Part 1

Background and terminology

Elasticity

An initial excuse

• One of the difficulties of the presentation of a difficult theory is that the subject will not be fully appreciated until it is studied in detail

• Difficulties of this sort are encountered frequently in teaching a mature subject

• The wholeness of the subject can rarely be communicated quickly

Material behaviour – models

• Linear elastic

• Nonlinear elastic

• Hyperelastic

• Hypoelastic

• Elastoplastic

• Creep

• Viscoplasticity

Preliminaries

• Invariants

• Strain energy

• Continuum mechanics background

Sometimes hydrostaticor spherical part of stress tensor

Brittle material which is damaged due to formation of microcracks during loading,microcracks are closed upon removal of the load

Theory of elasticity

• There is a unique relationship between stress and strain • Elastic actually means no hysteresis, it does not mean

‘linear’ or ‘force proportional to displacement’.• Could be linear or nonlinear.• Strains are said to be reversible.• Elastic material is rate independent• It is purely mechanical theory – no thermodynamic

effects – are considered.

Linear elastic model

• Good for many materials under reasonable temperatures provided that the stresses and strains are small

• Examples– Steel– Cast iron– Glass– Rock– Wood

Linear elastic model, Hooke’s law• Linear

– Strain is proportional to stress

• Homogeneous– Material properties are independent of the size of specimen

– corpuscular structure of matter is disregarded

• Anisotropic– Stress-strain coefficients in C depend on direction

• Fourth tensor C is constant and has 81 components– Generally, however, there are 21 independent elastic

constants

– Orthotropic material … 9

– Cubic anisotropy … 3

– Isotropic material … 2 (Young modulus, Poisson ratio)

For large displacements (but small strains) engineering strain (Cauchy) is replaced by Green-Lagrange strain and engineering stress is replaced by 2PK stressand TL or UL formulations should be used
