solid dynamics, whose solution provides individual tubes displacements and average fluid fields for each periodic unit cell. An hydrodynamic force term arises from the formulation within this set of homogenized equations: it depends on the micro-scale flow in the vicinity of a given tube-wall, but needs to be estimated as a function of the macro-scale fields in order to close the homogenized problem. The fluid force estimation relies on numerical micro-scale solutions of fluid-solid interactions over a tube array of small size. The multi-scale model is assessed for arrays made up of hundreds tubes, and is compared with solutions coming from the numerical micro-scale simulations. The macro-scale solution reproduces with good agreement the averaged solution of the micro-scale simulation, indicating that the homogenization method and the hydrodynamic force closure are suitable for such tube array configurations

Full textA discrete dynamic approach (DDM) is developed in the context of beam mechanics to calculate the dispersion characteristics of periodic structures. Subsequently, based on this dynamical beam formulation, we calculate the dispersion characteristics of one-dimensional and two-dimensional periodic media. A sufficiently high order development of the forces and moments of the structural elements is necessary to accurately describe the propagation modes of higher order. These results show that the calculations of the dispersion characteristics of structural systems can be approached with good accuracy by the dynamics of the discrete elements. Besides, non-classical behaviors can be captured not only by higher order expansion but also by higher gradient formulations. To that scope, we develop a higher gradient dynamic homogenization method with micro-inertia effects. Using this formulation, we compute the macroscopic constitutive parameters up to the second gradient, using two distinct approaches, namely Hamilton’s principle and a total internal energy formulation. We analyze the sensitivity of the second gradient constitutive terms on the inner material and geometric parameters for the case of composite materials made of a periodic, layered microstructure. Moreover, we show that the formulations based on the total internal energy taking into account higher order gradient terms give the best description of wave propagation through the composite. We analyze the higher order and micro-inertia contributions on the mechanical behavior of composite structures by calculating the effective static and dynamic properties of composite beams using a higher order dynamic homogenization method. We compute the effective longitudinal static response with higher order gradient, by quantifying the relative difference compared to the classical formulation of Cauchy type, which is based on the first gradient of displacement. We then analyze the propagation properties of longitudinal waves in terms of the natural frequency of composite structural elements, taking into account the contribution of micro-inertia. The internal length plays a crucial role in the contributions of micro-inertia, which is particularly significant for low internal length values, therefore for a wide range of materials used in structural engineering. The developed method shows an important size effect for the higher gradients, and to remove these effects correction terms have been incorporated which are related to the quadratic moment of inertia. We analyze in this context the influence of the correction terms on the static and dynamic behavior of composites with a central inclusion

Full textThis work consists of developing a software tool based on the linear thermomechanical modeling of the heat exchanger using homogenization techniques. A methodology for modeling the heat exchanger constituted by stacking of different brazed fins and sheets is adopted. This methodology assumes that the global behavior of every layer of fins and sheets is found between two behavior limits determined by periodic mechanical approach (HMP) and periodic kinematical approach (HCP). These techniques are implemented for numerical application while studying global loading due to the temperature and pressure internal loads. A homogenization tool (HomPass) is then developed in order to calculate automatically equivalent behaviors to each layer of brazed fins and sheets. That contributes to the development of the final software tool (SiTEME) dedicated to the global thermomechanical study of the heat exchanger

Full textBones are inhomogeneous solids with highly complex structures that require multiscale modeling to understand its electromechanical behavior and its remodeling mechanisms. The objective of this work is to find analytical expressions for the effective elastic, piezoelectric, and dielectric properties of cortical bone by modeling it on two scales: microscopic and macroscopic. We use Asymptotic Homogenization Method (AHM) to calculate the effective electromechanical constants of this material. The AHM yields a two-scale procedure to obtain the effective properties of a composite material containing a periodic distribution of unidirectional circular cylindrical holes in a linear transversely isotropic piezoelectric matrix. The matrix material belongs to the symmetry crystal class 622. The holes are centered in a periodic array of cells of square cross sections and the periodicity is the same in two perpendicular directions. The piezoelectric composite is under antiplane shear deformation together with in-plane electric field. Local problems that arise from the two-scale analysis using the AHM are solved by means of a complex variable method, which allows us to expand the corresponding solutions in power series of Weierstrass elliptic functions. The coefficients of these series are determined from the solutions of infinite systems of linear algebraic equations. Truncating the infinite systems up to a finite, but otherwise arbitrary, order of approximation, we obtain analytical formulas for effective elastic, piezoelectric, and dielectric properties, which depend on both the volume fraction of the holes and an electromechanical coupling factor of the matrix. Numerical results obtained from these formulas are compared with results obtained by the Mori-Tanaka approach and show good agreement. The good agreement between all curves obtained via AHM suggests that the corresponding expression of first approximation provides a very simple formula to calculate the effective coupling factor of the composite. The results are useful in bone mechanics.

Full textThe hydrodynamic bearing provides good damping properties in rotating machineries. However, the performances of rotor-bearings systems are highly impacted by nonlinear effects that are difficult to analyze. The rotordynamics prediction requires advanced models for the flow in the bearings. The surface of the bearings seems to have a strong impact on the lubricant flow, acting on the static and dynamic properties of the rotating parts. This study aims to enhance the simulation of the bearings’ surface state effect on the motion of the rotating shaft. The flexible shaft interacts with textured hydrodynamic bearings. Multi-scales homogenization is used in a multi-physics algorithm in order to describe the fluid-structure interaction. Different models are used to account for the cavitation phenomenon in the bearings. Nonlinear harmonic methods allow efficient parametric studies of periodic solutions as well as their stability. Moreover, a test rig has been designed to compare predictions to real measurements. Several textured shaft samples modified with femto-seconds LASER surface texturing are tested. In most cases the experimental study showed similar results than the simulation. Enhancements of the vibration behaviors of the rotor-bearing system have been revealed for certain texturing patterns. The self-excited vibration, also known as "oil whirl" phenomenon, is stabilized on a wide rotating frequency range. However, the simulation tool does not predict well the enhancements that are observed. Vortices in surface texturing patterns have been revealed numerically with Navier-Stokes equation resolution. These results are opposed to the classical lubrication hypothesis. It is also a possible explanation of the enhancements that are experimentally measured with textured bearings

Full textGiven their unique properties, there is an increasing interest in using metal foams. In order to expand the usage of these materials, there is a great need to accurately characterize their effective properties. However, there is a great difficulty in predicting the properties of these inhomogeneous materials due to their irregularities and micro defects. The scope of this work is precisely to find analytical models or numerical methods that can describe the behaviour of metallic foams in an elastic regime. To do this, numerical methods and analytical models provided by previous works, were used. To apply the numerical methods, it was necessary to model representative unitcell geometries. Based on previous works results, the selected geometries were the Kelvin and the Weaire-Phelan structures. With these it was possible to model closed-cell and open-cell representative unit-cells. The open and closed-cell geometries were then subjected to three numerical methods, symmetry boundary conditions with a prescribed force, symmetry boundary conditions with an imposed displacement and asymptotic expansion homogenization. The two methods that use symmetry boundary conditions were analysed in Femap software and the Asymptotic Expansion Homogenization, which uses periodic boundary conditions, was analysed with main-FRAN program. It is known that the relative density is the characteristic that has bigger influence on metal foams stiffness. As the analytical models relate the relative Young’s modulus with the relative density, in this work this relation was also obtained for each numerical method. The numerical results were then compared to the analytical models and to experimental results.
Dadas as suas propriedades únicas, existe um interesse crescente em utilizar espumas metálicas. De forma a globalizar a utilização destes materiais, há uma grande necessidade de caracterizar com precisão as suas propriedades efetivas. Contudo, há uma grande dificuldade em prever as propriedades destes materiais não-homogéneos devido às suas irregularidades e microdefeitos. O âmbito deste trabalho é precisamente encontrar modelos analíticos ou métodos numéricos que consigam descrever o comportamento das espumas metálicas em regime elástico. Para isso foram usados métodos numéricos e modelos analíticos providenciados por trabalhos precedentes. Para aplicar os métodos numéricos foi necessário, modelar as geometrias das células unitárias representativas. Com base nos resultados de trabalhos já existentes, as geometrias selecionadas foram as estruturas de Kelvin e de Weaire-Phelan. Com estas geometrias definidas, foi possível modelar células representativas unitárias de célula aberta e de célula fechada. Após definidas, as geometrias de célula aberta e célula fechada foram submetidas a três métodos numéricos, condições de fronteira de simetria com uma força prescrita, condições de fronteira de simetria com deslocamento imposto e homogeneização por expansão assimptótica. Os dois métodos que usam condições de fronteira simétricas foram analisados no programa Femap, o procedimento de homogeneização por expansão assimptótica, que usa condições de fronteira periódicas, foi analisado através do programa mainFRAN. Sabe-se que a densidade relativa é a característica que tem maior influência sobre a rigidez das espumas metálicas. Como os modelos analíticos relacionam o módulo de Young relativo com a densidade relativa, neste trabalho esta relação também foi obtida para cada método numérico. Os resultados numéricos foram então comparados com modelos analíticos e com resultados experimentais.

Full textOil-in-water nanoemulsions can be used as drug delivery systems for the encapsulation of hydrophobic active substances in order to increase their solubility and their bioavailability. However, due to their higher specific area, their stabilization requires higher surfactant concentrations compared to conventional emulsions. Most of the synthetic surfactants commonly used in emulsion formulation are potentially irritant and even toxic, which hinders the therapeutic application of nanoemulsions especially during long-term treatment. The objective of this thesis is thus to formulate pharmaceutical oil/water nanoemulsions stabilized by a biopolymer, beta-lactoglobulin (beta-lg), instead of synthetic surfactants. Nanoemulsions were prepared by high pressure homogenization (HPH). The formulation composition and the process conditions were optimized in order to obtain nanometric droplets within stable nanoemulsions. The results showed that the most stable nanoemulsions, with droplet size inférieure à 200 nm, were obtained when 5 w/w% of the oil with the lowest viscosity value was used as the oily phase, 95 w/w% of beta-lg solution at a concentration of 1 w/w% was used as the aqueous phase, and 100 MPa of homogenization pressure was applied for 4 cycles. This formulation was stable against droplet growth phenomena during 30 days at least, thanks to a quasi purely elastic interfacial film. Xanthan gum, a natural polysaccharide, was added to the optimal formulation as a texturizing agent at a concentration of 0.5 w/w%. This allowed obtaining a cream texture with a shear thinning behavior. In this formulation, the migration rate of droplets was considerably reduced and the nanoemulsions stability was enhanced.The effects of the homogenization process on the different levels of the protein structure were assessed by spectroscopic, chromatographic and electrophoretic methods. The influence of this treatment on its interfacial and emulsifying properties was also investigated. The optimal emulsifying efficiency was obtained when the homogenization conditions did alter neither the structure of beta-lg nor its interfacial properties. However, an excessive HPH treatment (300 MPa/5 cycles) introduced structural modifications, mainly from beta-sheets into random coils, wide loss in lipocalin core, and protein aggregation by intermolecular disulfide bridges. HPH modified beta-lg displayed higher surface hydrophobicity inducing a higher adsorption rate at the O/W interface and an earlier formation of an elastic interfacial film. Structural and interfacial properties modifications by HPH denaturation appeared qualitatively similar to that of the heat denaturation with, however, differences in extent. Protein denaturation by a high pressure treatment that was performed before the emulsification process did not alter significantly its emulsifying efficiency. The reduction in the efficiency was rather induced by the simultaneous denaturation with the emulsification under high turbulent flow.The efficiency of the developed formulation as a vehicle for a model hydrophobic active substance was studied using isotretinoin, usually used for the treatment of severe acne. The developed formulation was able to encapsulate 0.033 w/w of isotretinoin without any modification on the system stability. About 10 % of the added isotretinoin was solubilized in the aqueous phase associated with the free protein in excess. Isotretinoin encapsulated in the oily droplets was more stable against photo isomerization than the one associated to the excess protein in the aqueous phase. The developed formulation seems promising as a drug delivery system of isotretinoin for a dermal application

Full textIn the nuclear industry, tube bundles immersed in a fluid are often encountered. The knowledge of the dynamic response of these systems is one of the major concern of the nuclear safety. It is well known that the presence of a fluid modifies the dynamic behavior of a structure according to two types of effects: inertial and dissipative. However, the complex geometry and the large amount of elements make any numerical simulations difficult to achieve due to the important sizes and calculation times. In order to solve this problem, homogenization methods for fluid structure-interaction are developed. Firstly, homogeneous models were obtained using linear Euler equations. However, these equations take into account only the inertial effects generated by the fluid on the structure. The purpose of this thesis work is to obtain an equivalent linear expression of the fluid force that can be used in a homogeneous model based on the Navier-Stokes equations. An equivalent linear expression for the fluid force is obtained in terms of macroscopic variables describing the fluid-structure interaction system: the Darcy velocity and the structure displacement field. The local effects are modeled, in the expression of the fluid force, by two coefficients: the inertial coefficient and the added dissipation coefficient

Full textThis work is devoted to shape and topology optimization of multiphysics systemsmotivated by aeronautic industrial applications. Shape derivatives of arbitraryobjective functionals are computed for a weakly coupled thermal fluid-structuremodel. A novel gradient flow type algorithm is then developed for solving genericconstrained shape optimization problems without the need for tuning non-physicalmetaparameters. Motivated by the need for enforcing non-mixing constraints in thedesign of liquid-liquid heat exchangers, a variational method is developed in orderto simplify the numerical evaluation of geometric constraints: it allows to computeline integrals on a mesh by solving a variational problem without requiring theexplicit knowledge of these lines on the spatial discretization. All theseingredients allowed us to implement a variety of 2-d and 3-d multiphysics shapeoptimization test cases: from single, double or three physics problems in 2-d, tomoderately large-scale 3-d test cases for structural design, thermal conduction,aerodynamic design and a fluid-structure interacting system. A final opening chapterderives high order homogenized equations for perforated elliptic systems. These highorder equations encompass the three classical regimes of homogenized modelsassociated with different obstacle's size scalings. They could allow, in futureworks, to develop new topology optimization methods for fluid systems characterizedby multi-scale patterns as commonly encountered in industrial heat exchanger designs

Full textThis thesis focuses on the mathematical modeling of fibrous structures having somepeculiar properties (high strength-to-weight ratio and very good toughness infracture), whose mechanical behavior escapes from standard Cauchy elasticity. Inparticular, it addresses cases in which the presence of a microstructure, consisting ofregularly spaced pivoted beams, entails effects that are well described by generalizedcontinuum models, i.e. models in which the deformation energy density depends notonly on the gradient of the placement but also on the second (and possibly higher)gradients of it. In the Introduction, the state of the art concerning generalizedcontinua and their applications for the description of fibrous structures is describedand some relevant open problems are highlighted. In Chapter 1 and 2 a rigoroushomogenization procedure based on Gamma-convergence arguments is performedfor a lattice (truss-like) structure and for a discrete 1D system (Hencky-type beammodel). In Chapter 3, a variational treatment is employed to formulate acomputationally convenient approach. In Chapter 4 some experimental resultsconcerning the behavior of the structure in various kinds of deformation arediscussed. This motivated the investigation performed in Chapter 5, in which DirectMethods of Calculus of Variations are applied to Euler beams in large deformationsunder distributed load

Full textIn einem Tagebau können die feinkörnigen Böden in unterschiedlichen Zustandsformen entstehen. Dies sind zum einen klumpige Böden mit einer granular ähnlichen Struktur (Pseudokornstruktur) und einer hohen Konsistenzzahl und zum anderen Mischungen aus mehreren Tonen oder Schluffen mit niedriger Konsistenzzahl. Der Zustand wird dabei massgebend von dem Transport (z.B. Länge des Förderbandes) und dem Ausgangszustand (z.B. der Anfangsscherfestigkeit) beeinflusst. Klumpige Böden entstehen bei der Abbaggerung des natürlichen Materials auf der Abbauseite, welches eine hohe Festigkeit besitzt. Alle Böden werden normalerweise ohne Verdichtung verkippt, so entstehen bei der Verkippung von klumpigen Böden grosse Makro-Porenräume zwischen den Klumpen, welche sehr luft- bzw. wasserdurchlässig sind. Nach einiger Zeit entsteht eine neue Struktur aus den Klumpen und dem Material des sich von aussen auflösenden Klumpens, welches das Füllmaterial bildet. Wenn die Festigkeit des Ausgangsmaterials niedrig ist oder lange Transportwege stattfinden, zerfallen die Klumpen. Zudem werden die Böden von verschiedenen Schichten der Abbauseite unter einander gemischt, wodurch die Tongemische entstehen. Sowohl für die Dimensionierung und Berechnung der aus den Verkippungen entstehenden Tagebaurandböschungen sowie für eine spätere Nutzung des ehemaligen Tagebaugebietes ist die Kenntnisüber das Deformations- und Verformungsverhalten von Kippenböden notwendig. Daher wurden in dieser Arbeit Tagebauböden und ihr zeitlich veränderliches Verhalten untersucht. Dabei werden diese, bezugnehmend auf den Anfangszustand, in drei typische Materialien unterschieden: (1) der frisch verkippte klumpige Boden, (2) eine Mischung aus Klumpen und Füllmaterial, welche höhere Liegezeiten repräsentiert und (3) Mischungen von feinkörnigen Ausgangsböden. Zunächst wurden künstlich hergestellte klumpige Böden untersucht. Sie bilden eine Übergangsform zwischen aufbereiteten und natürlichen klumpigen Böden. Das Kompressions- und Scherverhalten sowie die Durchlässigkeit wurden an Ödometer und Triaxialversuchen bestimmt. Das Füllmaterial, welches die Makroporen zwischen den Klumpen füllt, spielt eine entscheidende Rolle für das Materialverhalten. Ähnlich wie bei den künstlich hergestellten klumpigen Böden schliessen sich auch bei den Böden im Tagebau die Makroporenschen bei niedrigen Spannungen. Dabei werden die Klumpen umgelagert. Allerdings befindet sich die Grenze des Spannungszustandes oberhalb der Critical State Line des Füllmaterials, was möglicherweise mit den unter Diagenese entstandenen Bodenstrukturen erklärt werden kann. Die Strukturänderung der klumpigen Böden kann aufgrund des Spannungsniveaus in drei mögliche Stufen unterteilt werden. Am Anfang ist die Kompressibilität der frischen verkippten Klumpen hoch, da sich die Makroporen bereits bei geringen Spannungen schliessen. Zu diesem Zeitpunkt sind auch die Durchlässigkeiten in erster Linie von den grossen Porenräumen der Makroporen, welche als Entwässerungspfade dienen, beeinflusst. Die Scherfestigkeit hingegen, wird durch die aufgeweichten Böden an den Oberflächen der Klumpen massgebend beeinflusst. Bei höheren Konsolidationspannungen sinkt die Kompressibilität und der Boden verhält sich wie einüberkonsolidierter Boden. Obwohl die Struktur aufgrund der veränderten Klumpenoberflächen zu diesem Zeitpunkt homogener wirkt, ist die Struktur noch heterogen und die Durchlässigkeit ist höher als bei einem aufbereiteten Boden mit gleichem spezifischem Volumen (Porenzahl). Letztendlich erreicht der aktuelle Spannungszustand den derüberkonsolidierten Klumpen und der gesamte Boden verhält sich wie ein normal konsolidierter Boden. Des Weiteren wurden isotrop konsolidierte drainierte Triaxialversuche an künstlich aus zwei Ausgangsmaterialien hergestellten Proben mit parallelen und seriellen Strukturen durchgeführt. Die Laborversuche zeigten, dass die Proben mit seriellem Aufbau dieselben Gleitflächen haben, wie der Ausgangsboden mit der niedrigeren Scherfestigkeit. Die Gleitfläche der Proben mit parallelen Strukturen verlief durch beide Materialien. Es wurde festgestellt, dass die Scherfestigkeit der seriell aufgebauten Proben geringfügig höher, als die des Bodens mit der niedrigeren Scherfestigkeit ist. Die Scherfestigkeit der parallel aufgebauten Proben liegt zwischen den beiden Ausgangsmaterialien. Danach wurde das Verhalten der künstlich erzeugten klumpigen Böden mit zufällig verteiltem Füllmaterial mit Hilfe der Finiten Elemente Methode verglichen. Die Simulationen zeigten, dass unter einer isotropen Kompressionsbelastung das Spannungsverhältnis, definiert aus dem Verhältnis der Spannung des Volumendurchschnitts zwischen den Klumpen und dem Füllmaterial, deutlich durch die Volumenanteile und die Vorkonsoliderungsspannung der Klumpen beeinflusst wird. Während das Volumenverhältnis eine untergeordnete Rolle in den in Triaxialzellen unter Scherung belasteten Proben spielt. Aus den Simulationsergebnissen und den Laborversuchen der beiden Grundkonfigurationen wurde ein Homogenisierungsgesetz abgeleitet, welches die Sekandensteifigkeiten verwendet. Das Kompressionsverhalten der Mischungen aus Klumpen und Füllmaterial wurde mit Blick auf die Homogenisierung analysiert. Zunächst kann das Volumen der Mischungen in 4 individuelle Komponentenanteile zerlegt werden. Die Makroporosität zwischen den Klumpen wurde zur Entwicklung der Volumenanteile des Füllmaterials eingeführt. Sie wurde als eine Funktion der totalen Porosität und der Materialien formuliert. Auf Grundlage einer theoretischen Analyse an klumpigen Böden und unter Zuhilfenahme einer numerischen Methode wird ein Gesetz zur Homogenisierung vorgeschlagen. Dieses enthält eine Beziehung zwischen der Tagentensteifigkeit der Klumpen und seinem Füllmaterial. Abschliessend wird ein einfaches Kompressionsmodel für die Mischung aus Klumpen und Füllmaterial vorgeschlagen, welches den Einfluss der Bodenstruktur und der Änderung des Volumenanteils des Füllmaterials berücksichtigt. Darüber hinaus wurde eine allgemeine Formulierung für das Konsolidationsverhalten der klumpigen Böden mit Füllmaterial vorgeschlagen, welche sich auf das Konzept der doppelten Porosität (Klumpen und Füllmaterial) und eine Homogenisierungstheoerie bezieht. Um das Verhalten der Klumpen bei niedrigen Spannungen zu beschreiben, wird eine neue Grenzbedingung unter Zuhilfenahme der äquivalenten Hvorslev-Spannung und des Criticial State Konzeptes vorgeschlagen. Der Struktureffekt für sensitive Böden wurde in die nichtlineare Hvorslev-Oberfläche eingebaut. Das allgemein gültige Cam-Clay-Model von McDowell und Hau (2003) wurde um die nasse Seite des Critical State Konzeptes erweitert. Eine Sekandensteifigkeit, definiert aus dem Verhältnis zwischen der Deviatorspannung und der Deviatordehnung, wurde für das Homogenisieurungsgesetz ebenfalls verwendet. Abschliessend wird ein Modell für natürliche klumpige Böden vorgestellt, welches auch eine Homogenisierung beinhaltet. Die physikalischen Eigenschaften, das Kompressionsverhalten und die undrainierten Scherfestigkeiten von aufbereiten Tongemischen wurden im Labor unter Herstellung künstlicher Bödengemische untersucht. Anschliessend wurde ein Kompressions- und Schermodell für aufbereitete Tongemische vorgeschlagen. Das Modell der Scherfestigkeit der Tongemische entstand aus der Vereinfachung der Tongemischstruktur, in welcher die Elemente der Ausgangsmaterialien zufällig in dem Einheitsvolumen verteilt sind. Werden Wassergehaltsverhältnisse (das Verhältnis der Wassergehalte der Ausgangsmaterialien) definiert, kann die undrainierte Scherfestigkeit für alle Bestandteile separat geschätzt werden und dannüber die Volumenanteile bestimmt werden. Ein Homogenisierungsgesetz wurde auf Grundlage der theoretischen Analyse von zufällig angeordneten Strukturen entwickelt. Ein einfaches Kompressionsmodell, welches N-Ausgangsmaterielien bzw. Tone und eine Homogenisierung enthält, wird vorgeschlagen, und an einer Mischung aus 2 Bestandteilen im Labor validiert

Full textTo evaluate the load bearing capacity of structures, civil engineers often make use of empirical methods, which are often manuals, instead of nonlinear finite element methods available in existing civil engineering softwares, which are long to process and difficult to handle. Yield design (or limit analysis) approach, formalized by J. Salençon, is a rigorous method to evaluate the capacity of structures and can be used to answer the question of structural failure. It was, yet, not possible to take advantage of these theoretical methods due to the lack of efficient numerical methods. Recent progress in this field and notably in interior point algorithms allows one to rethink this opportunity. Therefore, the main objective of this thesis is to develop a numerical model, based on the yield design approach, to evaluate the ultimate capacity of massive (3D) reinforced concrete structural elements. Both static and kinematic approaches are implemented and expressed as an optimization problem that can be solved by a mathematical optimization solver in the framework of Semi-Definite Programming (SDP).A large part of this work is on modelling the resistance of the different components of the reinforced concrete composite material. The modelling assumptions taken to model the resistance of concrete are discussed. And the method used to model reinforcement is also questioned. The homogenization method is used to model periodic reinforcement and an adaptation of this technique is developed for isolated rebars. To conclude this work, a last part is dedicated to illustrate the power and potentialities of the numerical tool developed during this PhD thesis through various examples of massive structures

Full textThe goal of this multi-disciplinary thesis is to study the fluid-structure interaction problem from mathematical and physical viewpoints. Viscous fluid-structure interaction problems describe, for example, interactions between the Earth mantle and the Earth crust, the blood and the vascular wall in a blood vessels, etc. In engineering viscous fluid-structure interaction appears during colloidal solution formation when a laser pierce through the fluid influencing the substrate (laser ablation in a liquid). Selective laser melting (SLM) is used to study the behavior of residual stresses depending on the thermoelastic and mechanical properties of the material and on various forms of reloaded beads. From mathematical point of view the coupled system “viscous fluid flow-thin elastic plate” in 3D when the thickness of the plate, E, tends to zero, while the density and the Young’s modulus of the plate material are of order 1 and E-3, respectively, is considered. The plate lies on the fluid which occupies a thick domain. The multi-scale modeling is performed for the elastic part. The complete asymptotic expansion is constructed when E tends to zero. The existence, the regularity and the uniqueness of the solution for the original problem are studied by means of variational techniques. The method of asymptotic partial domain decomposition is applied for the coupled system. The error of the method is evaluated

Full textMånga djur använder sig av fjäll, päls, hår eller fjädrar för att öka sin förmåga att förflytta sig i luft eller vatten. Eftersom djuren har genomgått miljontals år av evolution, kan man förvänta sig att ytstrukturernas form är optimala för organismens uppgifter. Dessa strukturer tjänar som inspiration i denna avhandling för att identifiera nya mekanismer för manipulering av strömning. Samverkan mellan fluider och strukturer (så kallad fluid-struktur-interaktion) kan delas upp i två kategorier. Den första typen av samverkan är aktiv, vilket innebär att en organism aktivt rör hela eller delar av sin kropp för att manipulera det omgivande strömningsfältet (till exempel fåglar som flaxar sina vingar). Den andra typen är passiv samverkan, där organismer har utväxter (svansar, fjärdar, etc.) eller ytbeläggningar som de inte aktivt har kontroll över och som således inte förbrukar någon energi. Ett exempel är fjädrar som passivt rör sig i det omgivande flödet. Vårt mål är att hitta nya passiva mekanismer som växelverkar med den omgivande fluiden på ett fördelaktigt sätt, exempelvis genom att öka lyftkraften eller minska luftmotståndet. I den första delen av detta arbete undersöker vi en enkel modell för en utväxt (i form av en platta) bakom en cirkulär cylinder eller sfär. Om plattan är tillräckligt kort och om det finns ett vak bakom kroppen kommer det upprätta läget av plattan att vara instabilt. Denna instabilitet är i princip samma som uppstår då man försöker balansera en penna på fingret. Vi förklarar den bakomliggande mekanismen av denna instabilitet genom numeriska beräkningar, experiment och en enkel modell med tre frihetsgrader. Konsekvenserna av denna instabilitet är en omorientering (rotation) av kroppen och en sidledsförflyttning av kroppen i förhållande till tyngdkraftens riktning. Denna mekanism kan användas djur och frön för att öka deras förmåga att förflytta eller sprida sig i vatten eller luft. I den andra delen av avhandlingen studerar vi modeller av porösa och elastiska material. Vi använder en mångskalig metod för att modellera det poroelastiska materialet som ett kontinuum. Vi härleder randvillkor för både hastighetsfältet och trycket på gränssnittet mellan den fria fluiden och det poroelastiska materialet. Resultaten som erhållits med de härledda randvillkoren valideras sedan genom direkta numeriska simuleringar (DNS) för både två- och tredimensionella fall. Kontinuumsmodellen av materialet kopplad genom randvillkoren till den fria strömmande fluiden predikterar strömnings- och förskjutningsfält noggrant i jämförelse med DNS.

Full textIn order to retrieve effective parameter of the periodic structure, people have made effort to develop the theory of homogenization, which regards the periodic structure as a homo- geneous medium. This thesis mainly focuses on the proposition and validation of classical and second order homogenization. A kind of method for homogenization is applied to ob- tain effective parameters of multilayer structures. Moreover, classical homogenization is adopted to calculate transmission properties of dielectric multilayer structures and the dis- persion relation of metallic cylinder array mounted on a smooth metallic ground plane. From the dispersion relation, its band gap property at a certain frequency band is revealed and is applied to reshape the radiation pattern of traditional patch antenna by suppressing the surface wave propagating on the ground plane. We have published his part of the work in [22]. We experimentally demonstrate one important limitation of classical homogenization when calculating the transmission property of an ultra-thin metallic grating. The mea- sured transmission coefficient is much smaller than that calculated by classical homoge- nization, although the interferences may be caused by the imperfect experiment facility are eliminated. Thus we propose a new second order homogenization, which is able to get the transmission coefficient correspondent to numerical results. Furthermore, second order homogenization has been experimentally validated by several metallic grating with the same dimension except for the thickness. This part of work will be included in a chapter of a book will be published by Intech Publisher

Los principios teóricos desarrollados en el método de homogeneización multi-dominio se aplicaron para ensamblar una herramienta computacional basada en dos problemas de valores de contorno anidados, los cuales son representados por un código de elementos finitos (FE) en dos escalas: a) una escala global, que trata el material compuesto como un material homogéneo. Esta escala se ocupa de las condiciones de contorno, las cargas aplicadas y los diferentes subdominios periódicos (o cuasi-periódicos) que puedan existir en el material compuesto; y b) una escala local, que obtiene la respuesta homogenizada de un volumen representativo o celda unitaria. Esta escala se ocupa de la geometría, y de la distribución espacial de los constituyentes del compuesto así como de sus propiedades constitutivas. El método se basa en la hipótesis de periodicidad local derivada de la periodicidad de la estructura interna del material. La implementación numérica de las restricciones de los desplazamientos y las fuerzas derivadas de la periodicidad se realizaron por medio del método de multiplicadores de Lagrange. La formulación incluye un método para calcular el tensor constitutivo tangente no-lineal homogeneizado una vez que el umbral de la no-linealidad de cualquiera de las celdas unitarias ha sido superado. El procedimiento se basa en llevar a cabo una derivación numérica aplicando una técnica de perturbación. El tensor constitutivo tangente se calcula para cada incremento de carga y para cada iteración del análisis una vez que la estructura ha entrado en el rango no-lineal. El método de perturbación se aplicó tanto en la escala global como en la local con el fin de analizar la efectividad del método en ambas escalas. Se lleva a cabo un proceso de paralelización en el método con el fin de acelerar el proceso de cómputo debido al enorme coste computacional que requiere la solución iterativa incremental anidada. Se investiga el efecto de ablandamiento por deformación en el material usando el método de homogeneización en dos escalas a través de un enfoque de fractura discreta. Se estudió la objetividad en el mallado dentro de la formulación clásica de FE en una escala y luego los conceptos expuestos se extrapolaron en el marco de la homogeneización de dos escalas. Se enfatiza la importancia de la longitud característica del elemento en un análisis multi-escala en el cálculo de la energía específica disipada cuando se produce el efecto de ablandamiento. Se presentan varios ejemplos para evaluar la propuesta computacional desarrollada en esta investigación. Se estudiaron diferentes configuraciones de compuestos que incluyen diferentes tipos de materiales, así como compuestos que presentan ablandamiento después de que el punto de fluencia del material se alcanza (usando daño y plasticidad) y compuestos con zonas que presentan altos gradientes de deformación. Los ejemplos se llevaron a cabo en materiales compuestos con uno y con varios dominios periódicos utilizando diferentes configuraciones de células unitarias.

Full textQuasi periodic (QP) structures have shown peculiar properties in the atomistic domain, especially the vibrational one. It could be interesting to be able to transpose these properties in macroscopic meta-materials. Quasi periodic 2D beam lattices are studied in this thesis due to the simplicity of the Euler Bernoulli finite element (FE) model. These beam lattices can easily be produced by additive manufacturing or by laser cutting. It is possible to vary the beam slenderness (i.e the ratio of height over length) that is a interesting parameter to modify the mechanical response of the lattice. Using finite element method, the influence of the beam slenderness over the vibration behavior of the QP beam lattices will be studied. The Kernel Polynomial numerical Method (KPM) is successfully adapted from molecular dynamics simulations in order to study vibrational modes of FE beam lattices without having to fully diagonalize the dynamical matrix. The QP lattices show similar properties as their atomic counterpart e.g mode localization over sub-stuctures and hierarchical dispersion relation. The fracture behavior is also studied, as the special symmetries allowed by the quasi periodicity could result in beam lattices without weak planes for crack propagation. It was proved to be true from static FE simulations with a brittle strain energy breaking criterion. Static simulations were not enough and do not grasp the complex dynamical phenomena taking place in brittle fracture. A dynamic crack propagation model was thus developed. The vibrational properties of quasi periodic structures could also have an impact on the dynamic crack propagation. Several simulations are run in order to study the impact of the slenderness on the energy dissipated by fracture of QP lattices. Finally, a coarse graining method (CG) was developed to identify a continuous Cosserat medium at different scales from the FE beam model. This CG method allows to identify, density, strain, stress and elastic moduli of an equivalent continuous Cosserat. This allows a better understanding of the role of previously identified characteristic sub structures

Full textMasonry structures are widely used in civil engineering as part of buildings or in refractory linings of structures working at high temperatures, like in steel industry. Unfortunately, the present tools are not powerful enough to predict the behavior of these structures at their micro-cracked state and/or if one of their constituents behaves nonlinearly (e.g. the mortar). This research contributes to the multi-level modeling of classical masonries and refractory linings with a low numerical cost using basically the periodic homogenization technique. Modeling and simulation techniques of masonry behavior are presented and developped. The influence of interface law between bricks and mortar, of geometrical and material parameters, and of crack density on the effective masonry behavior is studied. Three approaches (analytical extension of Cecchi and Tralli, numerical approach and micromechanical modeling) were proposed to determine the effective behavior of a periodic masonry cell with micro-cracked viscoelastic mortar and safe elastic or rigid bricks. The results obtained on two examples of masonry (1D and 2D) confirmed that the multi-scale approach is a suitable solution with a great ability to model the effective behavior of microcracked viscoelastic masonry. This work, actually limited to the case without crack propagation, could be extended to mortars with viscoplastic behavior

Full textÖkad implementering av gitterstrukturer i komponenter är ett resultat av utvecklingen inom additiv tillverkning. Metoden öppnar upp för tillverkning av komplexa strukturer med färre delmoment. Dock så uppkommer det svårigheter vid simulering av dessa komplexa strukturer då beräkningar snabbt tyngs ner med ökad komplexitet. Följande examensarbete har utförts hos avdelningen Strukturanalys, på SAAB i Järfälla, för att de ska kunna möta upp det framtida behovet av beräkningar på additivt tillverkade gitterstrukturer. I det här arbetet presenteras ett tillvägagångsätt för modellering av gitterstrukturer med hjälp av represantiva volymselement. Styvhetsmatriser har räknats fram, för en vald gitterkonfiguration, som sedan viktats mot tre snarlika representativa volymselement. En jämförelseanalys mellan de olika styvhetsmatriserna har sedan gjorts på en större och solid modell för att se hur väl metoderna förutsett deformationen av en gitterstruktur i samma storlek. Resultaten har visat att samtliga metoder är bra approximationer med tämligen små skillnader från randeffekterna. Vid jämförelseanalysen simulerades gitterstrukturen bäst med två av de tre metoder. En av slutsatserna är att det är viktigt att förstå inverkan av randvillkoren hos gitterstrukturer innan implementering görs med det tillvägagångssätt som presenterats i det här examensarbetet.

Full textIn the race for light materials able of meeting modern environmental challenges, an acrylic resin (Elium) has been developed. Elium is a thermoplastic resin able to replace thermosetting matrices, which are widespread nowadays in the industrial world. The present study aims to evaluate the impact resistance and to understand the failure mechanisms of composite laminates based on acrylic matrix under impact loading. We provide a contribution to the multiscale analysis of the impact resistance of laminated composite.First, the impact resistance and the damage tolerance of the acrylic resin based composites were compared with those of conventional composites. Then, the impact performance of the laminated composites has been enhanced by adding copolymer blocks to the liquid acrylic resin. These copolymers are able to form micelles of nanometer sizes, which lead to the improvement of both the acrylic matrix fracture toughness and the impact resistance. The effects of the impact energy, temperature, and composition in nano-copolymers have also been investigated.In order to provide a numerical tool for the prediction of the impact response of the glass fiber/Acrylic laminates, two strategies have been analyzed. The first one, performed at the macroscopic scale, considers the woven ply of the laminate as homogeneous material, and the second one (at the mesoscopic scale), deals with a realistic geometrical description of the yarns undulation. Both models use cohesive zones at the interface between the adjacent plies, to simulate the delamination. For this purpose, experimental and numerical delamination tests were performed to feed the inter-ply damage model. Mechanical tests for material characterization were also performed on specimens in order to identify the ply-damage model parameters. The Mechanics of Structure Genome (MSG) and a finite element based micromechanics approaches were then conducted to evaluate the effective thermomechanical properties of the yarns and the plain woven composite laminate. The realistic topological and morphological textures of the composite were accounted through Texgen software. These numerical impact simulations were performed using the finite element software ABAQUS/Explicit. Both models were implemented through a user material subroutine VUMAT. The obtained results appear in a good agreement with the experimental data and confirm the relevance of the proposed approach
