Computational homogenization of fibrous piezoelectric materials
Flexible piezoelectric devices made of polymeric materials are widely used for microand nanoelectro-mechanical systems. In particular, numerous recent applications concern energy harvesting. Due to the importance of computational modeling to understand the influence that microscale geometry and constitutive variables exert on the macroscopic behavior, a numerical approach is developed here for ...

متن کاملOptimal Design in Small Amplitude Homogenization
This paper is concerned with optimal design problems with a special assumption on the coefficients of the state equation. Namely we assume that the variations of these coefficients have a small amplitude. Then, making an asymptotic expansion up to second order with respect to the aspect ratio of the coefficients allows us to greatly simplify the optimal design problem. By using the notion of H-...
متن کاملHomogenization of periodic elastic composites and locally resonant sonic materials
A method for homogenization of an elastic composite with periodic microstructure is presented, focusing on the Floquet-type elastic waves. The resulting homogenized frequency-dependent elasticity and mass density then automatically satisfy the overall conservation laws and by necessity produce the exact dispersion relations. It is also shown that the dispersion relations and the associated fiel...
متن کاملThe needle problem approach to non-periodic homogenization
We introduce a new method to homogenization of non-periodic problems and illustrate the approach with the elliptic equation −∇·(a∇u) = f . On the coefficients a we assume that solutions u of homogeneous εproblems on simplices with average slope ξ ∈ R have the property that flux-averages − ∫ a∇u ∈ R converge, for ε → 0, to some limit a∗(ξ), independent of the simplex. Under this assumption, whic...
