The first constitutive equation (constitutive law) was developed by Robert Hooke and is known as Hooke's law.It deals with the case of linear elastic materials.Following this discovery, this type of equation, often called a "stress-strain relation" in this example, but also called a "constitutive assumption" or an "equation of state" was commonly used.
The concept of a continuum underlies the mathematical framework for studying large-scale forces and deformations in materials. Although materials are composed of discrete atoms and molecules, separated by empty space or microscopic cracks and crystallographic defects, physical phenomena can often be modeled by considering a substance distributed throughout some region of space.
The phenomenological equation which describes Harper–Dorn creep is = where ρ 0 is dislocation density (constant for Harper–Dorn creep), D v is the diffusivity through the volume of the material, G is the shear modulus and b is the Burgers vector, σ s, and n is the stress exponent which varies between 1 and 3.
L. M. Kachanov [5] and Y. N. Rabotnov [6] suggested the following evolution equations for the creep strain ε and a lumped damage state variable ω: ˙ = ˙ ˙ = ˙ where ˙ is the creep strain rate, ˙ is the creep-rate multiplier, is the applied stress, is the creep stress exponent of the material of interest, ˙ is the rate of damage accumulation, ˙ is the damage-rate multiplier, and is ...
F.R. Larson and J. Miller proposed that creep rate could adequately be described by the Arrhenius type equation: r = A ⋅ e − Δ H / ( R ⋅ T ) {\displaystyle r=A\cdot e^{-\Delta H/(R\cdot T)}} Where r is the creep process rate, A is a constant, R is the universal gas constant , T is the absolute temperature , and Δ H {\displaystyle \Delta ...
The constitutive relation is expressed as a linear first-order differential equation: = + ˙ This model represents a solid undergoing reversible, viscoelastic strain. Upon application of a constant stress, the material deforms at a decreasing rate, asymptotically approaching the steady-state strain.
The material point method (MPM) is a numerical technique used to simulate the behavior of solids, liquids, gases, and any other continuum material. Especially, it is a robust spatial discretization method for simulating multi-phase (solid-fluid-gas) interactions.
The difference in this equation from classical Chapman–Enskog theory lies in the streaming operator , within which the velocity distribution of the two particles are evaluated at different points in space, separated by , where is the unit vector along the line connecting the two particles centre of mass.
