Until now, no third gradient theory has been proposed to describe the homogenized energy associated with a microscopic structure. In this paper, we prove that is possible using pantographic-type structures. Their deformation energies involve combinations of nodal displacements having form second-order or third-order finite differences. We establish Γ-convergence these second and functionals. Some mechanical examples are provided so as illustrate special features models.
We determine the effective behavior of periodic structures made welded elastic bars.Taking into account fact that flexural and torsional stiffnesses are much smaller than extensional one, we bypass classical homogenization formulas obtain totally different types energies.We work in framework linear elasticity.We give examples 2D or 3D microstructures which lead to generalized 1D, 2D, continua like Timoshenko beam, Mindlin-Reissner plate, strain gradient, Cosserat micromorphic continua.1....
In this paper, we represent second-gradient internal work functionals in Lagrangian (referential) and Eulerian (spatial) descriptions, deduce the corresponding expressions for Piola transformations of stress double-stress tensors external forces double-forces. We also derive, both description, expression surface edge contact interactions (which include double-forces) continua terms normal curvature boundary surfaces shapes.
We determine in the framework of static linear elasticity homogenized behavior three-dimensional periodic structures made welded elastic bars. It has been shown that such can be modeled as discrete systems nodes linked by extensional, flexural/torsional interactions corresponding to frame lattices and models strain-gradient models, i.e., whose effective energy involves components first second gradients displacement field. However, existing there is no coupling between classical strain terms...
We characterize the functionals which are Mosco-limits, in L 2 (Ω) topology, of some sequence kind [Formula: see text] where Ω is a bounded domain ℝ N (N ≥ 3). It known that this family included closed set Dirichlet forms. Here, we prove forms actually closure diffusion functionals. A crucial step explicit construction composite material whose effective energy contains very simple nonlocal interaction.
