Difference. program, w i t h 2 - d i m e n s i o n a l continuum elements and e x p l i c i t. time. i n t e g r a t i o n , has been developed and applied to model the axisymmetric crumpling of c i r c u l a r tubes. New types of mi xed el ements ( T r i a n g l e s - Q u a d r i l a t e r a l s for 2-D, Tetrahedra-Bricks. for. 3-D). are. proposed. for. the. spatial. d i s c r e t i z a t i o n . These elements model accurately incompressible p l a s t i c f l o w , without unwanted " z e r o - e n e r g y " d e f o r m a t i o n modes or t a n g l i n g over of the mesh. E l a s t i c - p l a s t i c , r a t e dependent laws are modelled w i t h a "radial by p l a s t i c. return" algorithm. The transmission of heat generated. work and m a t e r i a l. dependence on t e m p e r a t u r e are. included, enabling a f u l l y coupled thermo-mechanical A 2-D and a x i s y m m e t r i c implementing the numerical. also. analysis.. computer program has been developed, techniques. described.. Computational. e f f i c i e n c y was e s s e n t i a l , as l a r g e s c a l e , c o s t l y a p p l i c a t i o n s were intended. An important part of the program was the contact a l g o r i t h m , enabling the modelling of i n t e r a c t i o n between surfaces. The a x i s y m m e t r i c c r u m p l i n g of tubes under a x i a l ("concertina". mode) has been analyzed N u m e r i c a l l y .. compression Quasi-static. experiments on Aluminium tubes were modelled, using v e l o c i t y s c a l i n g . Mery l a r g e s t r a i n s are developed i n the c r u m p l i n g p r o c e s s ; w i t h the help of tension t e s t s , material laws v a l i d f o r such s t r a i n ranges were developed. Good agreement was obtained between numerical and experimental. predictions. r e s u l t s . Modelling choices such as mesh refinement,. element type and v e l o c i t y scaling were studied, and found to have an i m p o r t a n t i n f l u e n c e on the numerical p r e d i c t i o n s . F i n a l l y , a l a r g e scale impact a n a l y s i s of a s t e e l tube at 176m/s was p e r f o r m e d . The r e s u l t s compared well w i t h experiment, i n d i c a t i n g differences w i t h the behaviour of low v e l o c i t y crumpling mechanisms.

(applications. s i m u l a t i o n of l a r g e s t r a i n tube c o l l a p s e. analysis,. chapters 5-7). The motivation f o r the t h e o r e t i c a l. part of the work l i e s in the. author's i n t e r e s t in non-linear s o l i d mechanics modelling,. understood. broadly as encompassing the f o l l o w i n g phenomena: - large s t r a i n s and large displacements (geometric - p l a s t i c and v i s c o p l a s t i c. behaviour (material. nonlinearities);. nonlinearities);. - contacts and impact (nonlinear boundary c o n d i t i o n s ) ; - thermomechanical coupling. On the p r a c t i c a l. side, the source of motivation was the research. program on tube c o l l a p s e mechanisms being c a r r i e d out at the C i v i l Engineering. department. of. King's. College,. University. (Andrews, England and Ghani, 1983). Such mechanisms are. of.

In the f i e l d of continuum mechanics t h i s has g r e a t l y increased the i n t e r e s t in d e t a i l e d mathematical d e s c r i p t i o n s , amenable t o be used i n n u m e r i c a l models w i t h d i s c r e t i z a t i o n t e c h n i q u e s (e.g. F i n i t e Element or F i n i t e Difference methods). Having confusion. said in. the. mathematicians,. this,. there. specialist. still. exists. a certain. literature.. On t h e. degree. part. rigorous mechanical descriptions are often. i n ways d i f f i c u l t. the. presented. t o be grasped by engineers and implemented. numerical production codes. As a r e s u l t , many engineers s t i l l t o outdated and much l e s s p o w e r f u l theoretical. of. presentations. of. in. c l i n g on. n o t a t i o n s . On the o t h e r hand,. are not u n i q u e , c a u s i n g some degree of. confusion to researchers f i r s t approaching seriously these t o p i c s . An e f f o r t. has been made i n t h i s. chapter. t o present. overview of c e r t a i n continuum mechanics concepts,. a brief. indispensable in a. rigorous treatment, without unnecessary mathematical fuss. The purpose of t h i s exposition i s : - t o i n t r o d u c e the nomenclature and d e f i n i t i o n s of concepts used i n l a t e r chapters; - t o discuss the s i g n i f i c a n c e of and i n t e r p r e t some concepts w i t h a view to numerical modelling (basis of t h i s work); - t o ensure c e r t a i n completeness f o r t h e ideas presented i n. this. thesis. It. must be s t r e s s e d , however, t h a t t h i s. e x p o s i t i o n does not. pretend to be complete. Only the concepts which are relevant for. the. r e s t of t h i s t h e s i s w i l l be d w e l t upon. In p a r t i c u l a r , emphasis i s l a i d on s o l i d mechanics and el a s t i c - p i a s t i c behaviour. A number of results. will. be presented. without. proof.. For. a more. complete.

Marsden and Hughes (1983) f o r. a more. detailed. and up-to-date mathematical d e s c r i p t i o n . In the f o l l o w i n g presentation, the ambient space is assumed to be an Euclidean p o i n t space ( i . e . i n t e r i o r product d e f i n e d ) , and where necessary t h i s w i l l. be p a r t i c u l a r i z e d to R3. The coordinate bases may. be c u r v i l i n e a r and a r b i t r a r y , a l t h o u g h when equations are given i n component form, often orthonormal bases (not n e c e s s a r i l y. cartesian). are assumed for s i m p l i c i t y . The usual conventions for tensor notation are employed: repeated i n d i c e s i n d i c a t e summation over t h e i r range unless e x p l i c i t l y. stated,. and commas indicate covariant. derivatives.. Vectors and tensors are represented by boldface characters. Superposed dots indicate material time d e r i v a t i v e s .. Given two t e n s o r s A and B the product AB i s understood t o be contracting the near indices with opposite variance: (AB)ij = AikBkj. (2.1). I f the i n d i c e s have the same v a r i a n c e , e.g. both are c o n t r a v a r i a n t , the metric tensor g is necessary to lower one: (AB) 1J - A l k g k l B 1 j = A l k 8 k j. (2.2). When the t e n s o r components are r e f e r r e d t o orthonormal v e r t i c a l position of the indices is i r r e l e v a n t ,. bases the. as the metric. tensor. is u n i t y . A colon indicates doubly contracted product: A:B = A ^ B ^. (2.3). 2.2 KINEMATICS A body (or continuum) i s a set whose e l e m e n t s , c a l l e d m a t e r i a l p a r t i c l e s , have a o n e - t o - o n e correspondence w i t h a r e g i o n V of the.

(21) 21. Euclidean point space. The following kinematics concepts are intended to provide a description of the motion of deformable bodies.. 2.2.1 CONFIGURATIONS Each particle X of the body B may be identified by its position X in the original configuration, V 0 , which is taken as reference: X = k(X). (2.4). X (components Xi) are c a l l e d Material or lagrangian coordinates of the p a r t i c l e . The motion of the body at a l a t e r time is given by the t i m e dependentpositions x of the p a r t i c l e s in the current c o n f i g u r a t i o n , V:. x = x(X,t). x (components x i ) are the spatial. (2.5). or Eulerian coordinates.. Hereafter. upper case i n d i c e s s h a l l r e f e r t o Lagrangian c o o r d i n a t e s , and lower case to Eulerian. The v e l o c i t i e s are defined as :2.6' where the dot s i g n i f i e s a material time d e r i v a t i v e , i.e. f o l l o w i n g the p a r t i c l e X.. 2.2.2 DEFORMATION TENSORS. Central to deformation measurements is the deformation gradient tensor:. F = dx/dX. (2.7). with components F n j = x 1 j . The t e n s o r F i s used as the base f o r a number of s t r a i n and d e f o r m a t i o n measures. An element of a curve dX i s t r a n s f o r m e d by.

(22) 22. dx = FdX. The inverse of F gives the spatial gradients of the material coordi nates:. F"1 = dX/dx (2.9) 1. 1. ( (F" ) ! = X. ! si. ). F c o n s t i t u t e s a two-point tensor. Another i n t e r p r e t a t i o n that. relates. F to transformations between configurations i s given in section 2.2.5. The Jacobian of the motion is J = det(F). (2.10). The polar decomposition of F gives F = RU = VR where R i s an o r t h o g o n a l. (rotation) tensor,. (2.11) RRT = I .. p o s i t i v e d e f i n i t e , and are c a l l e d the r i g h t and l e f t. U and V are. stretch tensors. r e s p e c t i v e l y . Equations (2.11) r e p r e s e n t two ways t o v i s u a l i z e the deformation: f i r s t. s t r e t c h i n g (U) and then r o t a t i n g (R), or. first. r o t a t i n g (R) and then s t r e t c h i n g (V) Other deformation measures are the Cauchy-Green tensors: C = F'F. ( r i g h t Cauchy-Green) (2.12). B = FF1. (left. Cauchy-Green). The l e n g t h of an element of curve i s given by ds2 = dxdx i n current c o n f i g u r a t i o n ,. and dS2 = dXdX in the o r i g i n a l. the. configuration.. The significance of C and B is given by the r e l a t i o n s ds2 = dXCdX (2.13) dS2 = dxB-ldx.

(23) 23. 2.2.3 DEFORMATION AND SPIN RATES The spatial velocity gradient tensor is defined as: 1 = dv/dx. (2.14). which can be decomposed i n t o symmetric and skew-symmetric p a r t s : d = (l+lT)/2 (2.15) w = (l-lT)/2 These are c a l l e d the rate of deformation (or v e l o c i t y s t r a i n ) and spin rate tensors respectively. The rate of change of length of an element of curve is given by ds = (dxddx)/ds. (2.16). 2.2.4 STRAINS A measure of the t o t a l. strain. is. given by the Green. strain. tensor, defined as E = (C - I ) / 2 where I is the I d e n t i t y tensor. I t is t r i v i a l ds2-dS2 = 2dXEdX. (2.17) to see that (2.18). and that the rate of E is given by E = FTdF. (2.19).

(24) 24. 2 . 2 . 5 TRANSFORMATIONS. For the t e n s o r s d e f i n e d above, some of the i n d i c e s r e f e r t o the original configuration. (upper case),. while others are related to the. current c o n f i g u r a t i o n (lower case). Here some transformation laws are given. to. find. the. corresponding. tensor. in. the. alternative. confi g u r a t i o n . Although the transformed tensors w i l l. be considered as d i f f e r e n t. t e n s o r i a l e n t i t i e s , one way t o v i s u a l i z e the t r a n s f o r m a t i o n i s as a mere change of base. Imagine a base ( O . e ^ f i x e d i n space t h r o u g h o u t the m o t i o n , and another base. ( 0 ' ( t ),e ' i U ) ). which. deforms. and. t r a n s l a t e s w i t h the body. In t h i s convected c u r v i l i n e a r base, the coordinates of a material point remain constant throughout the motion, and equal to the material coordinates, XI. The spatial components of F p r o v i d e t h e m a t r i x f o r the change of c o o r d i n a t e s between the two bases. Given a 2nd order c o n t r a v a r i a n t. t e n s o r a by i t s. convected. material components, a_U, the spatial components are a i j = OxVdxMOxJ/ax^aU. (2.20). Hence F provides a means for transforming between spatial and material coordinates, a"iJ and a_U are the components in d i f f e r e n t same t e n s o r ,. bases of the. a. I f now one assumes components a_U t o apply t o the. spatial basis, a new tensor is obtained: A = a_IJ ejBej. (2.21a). where s s i g n i f i e s a t e n s o r i a l product. A is c a l l e d the pull-back of a, and may be obtained as A = F _1 aF" T = (d£(a). (2.21b). while the push-forward is defined by the inverse r e l a t i o n : a = 0 t * ( A ) = FAFT. (2.22). These relations may be t r i v i a l l y generalized to tensors of any rank..

(25) 25. Elements. of. area. and. volume. in. reference. and. current. configurations are transformed by the f o l l o w i n g transport formulae: nda = JF"TNdA. (2.23a). dv - JdV. (2.23b). These r e l a t i o n s may be used t o express i n t e g r a l balance laws ( s e c t . 2.4) i n e i t h e r c o n f i g u r a t i o n . Eqn. (2.23a) c o n d i t i o n s t h e form of the Piola transformations. for the stress tensor (eqn. 2.25). 2.3 STRESS. 2.3.1 CAUCHY The concept of s t r e s s r e s t s upon the Cauchy p o s t u l a t e t h a t the action of the rest of the material upon any volume element of i t is of the same form as d i s t r i b u t e d s u r f a c e f o r c e s . A t r a c t i o n v e c t o r t ( n ) may be d e f i n e d at each p o i n t , infinitesimal. as t h e f o r c e. exerted. per. unit. area, for each o r i e n t a t i o n n.. A p p l y i n g e q u i l i b r i u m c o n s i d e r a t i o n s , i t may be deduced t h a t a stress tensor a. must e x i s t , such that for every o r i e n t a t i o n n t(n) = na. a i s c a l l e d the Cauchy or true stress tensor, and i t. (2.24) is. related. to the current c o n f i g u r a t i o n .. 2.3.2 PIOLA-KIRCHHOFF If. both the f o r c e and the area components of the concept. of. s t r e s s are t r a n s f o r m e d back i n t o the o r i g i n a l c o n f i g u r a t i o n , a new stress tensor is obtained: S = JF -1 (7 F _ t = J 0 t * ( c r ). (2.25).

(26) 26. This r e l a t i o n is c a l l e d the backward Piola t r a n s f o r m a t i o n . I t. defines. the 2nd P i o l a - K i r c h h o f f s t r e s s t e n s o r S, which i s a s t r e s s measure referred to the o r i g i n a l. configuration.. 2 . 4 BALANCE LAWS. Balance laws (mass, momentum, angular momentum, and energy) may be s t a t e d a l t e r n a t i v e l y Integral. in i n t e g r a l. form or as f i e l d. forms provide "weaker" expressions. equations.. for the same p r i n c i p l e s .. This w i l l be commented f u r t h e r in section 4.3.. 2 . 4 . 1 BALANCE OF MASS. Conservation of mass i m p l i e s. that. the mass of the. material. ocupying a c e r t a i n r e g i o n V of the body remains c o n s t a n t t h r o u g h o u t the motion:. (d/dt)fpdV = 0. (2.26). where p is the mass density. As a field. equation,. balance. of mass. is expressed. by the. continuity equation:. p + pdiv(v) = 0. (2.27). 2 . 4 . 2 BALANCE OF MOMENTUM. For a region V of the body w i t h boundary S, the i n t e g r a l form of the equation of l i n e a r momentum balance is ( d / d t ) f pvdV = I pfdV + f V where. f. is. the. V body. force. nadS. (2.28). S per u n i t. mass.. The. corresponding.

(27) 27. differential. expression is Cauchy's equation of motion, p v = d i v ( a). + pf. (2.29). The i n t e g r a l s i n eqn. (2.28) i n v o l v e v e c t o r s , and as p o i n t e d out by Marsden and Hughes (1978), may not provide a covariant statement of the momentum balance p r i n c i p l e in a general manifold. However, for the Euclidean space to which t h i s exposition r e f e r s , the objection is not relevant.. The i n t e g r a l. expression. is. better. suited. for. finite. difference numerical models (section 4.3), f o r which weak v a r i a t i o n a l global expressions (as employed in F i n i t e Elements) are not obtained. Taking moments i n eqn. (2.28) w i t h respect t o the o r i g i n , the balance of angular momentum is expressed by ( d / d t ) /p(xXv)dV = fp(xXf)dV + /xX(nc7)dS. (2.30). where xXv denotes vector product of x and v. The corresponding field equation states simply the symmetry of O": U= GJ (2.31) Symmetry of S may be deduced from eqns. (2.25) and (2.31).. 2.4.3 BALANCE OF ENERGY In a continuum, the first law of thermodynamics may be expressed as (d/dt) JpudV = / ( pq+a:d)dV + fhndS. (2.32;. V where u is the internal energy per unit mass q is the rate of body heat supply per unit mass h is the heat flux vector; for an oriented infinitesimal area the heat flow rate is given by H = hndS The corresponding field equation is.

(28) 28. p u = aid The term time,. aid. + pq + div(h). (2.33). r e p r e s e n t s the s t r e s s work per u n i t volume and. a and d are said to be conjugate stress and s t r a i n measures. An. a l t e r n a t i v e representation of the energy balance p r i n c i p l e. involves. the use of S and E, also conjugate:. p 0 u = S:E + p 0 q + &- d i v ( h ). (2.34). 2.5 CONSTITUTIVE RELATIONS The balance. laws. provide. a set. of. equations. which. are. not. s u f f i c i e n t to determine the behaviour of a material body. Some f u r t h e r equations are necessary, s t a t i n g the r e l a t i o n between kinematic and dynamic variables. (constitutive. equations).. Constitutive equations are based on judgement, a - p r i o r i. knowledge. of how the material behaves. However, c e r t a i n general p r i n c i p l e s must be s a t i s f i e d in t h e i r f o r m u l a t i o n . For our purpose, the most important p r i n c i p l e i s t h a t of o b j e c t i v i t y ,. which s t a t e s t h a t. constitutive. equations must be i n v a r i a n t under changes of reference frame, in order to represent the material behaviour o b j e c t i v e l y . For a homogeneous material 1981), t h a t. an o b j e c t i v e. it. may be seen ( B i l l i n g t o n and Tate,. relation. b e t w e e n Cauchy. stress. and. deformation takes the form: a = R p ( C t ( s ) , T t ( s ) ) RT. (2.35). where R is the r o t a t i o n tensor (eqn. 2.11) and T the temperature. The n o t a t i o n Ct(s) s i g n i f i e s the h i s t o r y of C (eqn. 2.12) from - o ° < s < t . Note that in general the complete h i s t o r y of the deformation C (or of E equi val e n t l y ,. eqn.. (2.17)). are r e q u i r e d ,. while. for. R only. the. instantaneous current value is used, f o r r o t a t i n g the stresses. The second Piola-Kirchhoff. stress S is objective as such (being. r e l a t e d to a f i x e d reference c o n f i g u r a t i o n ) .. In terms of. it. eqn..

(29) 29. (2.35) may be rephrased as S -. B(Ct(s),Tt(s)). (2.36). The advantage of using the 2nd P i o l a - K i r c h h o f f stress tensor for t o t a l formulations is evident (see also sect.. 3.5.1).. Some types of E l a s t i c and P l a s t i c r a t e e q u a t i o n s are discussed below. For s i m p l i c i t y , a t t e n t i o n is centred on the isothermal case.. 2.5.1 RATE EQUATIONS Materials without memory or w i t h smooth memory may be described with rate equations, e . g . a= g ( d , a , F ). (2.37). where a is a stress rate which is objective f o r r i g i d body r o t a t i o n s . The choice of o b j e c t i v e r a t e i s not u n i q u e . A v a r i e t y of o p t i o n s are a v a i l a b l e , the two most widely used being the Jaumann rate a = a + a w + wTa and the Truesdell. (2.38). rate, G = <7 - ( j l T - 1(7+ a t r ( l ). In e q u a t i o n. (2.37). a. (2.39). p r o v i d e s the c o n s t i t u t i v e. part. of. the. s t r e s s i n c r e m e n t . Eqns. (2.38) or (2.39) d e f i n e the r e m a i n i n g t e r m s t h a t must be added f o r o b j e c t i v i t y . objective. rate may be made equivalent. Formulations. based on e i t h e r. by adjusting the. constitutive. law, g. However, i f g i s p o s t u l a t e d a - p r i o r i , i n d e p e n d e n t l y of the choice of o b j e c t i v e r a t e , both f o r m u l a t i o n s give r i s e t o. different. c o n s t i t u t i v e behaviour. The need for special objective rates is avoided i f the equations are formulated in a material s e t t i n g , e . g ..

(30) 30. S = g.(E,E,S). (2.40). S is the material time rate of a tensor on the current (2nd P i o l a - K i r c h h o f f ) ,. configuration. which is already o b j e c t i v e .. 2.5.2 ELASTICITY E l a s t i c m a t e r i a l s are those f o r which a n a t u r a l ,. stress-free. state e x i s t s , to which the body returns upon removal of a l l. external. f o r c e s . The stress depends on the deformation from t h i s natural. state:. S = f(C,t). (2.41). A perfect memory of the natural s t a t e , with no memory of. intermediate. states, is e x h i b i t e d . For. linear. elasticity. and small. strains. the. relation. i s as. fol1ows: o = c:e. (2.42). er1J = c^-j e*'). (in component form. c is termed the elasticity tensor, and e is the small strain tensor:. e. iij. =. (ui,j. +u. j,i>/2. (2'43>. where u are displacements. For i s o t r o p i c m a t e r i a l s , and provided a and e are both symmetric, c must take the form c. where. ijkl. "X«ij. 5. kl. +. 2 G. 5ikSjl. (2.44).

(31) 31. 2.5.2.1 HYPERELASTIC MATERIALS The concept of H y p e r e l a s t i c i t y was introduced by Green and given i t s present name by T r u e s d e l l. (e.g. T r u e s d e l l and Toupin, 1960). I t. postulates the existence of a strain-energy. function from which the. stresses may be derived as S = ft, ( d W / d E ). (2.46). Assuming the necessary d i f f e r e n t i a b i 1 i t y , t h e e l a s t i c i t y t e n s o r i s defined as. D = P0 (d^/d^). (2.47). and a rate equation may be written as S = D:E (in component form. S. (2.48) = D\\ E. ). For a c o n s t a n t value of D, a l i n e a r h y p e r e l a s t i c t o t a l. equation. is obtained: S = D:E. (2.49). 2.5.2.2 HYPOELASTIC MATERIALS The term Hypoelastic, also introduced by Truesdell (Truesdell and Toupin, 1960), c h a r a c t e r i z e s a m a t e r i a l f o r which the behaviour i s defined. i n the c u r r e n t. configuration. by an i n c r e m e n t a l l y. linear. r e l a t i o n s h i p of the form:. 0= c:d (in component form. & 1J = c 1 J k -]d. (2.50) ). An o b j e c t i v e s t r e s s r a t e must be used f o r eqn. (2.50) (see s e c t i o n.

(32) 32. 2.5.1). Hypoelastic. behaviour is very convenient for descriptions. based. on the c u r r e n t c o n f i g u r a t i o n . M a t e r i a l data based on t r u e s t r e s s natural. strain relationships. hypoelastic. (see section 6.1) give rise n a t u r a l l y. to. interpretations.. For i s o t r o p i c materials eqn. (2.50) takes the form a. = \ t r ( d ) I + 2Gd. (in orthonormal components. (2.51). o^- = A d ^ 8^. + 2Gd^ •). 2.5.3 PLASTICITY For most s o l i d s , behaviour may be assumed e l a s t i c only w i t h i n a certain. stress. range.

(2.52). where s u p e r i n d i c e s e and p i n d i c a t e e l a s t i c and p l a s t i c components r e s p e c t i v e l y . A d d i t i v e d e c o m p o s i t i o n of s t r a i n s in t h i s fashion was proposed by H i l l. (1950). Lee (1969) has proposed a m u l t i p l i c a t i v e. decomposition of deformation gradients instead, F = Fepp, while Green and Naghdi (1965) have advocated an a d d i t i v e d e c o m p o s i t i o n of t o t a l s t r a i n , E = Ee + EP.
