A generalized Ogden-type elastically isotropic hyperelastic model including elastic-viscoplastic response (Q6040638): Difference between revisions

The authors propose a generalization of an Ogden-type model for elastically isotropic response which includes elastic-viscoplastic response. They introduce the symmetric, positive-definite unimodular elastic distortional deformation tensor \(\mathbf{B}_{\varepsilon }^{\prime }\) and the pure measure of dilatation \(J\). For elastically isotropic elastic-viscoplastic response, the strain energy is given by \(\Sigma =\Sigma (J,\alpha _{1},\alpha _{2})\), with \(\alpha _{1}=\mathbf{B}_{\varepsilon }^{\prime }\cdot \mathbf{I}\), \(\alpha _{2}=\mathbf{B}_{\varepsilon }^{\prime 2}\cdot \mathbf{I}\), where \(\mathbf{I}\)\textbf{\ }is the second-order identity tensor. Let \(\mathbf{x}\) be the current position of a material point at time \(t\), its velocity \(\mathbf{v}\), velocity gradient \(\mathbf{L}\) and rate of deformation tensor \(\mathbf{D}\) are given by: \(\mathbf{v}=\overset{.}{ \mathbf{x}}\), \(\mathbf{L}=\partial \mathbf{v}/\partial \mathbf{x}\), \(\mathbf{ D}=\frac{1}{2}(\mathbf{L}+\mathbf{L}^{T})\). In the proposed model, the evolution equations for \(J\) and \(\mathbf{B}_{\varepsilon }^{\prime }\) are given by \(\frac{\overset{.}{J} }{J}=\mathbf{D}\cdot \mathbf{I}\), \(\overset{.}{\mathbf{B}}_{\varepsilon }^{\prime }=\mathbf{L}^{\prime \prime }\mathbf{B}_{\varepsilon }^{\prime }+ \mathbf{B}_{\varepsilon }^{\prime }\mathbf{L}^{\prime \prime T}-\Gamma \mathbf{A}_{p}\), \(\mathbf{A}_{p}=\mathbf{B}_{\varepsilon }^{\prime }-\frac{3 }{\mathbf{B}_{\varepsilon }^{\prime -1}\cdot \mathbf{I}}\mathbf{I}\), \( A_{p}\cdot \mathbf{B}_{\varepsilon }^{\prime -1}=0\), where the deviatoric part \(\mathbf{L}^{\prime \prime }\) of \(\mathbf{L}\) is defined by \(\mathbf{L} ^{\prime \prime }=\mathbf{L}-\frac{1}{3}(\mathbf{L}\cdot \mathbf{I})\mathbf{I }\), \(\Gamma \geq 0\) controls the rate of inelasticity, \(\mathbf{A}_{p}\) controls its direction and satisfies the restriction which ensures that \( \mathbf{B}_{\varepsilon }^{\prime }\) remains unimodular. The authors derive equations for \(\alpha _{1}\) and \(\alpha _{2}\), then expressions for the Cauchy stress tensor and its deviatoric part. They further give expressions of the tensor \(\mathbf{B}_{\varepsilon }^{\prime \prime }\) in terms of the Lode angle. In the last part of their paper, the authors present and analyze examples of such situations where the strain energy function is specified by an Ogden-like form: a simple shear in the \(e_{1}\)-\(e_{2}\) plane and shear in three initially orthogonal planes. They draw figures which illustrate the sharp transitions of the elastic distortional stretches and Lode angle.
