Curvature estimation for multilayer hinged structures with initial strains
نویسنده
چکیده
Closed-form estimate of curvature for hinged multilayer structures with initial strains is developed. The finite element method is used for modeling of self-positioning microstructures. The geometrically nonlinear problem with large rotations and large displacements is solved using step procedure with node coordinate update. Finite element results for curvature of the hinged micromirror with variable width is compared to closedform estimates.

متن کاملGeneralized plane strain deformation of multilayer structures with initial strains
A closed-form solution for multilayer structures with initial strains under generalized plane strain conditions is presented. Such solutions can be useful for estimating the curvature radius and strains or stresses for self-positioning microand nano-structures with lattice mismatched layers. Comparison with finite element results shows that the developed solution predicts reasonable values of t...
متن کاملProbing the Probabilistic Effects of Imperfections on the Load Carrying Capacity of Flat Double-Layer Space Structures
Load carrying capacity of flat double-layer space structures majorly depends on the structures' imperfections. Imperfections in initial curvature, length, and residual stress of members are all innately random and can affect the load-bearing capacity of the members and consequently that of the structure. The double-layer space trusses are susceptible to progressive collapse due to sudden buckli...
متن کاملMotion of three-dimensional elastic films by anisotropic surface diffusion with curvature regularization
Short time existence for a surface diffusion evolution equation with curvature regularization is proved in the context of epitaxially strained three-dimensional films. This is achieved by implementing a minimizing movement scheme, which is hinged on the H−1-gradient flow structure underpinning the evolution law. Long-time behavior and Liapunov stability in the case of initial data close to a fl...
