Identification in multiscale thermoelastic problems
Journal Title: Computer Assisted Methods in Engineering and Science - Year 2013, Vol 20, Issue 4
Abstract
The paper deals with the identification in multiscale analysis of structures under thermal and mechanical loads. A two-scale model of porous materials is examined. Direct thermoelastic analyses with representative volume element (RVE) and finite element method (FEM) are taken into account. Identification of material constants of the microstructure and identification of the shape of the voids in the microstructure are considered. Identification functional is formulated on the basis of information obtained from measurements in mechanical and thermal fields. Evolutionary algorithm is used for the identification as the optimization technique. Numerical examples of identification for porous aluminum models are enclosed.

Milestones of Direct Variational Calculus and its Analysis from the 17th Century until today and beyond- Mathematics meets Mechanics- with restriction to linear elasticity
This treatise collects and reflects the major developments of direct (discrete) variational calculus since the end of the 17th century until about 1990, with restriction to classical linear elastome- chanics, such as 1D-...
