Advanced Constitutive Modeling

Generalized LinearViscoelastic Model:

 G (t  t c) J (t c) dt c
f

Good only for small strains, small strain-rates

strain-rate tensor

To develop constitutive equations for large strain, large strain-rate flows, the strain and strain history are important.

What is the strain measure that is used in the GLVE model?

Generalized LinearViscoelastic Model: (strain version)

 M (t  tc) J (t, tc) dtc

f

infinitesimal strain tensor

M (t  tc) {

wG(t  tc) wtc

memory function

It is the use of the infinitesimal strain tensor as the strain measure that causes the frame-variance in the GLVE model.

No stress is generated when a fluid is rotated; what does the GLVE predict?

y
y
P(t)
r cos r

P(t)

r sin

GLVE Prediction for Rigid-Body Rotation around the z-axis

W 0 0 t 2(cos\  1)  M (t  tc) 0 2(cos\  1) 0 dtc 0 0 0 xyz f

Why does GLVE make this erroneous prediction?

J (t, tc) u(t, tc)

u(t, tc)  >u(t, tc)@T

r(tc)  r(t)

Because this vector, while accounting for deformation, also accounts for changes in orientation.
