Hierarchical heterogeneous one-dimensional problem in linear viscoelastic media (Q2671687): Difference between revisions

The authors discuss a one-dimensional linear viscoelastic problem and hierarchical composite material via a three-scale asymptotic homogenization method. Three distinct length scales corresponding the one-periodic micro-structure, meso-structure and the whole composite, respectively, are introduced. Continuity contact conditions at the interfaces among the constituents are considered. A comparison between the solution of the original heterogeneous problem, the homogenized problem and the formal asymptotic solution is performed. The convergence of the solutions towards the solution of the homogenized problem is investigated when the corresponding asymptotic parameters tend to zero.
