Mutli-scale modelling for structures and composites.

From MaRDI portal





This is a high-quality research monograph on homogenisation theory and applications to modelling of composites and periodic framework structures. The book is based on the results of the recent research, and the author is a well-recognised expert in homogenisation models in mathematical physics and continuum mechanics. The introductory part of the monograph includes the background theory, definitions and the outline of applications in mechanics. For the case of cylindrical domains, the book introduces the methods of singular perturbation analysis and the concept of boundary layer correctors that is linked to the modelling of junctions between thin rods. For the boundary value problems in thin layered structures, full asymptotic expansions of solutions are presented and limit equations for thin plates are derived. The text also includes an algorithm for calculating the effective stiffness of an elastic plate and construction of boundary layer correctors. A rigorous analysis of problems for finite rod structures includes the notion of \(L\)-convergence and addresses the existence of homogenisation approximations and the error estimates. The final chapter presents the method of multi-scale domain decomposition for framework structures. The approach involves combined 3D-1D models incorporating boundary layers in three dimensions and one-dimensional fields outside the boundary layer regions. The book is well-written and includes many good examples.
