A model problem for boundary layers of thin elastic shells

Philippe Karamian, Jacqueline Sanchez-Hubert, Évarisite Sanchez Palencia (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

We consider a model problem (with constant coefficients and simplified geometry) for the boundary layer phenomena which appear in thin shell theory as the relative thickness ε of the shell tends to zero. For ε = 0 our problem is parabolic, then it is a model of developpable surfaces. Boundary layers along and across the characteristic have very different structure. It also appears internal layers associated with propagations of singularities along the characteristics. The special structure of...

A nonlinear model of a turbine blade by asymptotic analysis

José Rodríguez (2002)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

In this paper we obtain a limit model for a turbine blade fixed to a 3D solid. This model is a three-dimensional linear elasticity problem in the 3D part of the piece (the rotor) and a two-dimensional problem (the nonlinear shallow shell equations) in the 2D part (the turbine blade), with junction conditions in the part of the turbine blade fixed to the rotor. To obtain this model, we perform an asymptotic analysis, starting with the nonlinear three-dimensional elasticity equations on all the pieces...

An asymptotically optimal model for isotropic heterogeneous linearly elastic plates

Ferdinando Auricchio, Carlo Lovadina, Alexandre L. Madureira (2004)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

In this paper, we derive and analyze a Reissner-Mindlin-like model for isotropic heterogeneous linearly elastic plates. The modeling procedure is based on a Hellinger-Reissner principle, which we modify to derive consistent models. Due to the material heterogeneity, the classical polynomial profiles for the plate shear stress are replaced by more sophisticated choices, that are asymptotically correct. In the homogeneous case we recover a Reissner-Mindlin model with 5 / 6 as shear correction factor....

Asymptotic Analysis of the Shape and Composition of Alloy Islands in Epitaxial Solid Films

M. Blanariu, B. J. Spencer (2008)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

We consider the formation of solid drops (“islands”) occurring in the growth of strained solid films. Beginning from a detailed model for the growth of an alloy film that incorporates the coupling between composition, elastic stress and the morphology of the free boundary, we develop an asymptotic description of the shape and compositional nonuniformity of small alloy islands grown at small deposition rates. A key feature of the analysis is a “thin domain” scaling in the island which enables recasting...
