1 2 Kinematics of Deformation In this chapter we briefly summarize the fundamental relations of the kinematics of large deformations, restricting ourselves to the applications we have in mind. For concise treatments we advise the literature on continuum mechanics, e.g., the monographs of Altenbach [AA95], Becker and Bürger [BB75], Betten [Bet93], Chadwick [Cha76], Gurtin [Gur81], Malvern [Mal69], Truesdell and Noll [TN65] as well as the recent works of Bertram [Ber05], Haupt [Hau02] and Holzapfel [Hol00]. Our description here focuses at first on elastic bodies, Figure 2.1. For continuum-mechanical description a body is a set whose elements are in one-to-one correspondence with points of a region B IR 3 and we partition its boundary S = B into two parts, S = S 1 S 2, where displacements are prescribed or traction is applied, respectively, S 1 S 2 = 0. Moreover, the body is of a size which allows to neglect its microscopic composition. Elasticity means that all the processes under consideration are reversible. Consequently, elastic materials show no internal processes, no time dependence, no hysteresis and no dissipation. Note that elasticity as it is defined here does not mean linearity 1. Elastic materials can be Figure 2.1: Solid body B. nonlinear because of large deformations as well as of nonlinear material laws, and, on the other hand linear materials can be inelastic, e.g. viscoelastic. Inelastic materials are topic of subsequent chapters. 2.1 Deformation and motion Let us consider a body whose particles occupy a region B IR 3 in a certain reference placement. We label the material particles P B by their position vectors XP. Without loss of generality these position vectors may be defined by their components 1 Note that the definition of elasticity may differ in literature. 1

2 2.1 Deformation and motion G. L. Lagrange B ϕ B Quo vadis? Figure 2.2: Lagrangian point of view: x = ϕ X {X 1,X 2,X 3 } relative to some coordinate system with orthonormal basis E 1,E 2,E 3 centered at some convenient origin O, X = X i E i. We will refer to this reference system as the material reference frame and to components relative to this frame as material or Lagrangian coordinates. The reference placement is commonly but not necessarily identified with the initial, undeformed placement of the body, see Figure 2.2. The body B subsequently deforms and moves over a period of time t IR +. A deformation of a body B is an injective mapping ϕ : B IR 3. The condition that the deformation mapping ϕ defines an injective function excludes deformation involving tearing and interpenetration of matter of the body. The region ϕb is the current or deformed placement of the body. The material point P ϕb is labelled now by a position vector xp. The components {x 1,x 2,x 3 } of the position vector are relative to a coordinate system with orthonormal basis e 1,e 2,e 3 centered at o, x = x i e i. We will refer to this placement as the spatial reference frame. The components relative to this frame are spatial or Eulerian coordinates, see Figure 2.3. In the following we presume the origins O, o and the basis vectors of material and spacial frame to coincide, i.e., the basis E i is identical to e i. We refer to tensorial quantities in the reference placement by using uppercase letters, whereas the current placement is denoted by lowercase letters. To reduce conflicts in notation we employ a subscript 0 for some quantities when they refer to the initial reference placement and omit the subscript in the current placement. Moreover, we identify the material particles P B 2

3 2.1 Deformation and motion B ϕ B L. Euler Ex quo venis? Figure 2.3: Eulerian point of view X = ϕ 1 x by their position vectors XP and xp, respectively. In coordinates, the deformation mapping takes the form x i = ϕ i X, X B. 2.1 Since, by assumption, ϕ is injective, the inverse deformation mapping ϕ 1 : ϕb B is well defined. Unlike to small strain approaches the total deformation of a body can not be understood as a superposition of displacement vector fields. To illustrate this, let ϕ 1 : B IR 3 and ϕ 2 : B IR 3 be two successive deformations of the body B, see Figure 2.4. The total or combined deformation of the body is ϕ = ϕ 2 ϕ1,t ϕ2 ϕ where denotes the composition. Evidently, the total deformation follows by a composition of mappings. The composition of deformation mappings has a multiplicative group structure [MH83]. A motion of a body during a time interval [t 1,t 2 ] is a function ϕ : B [t 1,t 2 ] IR 3 such that the mappings ϕ,t, t [t 1,t 2 ], are injective. In other words, a motion defines a one parametric sequence of deformation mappings indexed by the time, x = ϕ t X = ϕ. This describes for every material point P B a path or trajectory in IR 3. 3

4 2.1 Deformation and motion ϕ 1 ϕ 2 B ϕ 1 B ϕ 2 ϕ1 B ϕ = ϕ 2 ϕ 1 Figure 2.4: Composition of deformations. To describe the motion of a particle we may distinguish between a spatial or direct motion and a material or inverse motion problem. The direct motion problem bases on the idea of following material particles from a fixed position X along their trajectories through the ambient space. Because attention is paid to the particles we observe what happens to the particles when they move, this point of view is denoted as the material or Lagrangian setting. In contrast to this, within the inverse motion problem physical particles are followed through the ambient material at a fixed spatial position x. The observer takes the spatial or Eulerian point of view. The displacement field U of a particle relates its position in the undeformed placement to its position in the deformed placement at instance t. In the Lagrangian setting we write U = x X, 2.3 whereas the Eulerian form of equation2.3 reads ux,t = x Xx,t. 2.4 Both settings are related by the inverse deformation mapping, U = U ϕ 1 x,t = ux,t. 2.5 The instantaneous velocity of a material point is the material or Lagrangian velocity field V = ϕ i. 2.6 t On the other hand, in the Eulerian setting the velocity follows by a composition of material velocity and the inverse deformation mapping. Thus, the velocity at a spacial position is described by the spacial or Eulerian velocity field vx,t = V ϕ,t = ϕ ϕ 1 x,t,t = V ϕ 1 x,t. 2.7 t 4

5 2.2 Kinematics of local deformations Analogously, the instantaneous acceleration of the material point X at time t is represented by the material or Lagrangian acceleration field A = V t. 2.8 The spacial or Eulerian acceleration field represents the acceleration of the material point occupying the spatial position x at time t. ax,t = A ϕ,t = V t ϕ 1 x,t,t = A ϕ 1 x,t 2.9 The material time-derivative 2.9 of a smooth spatial vector field vx, t may be evaluated to give ax,t = vx,t t + gradvx,t vx,t Evidently material time derivative ax, t = vx, t is distinct from a normal timederivative because of its structure. The first term in equation2.10 describes the local acceleration i.e., the local rate of change in the velocity field, the second term describes a convective acceleration field. It plays an important role in fluid mechanics, because by equation 2.10 the spatial acceleration can be determined without knowing the motion explicitly. In solid mechanics the constitutive behavior of materials is commonly given in terms of material coordinates. This motivates us to restrict our attention in the following to the direct motion problem formulated in the Lagrangian setting. However, we keep in mind that the kinematic equations in the direct and in the inverse motion problem are in correspondence to each other. 2.2 Kinematics of local deformations To measures the local deformation in a material we presume the principle of local action to be valid. This principle states that the internal energy density of a material point X B depends only on the local state of a infinitesimal material neighborhood containing the point. Let dv 0 B be the volume of an infinitesimal material neighborhood of point X B and let dv be the volume of the corresponding infinitesimal spatial neighborhood. Consider now a material point at position X B and let X + dx be a neighboring material 5

6 2.2 Kinematics of local deformations X + dx 01 x dv0 X 01 ϕ x + dx dv Figure 2.5: Local deformation of a material neighborhood. point within dv 0. The corresponding spatial point be x + dx, see Figure 2.5. With deformation 2.1 we know for the components of x + dx, x i + dx i = ϕ i X + d, 2.11 which may be expanded in a Taylor series 2 at position X to give ϕ i X + d = ϕi + ϕ i X J dxj + odx The expression odx denotes terms of higher order that tend to zero faster than dx. Neglecting these terms we obtain from 2.12 the linearized differential relation x i + dx i x i + ϕ i X J dxj dx i = ϕ i X J dxj 2.13 and we define the deformation gradient F with components F ij = ϕ i X J dx i = F ij dxj 2.14 The deformation gradient F is fundamental in non-linear continuum mechanics. It is a primary measure of deformation. The quantity provides a full determination of the deformation mapping at time t on an infinitesimal material neighborhood dx of X. The deformation gradient is a linear operator by definition. Therefore, FX, t may be regarded a member of the linear space of all linear transformations into IR 3 3, i.e., GL3, IR. 2 Taylor expansion for fx at position x 0 : fx = fx 0 + f x 0 x x 0 + high order terms 6

7 2.2 Kinematics of local deformations Consider now an infinitesimal material neighborhood X + dx of volume dv 0, which is given by the parallelepipedic product dv 0 = dx 1 dx 2 dx 3. Let dv be the volume of the corresponding spatial neighborhood at time t and write dv = dx 1 dx 2 dx 3 = F 1i dx 1 i F 2i dx 2 i = detf dx 1 dx 2 dx 3 = detfdv 0. Consequently, the following relation holds where F3i dx 3 i 2.15 dv dv 0 = J, 2.16 J = det F 2.17 is the Jacobian of the deformation. Evidently, the Jacobian J provides a measure of the local volumetric deformation. From the inverse mapping theorem follows that the deformation mapping is locally one-to-one at X and time t if and only if J > Therefore, we may interpret this condition as a local invertibility condition. Note that conditions for global invertibility are considerably harder to define. The following transformation relates elements of oriented area in the undeformed and deformed placements. Let ds B denote an infinitesimal surface area containing X with the corresponding outward unit normal N, see Figure 2.6. Let ds be the deformed area on ϕs,t and n its corresponding outward unit normal. Then, for the components of the outward unit normal holds N ds n i ds = JF 1 Ji N JdS Figure 2.6: Oriented area. This relation is known as Nanson s formula and may easily be verified by equation 2.16 and dv = dx nds = JdV 0 = JdX N ds. Shortly we may write nds = JF T N ds To illustrate the composition of deformations let ϕ 1 : B IR 3 and ϕ 2 : B IR 3 be two successive deformations of B, cf. Figure 2.4. Let F 1 and F 2 be the 7

8 2.3 Decomposition of deformations corresponding deformation gradients at material point X and time t. Then, the total or combined local deformation gradient follows by multiplication of the incremental deformation gradients F = F 2 ϕ1,t F Composition rule 2.21 together with the invertibility condition 2.18 confers the set of all admissible deformation gradients a multiplicative group structure. It may be identified with a subgroup of the general linear group of orientation-preserving transformations GL + 3, IR = {F GL3, IR, detf > 0}. 2.3 Decomposition of deformations The deformation gradient F contains the full information about the linearized deformation ϕ at a local material point but is a two-point tensor, i.e., it works between current and reference placement. Strain measures are required to refer to either the reference or the current placement and, moreover, to be not affected by rigid body rotations. In this section we will extract the information of interest out of the deformation gradient and, then, introduce some common strain tensors. The natural way of splitting the deformation gradient into different parts is, because of its multiplicative group structure, a multiplicative decomposition. Let F by a given state of deformation. Let one part of the full deformation be associated with reason A e.g., volume preserving deformation or irreversible stretching and another part be related to reason B e.g., pressure induced dilatation or purely elastic stretching. Then, the decomposition of the deformation gradient reads 3 This type of decomposition goes back to Lee [Lee69]. F = F B F A In that sense we separate the straining from the rigid rotation at a material point and employ the polar decomposition. Any deformation gradient F factors as the product with 3 For brevity we omit in this section the arguments of F. F = R U, 2.23 U = U 2.24 R 1 = R

9 2.3 Decomposition of deformations The positive definite tensor U is the right stretch tensor, the orthogonal tensor R describes a rotation. Tensor R may be regarded as a member of the group of rotations SO3, where SO3 is the Lie-group {R IR 3 3,R T R = I, det R = 1}. The polar decomposition is always unique. The proof is easily done by contradiction, see, e.g. [Ber05]. F = R U F = V R Figure 2.7: Illustration of the polar decomposition. The eigenvalues of the stretch tensor U, denoted as λ α, α = 1, 2, 3, fulfill the relation U N α = λ α N α with N α = The real and positive eigenvalues λ α represent the principal stretches of the deformation, whereas the orthonormal eigenvectors N α are the principal referential axis, i.e., the principal directions in the reference placement. There exists also a unique left polar decomposition of the form where again R SO3 and with stretch tensor F = V R, 2.27 V = V

10 2.3 Decomposition of deformations orthogonal to U. The eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the left stretch tensor V, are V n α = λ α n α with n α = The eigenvalues λ α represent here the principal stretches in the current placement and the orthonormal eigenvectors n α are the corresponding principal directions. In other words, the eigenvectors of V are those of U rotated by R, n α = R N α. To illustrate the nature of rotation R let us write the spectral decomposition of 2.24 and U = V = 3 λ αn α N α, 2.30 α=1 3 λ α n α n α α=1 Then, rotation tensor R may be decomposed as R = 3 n α N α α=1 Another useful decomposition of the deformation gradient F separates the deformation along a tangential plane from the deformation normal to that plane; F = F F, 2.33 where F denotes the in-plane part of the deformation gradient or membrane deformation and F the out-of-plane part of the deformation gradient or transversal deformation. The in-plane part satisfies the identity F N = N, 2.34 where N is the unit normal to the tangential plane in the reference placement. With a vector a IR 3 and by Hadamard s compatibility condition see, e.g. [Tho57], the out-of-plane part of the deformation gradient has the form F = I + a N

11 2.4 Strain measures 2.4 Strain measures The crucial demand on any strain measure is its ability to represent strain but to vanish for rigid body rotations. This in turn requires symmetry of the strain tensors. Thus, the right Cauchy-Green tensor is defined by C = F F 2.36 = U U = U 2, The six independent components of tensor C, C JL = F Ji F il, refer to the reference placement and can uniquely be determine by the nine components of F but not visa versa. The Green-Lagrange strain tensor E = 1 2 F F I 2.37 has additionally the property to be zero in all components in case of no deformation. Frequently used is the logarithmic strain which is also known as Henky strain tensor 4 ǫ = 1 log C H = log U Analogously the left Cauchy-Green tensor or Finger tensor is defined by b = F F 2.40 = V V = V 2 = R C and the Euler-Almansi strain tensor is e = 1 I b 1 = 1 I F F 1, which both refer to the current placement. In linear theory small deformations are presumed. Consequently, reference and current placement coincide. Strains are small enough that a linearized strain measure accurately approximates the more rigorous nonlinear measures. This condition is fulfilled in virtually all solid materials under sufficiently small loads. By linearization of 2.37 or 2.41 we get the infinitesimal strain tensor as ǫ = 1 2 gradu + gradu To distinguish the logarithmic strain and the infinitesimal strain we denote here the first by H but we will go back later to use definition

12 2.4 Strain measures Remark The following general formula may illustrate the different strain measures for the simple case of uniaxial deformation. Let λ denote the ratio of current to initial length of the specimen and let the only nonzero entry in the strain tensors be ε. Now we write following Seth [Set64], see also [Ber05, SH00] ε = 1 α 1 λ α Then, assuming various values of constant α we obtain: α = 2 ε = 2 1 λ 2 1 ε [ 1, ] Green-Lagrange strain 2 α = 1 ε = λ 1 ε [ 1, ] infinitesimal strain α = 0 ε = logλ ε [, ] logarithmic strain α = 2 ε = λ 2 ε [, 1 ] Euler-Almansi strain 2 E ǫ H The first three measures are plotted in Figure 2.8 and we observe a very different behavior at large strains. A strain measuring function f : IR IR is called additively symmetric with respect to lengthening and shortening if holds f 1 = f λ λ Figure 2.8: Strain measures. Among the four strain measures only the uniaxial logarithmic strain satisfies the requirement. Note that the stretch λ itself is multiplicatively symmetric with respect to lengthening and shortening but not additively. Moreover there exists other valid strain measures with no symmetry at all [TT60]. So it is up to the reader to decide whether satisfying 2.44 makes the logarithmic strain 2.38 a better measure. 12

13 2.5 Strain rates 2.5 Strain rates To finally determine a rate of deformation measure we note the velocity gradient l = v x The velocity appears here as a function of time for a given particle at X. The velocity gradient 2.45 may be evaluated in terms of the deformation gradient as l = Ḟ F The rate-of-deformation tensor is now defined as the symmetric part of tensor l d = 1 2 l + l, 2.47 whereas the antisymmetric part of l is known as spin tensor. w = 1 2 l l, 2.48 The rate-of-deformation tensor measures the rate of change of the square of the length of material line segments dx. However, in general, the integral of the rate-of-deformation does not vanish in a reversible cycle of deformation. Consequently, the rate-of-deformation tensor is path-dependent. Although it is commonly used the rate-of-deformation 2.47 is not necessarily a physical meaningful measure of deformation. 2.6 Examples Kinematic equations for some simple deformations are summarized here for later reference. At first we consider homogeneous deformations, i.e., deformations with constant affine boundary conditions. In a homogeneous state of deformation the gradient F is independent of the position of the material point X or x, respectively, and, in consequence, we can derive one deformation gradient F GL + 3, IR which is valid for all points of the body B. To write down the components of F explicitly, we presume volume preserving deformations with det F = 1. 13

14 2.6 Examples X 1 R x 1 ϕ r L l Figure 2.9: Uniaxial tension of a rod made of an incompressible material. Uniaxial tension. A rod with circular or quadratic cross section is pulled from initial length L to current length l, see Figure 2.9. The deformation gradient F = x/ X in this uniaxial case reads l/l 0 0 F = 0 r/r 0, r/r with initial and current radius R and r, respectively. We define now the axial stretch ratio λ = l/l and assume the material of the rod to be incompressible. From the preserved volume of the deformation follows πr 2 L = πr 2 l, 2.50 and for the transverse stretch ratio we can write l R 2 L = = λ r The deformation gradient F now follows as λ 0 0 F = 0 1/ λ / λ Note that for a compressible material with Poisson modulus ν and with small-strain kinematics 2.42 the deformation gradient can be evaluated from linear theory and expression νε 0 0 F = 0 1 νε ε 14

15 2.6 Examples ϕ A R a r Figure 2.10: Void expansion in an incompressible body. Here we employ ε in its common uniaxial definition ε = l L. Note that this relation L yields in the incompressible limit to 1 νε = 1 1ε = λ which is the linearization of the function 1/ λ. Expansion of a void in an infinite body. A spherical void with initial radius A is expanding to current radius a. Material spheres surrounding the void with radii R and r, respectively, deform with the body. From the volume constraint follows 4π 3 R3 A 3 = 4π 3 r3 a 3, 2.54 and, consequently, the deformation mapping r = ϕr reads r = a 3 A 3 + R 3 1/ Clearly, this deformation is not homogeneous but for any point located on the void surface we can compute the deformation gradient as a/a 0 0 F = 0 a/a a/a 15
