Mini Lecture „Introduction to Continuum Mechanics“ (ICOME)
Content of the (modelling/continuum approaches) Mini Lecture:
• Placement, configurations, motion, deformation map
• Deformation gradient, strain measures, polar and spectral decomposition
• Stress measures, balance equations
• Velocity, velocity gradient, rates of stress and strain
• Variation, weak form, linearization
• Exploitation of dissipation inequality, constitutive models
Objectives:
The students
• are familiar with the Lagrangian and Eulerian description of motion
• are familiar with the concept and analysis of strain
• are familiar with the concept and analysis of stress
• are familiar with various rates of stress and strain
• know how to formulate and linearize the weak form
• know how to model elementary constitutive behaviour
Prof. Steinmann will give the Mini Lecture on 4th April in Martensstraße 5a, starting at 9 am.
