Discrete-to-continuum limits for strain-alignment-coupled systems: Magnetostrictive solids, ferroelectric crystals and nematic elastomers
In the framework of linear elasticity, we study the limit of a class of discrete free energies modeling strain-alignment-coupled systems by a rigorous coarse-graining procedure, as the number of molecules diverges. We focus on three paradigmatic examples: magnetostrictive solids, ferroelectric crystals and nematic elastomers, obtaining in the limit three continuum models consistent with those c...
متن کاملA Structural-magnetic Strain Model for Magnetostrictive Transducers
This paper addresses the modeling of strains generated by magnetostrictive transducers in response to applied magnetic elds. The measured strains are dependent upon both the rotation of moments within the material in response to the eld and the elastic properties of the material. The magnetic behavior is characterized through the consideration of the Jiles-Atherton mean eld theory for ferromagn...
متن کاملSoft elasticity in smectic elastomers.
We investigate the soft elastic modes of smectic elastomers, that is shape change without energy cost. We use a microscopic model for their nonlinear elasticity, similar to those used for nematic elastomers. We consider two different phases of smectic elastomer; the biaxial smectic A for a simple illustration, and smectic C phases which are of great practical significance. We show that only one...
متن کاملModeling Techniques for Magnetostrictive Actuators
Techniques for modeling hysteresis and material nonlinearities in magnetostrictive materials are presented. Hys-teresis in these materials is due to both the driving magnetic eld and stress relations within the material and is signiicant throughout most of the drive range of the material. Two characterizations are presented here. The rst model is posed in terms of Preisach operators and is pure...
متن کاملInstabilities in Elastomers and in Soft Tissues
Biological soft tissues exhibit elastic properties which can be dramatically different from rubber-type materials (elastomers). To gain a better understanding of the role of constitutive relationships in determining material responses under loads we compare three different types of instabilities (two in compression, one in extension) in hyperelasticity for various forms of strain energy functio...
