PREFACE. Rod structures are widely used in modern engineering. These are bars, beams, frames and trusses of structures, gridwork, network, framework and other constructions. A variety of theories based on the Kirchhoff-Love, KirchhoffClebsch and other hypotheses are applied for their analysis. Structural mechanics software based on material strength theory methods also exists. At the same time the questions concerning the limits of applicability of these hypotheses and theories and the possibilities of their refinement are very important. In this connection we develop the multi-scale asymptotic analysis of equations of mathematical physics, and in particular the elasticity equations of set in the rod structures (without these hypotheses and simplifying assumptions being imposed) . Problems with one small parameter (the ratio of bar diameter to its length) as well as problems with two and more small parameters (periodic framework systems, where the second parameter represents the ratio of a period to the characteristic space dimension of the problem, weakly compressible bars, etc.) are studied. The homogenization technique for partial differential equations described in the book by N.Bakhvalov and G.Panasenko [16] and the boundary layer techniques are used as a main tool in these investigations. The physical processes are simulated by partial differential equations set in ”thin” domains containing a small parameter. The asymptotic analysis is applied for investigation of these partial differential equations. The multi-scale models are developed according to two main schemes: - the up-scaling procedure of asymptotic derivation of macroscopic models from the microscopic ones (ie., the homogenization approach) and - the hybrid multi-scale models, combining two scales inside one model, making a microscopic zoom inside the macroscopic model (ie., the asymptotic partial domain decomposition, partial homogenization). The present monograph consists of six chapters. The first chapter is introductory. It presents the main notions and methods of the book, advantages and disadvantages of these methods. In the second chapter we consider the three-dimensional conductivity problem as well as theory for elasticity problems and other equations of mathematical physics in a thin cylindrical domain (bar) with non-homogeneous structure. Full asymptotic expansions of solutions are constructed for the small parameter equal to the ratio of the bar diameter to the length; boundary layers are investigated and one-dimensional equations for bars are derived. Then we consider the problem of junction of two heterogeneous rods. The connection conditions for rods result from the analysis of boundary layers arising in the neighborhood of the bounds of the rods. Time dependent models are considered. The third chapter is devoted to the similar analysis of a heterogeneous layer (plate). Full asymptotic expansions of solutions are constructed for the small parameter equal to the ratio of the plate thickness to the length of the plate; boundary layers are studied and two-dimensional equations for plates are deIX

X rived. Similar questions for systems with finite number of bars are studied in the Chapter 4. The asymptotic analysis of a structure with finite number of bars is developed first for nonlinear equations in some weak norms (L-convergence method), and then the detailed asymptotic analysis is done, the asymptotic expansions of solutions are constructed. The Korn inequality or, more specifically, the investigation of how the constant depends on the small parameters in this inequality is essential for the justification. Finally the results obtained by means of L-convergence method are applied to shape design of finite rod structures. The code OPTIFOR implements this algorithm. We discuss some model examples. The similar analysis is developed for some problems of flow in a system of tubes described by Stokes and Navier-Stokes equations. In Chapter 5, periodic framework structures (lattice-like domains) are considered and their homogenization is carried out, i.e., systems with great number of bars are investigated. The question of the existence of homogenized models and the convergence of the exact solutions to them is studied. In some cases the first approximation of the asymptotic theory may be also obtained by means of classical structural mechanics. At the same time, the asymptotic theory gives the opportunity to obtain corrections to the structural mechanics models. It is possible to obtain analytical formulas for these corrections in some examples. Chapter 6 is devoted to a new multi-scale method of solution of different problems with small parameter. It is the method of asymptotic domain decomposition. The direct numerical solution of partial derivative equations in finite rod structures is very expensive because the complicated geometry demands a large number of nodes in the grid. The complete asymptotic expansions are often cumbersome. So we propose a hybrid numerical-asymptotic method which uses a combined 3D-1D models: it is three-dimensional in the boundary layer domain and it is one-dimensional outside of the boundary layer domain. We cut the rods at some distance from the ends of the rods, we keep the dimension three in the neighborhood of the ends and we reduce dimension on the truncated (main) part of rods. So the principal idea of the method is to extract the subdomain of singular behavior of the solution and to reduce dimension of the problem in the subdomain of regular behavior of the solution. Of course the most important question is: what are the interface conditions between 3D and 1D parts? We formulate two approaches of construction of such hybrid models and justify the closeness of the partially decomposed model and initial model. We analyze such hybrid models for conductivity and elasticity equations stated in rod structures as well as Stokes and Navier-Stokes equations stated in a system of thin tubes. We consider below two versions of the method of asymptotic partial decomposition of domain. The first version is ”differential”, i.e. we work with the differential formulation of the initial problem , we obtain the 1D differential equation in the reduced part of the rod structure and we add the differential interface conditions on the boundary between 3D and 1D parts . Of course we can pass to a variational formulation of the partially decomposed problem but it is generated by a differential one.

XI The second version is a direct variational approach, when the 3D integral identity for the original problem is restated for a special subspace of functions having a form of the ansatz of the asymptotic solution in the regular thin part of the rod structure. We give some examples of application of this method. As a rule the results are presented in the form of theorems. The obtained asymptotic approximations are justified: estimates of their closeness to exact solutions are proved. The book is destined to graduate and postgraduate students, specialists in applied mathematics, specialists in mechanics, engineers, university professors. It is partially based on courses of lectures delivered by the author at the Department of Mechanics and Mathematics at Moscow State University Lomonossov and at the Mathematical Department of the University Jean Monnet (Saint Etienne, France). Knowledge acquired after the first three years of advanced mathematical training at a college or university is sufficient to read the most of the book. Presentation of the material is based on the principle ”from simple to complicated,” every chapter beginning with an elementary example to illustrate the main idea of the method to be described.

Introduction: Basic Notions and Methods 1.1

What is an inhomogeneous rod?

We define an inhomogeneous rod as a long cylinder constituted of a unidirectional chain of recurrent elements (cells). Each cell consists of some subdomains occupied by different materials: the inclusions of one compound and the matrix of another compound which fills the space between the inclusions . The dimensions of the cell are of the same order as the diameters of the subdomains. Let L be the length of the rod and µ the length of the recurrent cell. We assume that the diameter of the cross section of the cylinder is of the same order as the length of the recurrent cell and that µ 0),

f0 = f.

Thus the construction of the formal asymptotic solution by means of the homogenization method (N. Bakhvalov’s version) consists in substituting series (2.1.2) into equation (2.1.1), collecting similar terms, and putting the rapidly

oscillating coefficients Hi (ξ) of the derivations Di v equal to constants hi . These constants are determined from the problems that give the solvability conditions for Ni . In the monograph by N. Bakhvalov and G. Panasenko [16], the justification of the formalism presented above is carried out and estimates for the difference between the partial sums of the series (2.1.2) and the exact solution are obtained for the case in which (2.1.1) is an elliptic equation or the system of equations of elasticity theory.

2.1.6

Boundary layer correctors to homogenization in IRs

The formal asymptotic solution for the simplest boundary value problem was first constructed by the author [132],[133] (see also [16],[100]). Consider equation (2.1.1) in the layer x1 ∈ (0, b), where b/ε is a positive integer and b is a number of the order of 1. Let the boundary conditions

u = g0 (x′ ), u = g1 (x′ ) (2.1.47) x1 =0

x1 =b

be set. Here and below for any s-dimensional vector a we set a′ = (a2 , . . . , as )∗ , i.e. a′ is a column vector comprising all components of a except for the first component. Suppose that the right-hand sides f , g0 , and g1 are T -periodic with respect to their arguments (T is a number of the order of 1 such that T /ε is a positive integer). The solution is also sought in the class of T -periodic functions of x2 , . . . , xs . The formal asymptotic solution to problem (2.1.1), (2.1.47) is sought in the form of Bakhvalov’s series uB with the corrector u0p + u1p of boundary-layer type, u(∞) = uB + u0p + u1p ,

Ni (ξ) and Hi (ξ) are the 1-periodic functions constructed above, and Nir (ξ) and Hir (ξ) are 1-periodic functions of ξ2 , . . . , ξs exponentially stabilizing to zero as ξ1 → ±∞ (+ for r = 0, − for r = 1). Here Hir (ξ) = Lξξ Nir1 ...il +

one can reduce (24) to the form Hir (ξ) = Lξξ Nir + Tir (ξ). Let us arrange Nir in a sequence as was done above for Ni . Namely, let r Ni ≻ Njr whenever |i| > |j|. Note that Tir is defined by the functions Njr with priority |j| < |i|. This condition may be used for the recurrent definition of Nir ¯i (0, ξ ′ ), in terms of Njr with lower priority if certain requirements on Hir (ξ), N ′ ¯ and Ni (b/ε, ξ ) are imposed. ¯i (0, ξ ′ ) = const, and N ¯i (b/ε, ξ ′ ) = const. Note Let Hir (ξ) = 0, r = 0, 1, N that, according to the construction of the previous subsection, Hi (ξ) = hi = ¯i (0, ξ ′ ) by h0 and N ¯i (b/ε, ξ ′ ) by h1 . If N r and hr const. Denote the constants N i i i i satisfying these conditions are found, then problem (2.1.51)–(2.1.53) is reduced to the following problem with constant coefficients for v: ∞

This problem can be solved by the standard technique of expanding v into a regular series (2.1.41). This again gives (2.1.46) for vq with the boundary conditions

h0∅ vq x =0 = g0q (x′ ), h1∅ vq x =b = g1q (x′ ), (2.1.58) 1 1

q where gr0 = gr , grq = − l=1 |i|=l hri Di vq−l x1 =0,b (q > 0). Hence, in order to construct the formal asymptotic solution to the original problem, we only need to construct functions Nir and constants hri satisfying the equations Hir (ξ) = 0, r = 1, 2, ¯i (0, ξ ′ ) = h0i + O(e−c/ε ), N ¯i b , ξ ′ = h1i + O(e−c/ε ), N ε where c is a positive constant. The functions Nir and the constants hri are constructed by induction. Namely, we set N∅r = 0 and hr∅ = 1 or I in the vectorial case. Let all Nir of priority |i| ≤ k be found. Let us define Tir (ξ) for all i with |i| = k + 1. Choose a constant h0i (|i| = k + 1) such that the 1-periodic in ξ2 , . . . , ξs solution to the problem

(2.1.61) (2.1.62)

exponentially tending to zero as ξ1 → −∞, exists (the possibility of such a choice is assumed). The possibility of such a choice in the case of the elliptic equation is proved [89], [90], and for the system of equations of elasticity theory this is proved in [129], [130]. Note that Ni (0, ξ ′ ) = Ni (b/ε, ξ ′ ), since b/ε is an integer and Ni is 1-periodic in ξ1 . In this connection, condition (2.1.62) is equivalent to the condition b Ni1 (0, ξ ′ ) = −N Ni , ξ ′ + h1i . ε

To determine the constants h0i , we first solve the problem i0 + Ti0 (ξ) = 0, Lξξ N

HOMOGENIZATION

is the solution to problem (2.1.59), (2.1.60). Problem (2.1.61), (2.1.62) can be solved in a similar manner. The induction step is complete. Remark 2.1.2. By construction, we obtain u(∞) asymptotically satisfying equation (2.1.1). At the same time, the boundary conditions are satisfied asymptotically not for u(∞) , but for uB + u0p at the left end and for uB + u1p at the right end. But in view of the exponential decay of Nir (ξ) for any N we have

(u(∞) − uB − u0p ) x =0 = u1p x =0 = O(εN ) 1

and similarly

1

(u(∞) − uB − u1p ) x =b = u0p x =b = O(εN ). 1 1

Thus, u(∞) is a formal asymptotic solution to problem (2.1.1), (2.1.47). The justification of the presented formalism is carried out in [16]. Remark 2.1.3. (On the justification procedure). In this section 2.1 we have constructed several asymptotic solutions to some problems depending on small parameter ε. It means that having a problem Lε uε = fε

(2.1.63)

stated for an unknown function uε with an ε−dependent linear operator Lε and right hand side fε (which stands for the data of this problem), we have (K) constructed (instead of this unknown uε ) an asymptotic approximation uε (K) such that it satisfies (2.1.63) with some remainder rε of order O(εK ), i.e. (K) K rε Hd = O(ε ). Here Lε : Hs → Hd , Hs , Hd are some normed spaces. It means that Lε uε = fε + rε(K) . (2.1.64) Assume that for any fε ∈ Hd problem (2.1.63) has a unique solution and that an a priori estimate holds: uε Hs ≤ Cffε Hd

(2.1.65)

with a constant C independent of fε and ε. Then subtracting (2.1.63) from (2.1.64) and applying estimate (2.1.65) to (K) (K) (K) the difference uε − uε (that is a solution to equation Lε (uε − uε ) = rε ) we get u(K) − uε Hs ≤ Crε(K) Hd , ε i.e., u(K) − uε Hs = O(εK ). ε

(2.1.66)

This is the main idea of justifications of asymptotic procedures in this book. Sometimes the constant C in (2.1.65) depends on ε in such a way that there exists α > 0 such that C ≤ C0 varepsilon−α where C0 does not depend on ε. Then we get

36


− uε Hs = O(εK−α ). u(K) ε

(2.1.66′ )

instead of (2.1.66). If estimate (2.1.66) holds true for any K and α is a positive integer number and if K u(K+α) − u(K) ε ε Hs = O(ε ),

then estimate (2.1.66’) can be improved. Indeed from (2.1.66) for K + α we get u(K+α) − uε Hs = O(εK ). ε

(2.1.68)

Comparing (2.1.67) to (2.1.68)and applying the triangular inequality we get estimate (2.1.66). If Lε is not linear then we must try to prove that for any f1ε , f2ε ∈ Hd problems Lε uiε = fiε , i = 1, 2, have a unique solution and that there exists a constant C independent of ε and fiε , such that, u1ε − u2ε Hs ≤ Cf1ε − f2ε Hd . The spaces Hs and Hd may also depend on ε. These ideas will be applied in particular in the next section, as well as further in the book.

Steady-state conductivity of a rod

2.2.1

Statement of the problem

Definition 2.2.1. Let β be a bounded domain in IR2 with piecewise smooth boundary, and let Uµ be the cylinder {x1 ∈ IR, x′ /µ ∈ β}, satisfying the strong cone condition [55]. The cylinder Cµ = Uµ ∩ {x1 ∈ (0, b)} is called a threedimensional (s = 3) rod. Here µ > 0 is a small parameter. We recall that x′ = (x2 , x3 ). Definition 2.2.1.′ In the two-dimensional case (s = 2) Uµ = IR×(−µ/2, µ/2), and the rectangle Cµ = Uµ ∩ {x1 ∈ (0, b)} = (0, b) × (−µ/2, µ/2) is called a twodimensional rod. Next, for s = 2, we assume that β = (−1/2, 1/2).

or x1 = b.

(2.2.2) (2.2.3)

Here (n1 , . . . , ns ) is a vector normal to the boundary Uµ and Aij (ξ) are functions satisfying the following conditions: 1)for any ξ ∈ IRs , Aij (ξ) = Aji (ξ), and 2) there exists κ > 0 such that, for any ηi ∈ IR, i = 1, ..., s, the following inequality holds: s

It is assumed that the functions Aij (ξ) are 1-periodic in ξ1 , infinitely differentiable everywhere outside a set Σ (consisting of smooth nonintersecting surfaces Σl ) up to this set Σ; we assume that there is only a finite number of surfaces Σl that intersect with the cylinder [0, b] × β; Σ ∩ ([0, 1] × ∂β) = ∅, and on Σ the coefficients have jump discontinuities. If Aij (ξ) depend on ξ1 , we require that b/µ be an integer. The right-hand side Fµ has the following structure: x Ψ(x1 ); Fµ = F µ

here F (ξ) is a 1-periodic matrix function of ξ1 , which has the same smoothness as the coefficients (see above) and that ψ ∈ C ∞ ([0, b]). On the interfaces of discontinuity of the coefficients, the natural conjugation conditions are assumed:

[u] = 0;

(2.2.4)

where (n1 , . . . , ns ) is the normal vector to the interface of discontinuity, [·] is the jump of a function on this interface. For s = 3, problem (2.2.1)–(2.2.3) models the temperature field in a rod of length b with cross-section βµ = {x′ ∈ R2 , x′ /µ ∈ β}; the ends of the rod have the temperature zero and the lateral surface is insulated. The rod has an inhomogeneous structure: the elements of the conductivity tensor Aij are µ-periodic functions of the longitudinal coordinate x1 , they also depend on the transverse coordinates x′ . The right-hand side (sources) is the product of the fast-oscillating function F (x/µ) by the slowly varying factor ψ(x1 ). For s = 2, the problem models a two-dimensional temperature field in a plate of length b and thickness µ. We construct formal asymptotic solutions (f.a.s.) to problem (2.2.1)–(2.2.3) in two stages, as in section 2.1. In the first stage we construct f.a.s. to equation (2.2.1) with condition (2.2.2), using an analog of N. Bakhvalov’s series; on the second stage we construct the boundary layer corrector. For the reader’s convenience, we first establish a formalism for each stage and then justify the asymptotic behavior, i.e., prove different assertions stated in constructing f.a.s. Furthermore, we prove that f.a.s. is an asymptotic expansion of an exact solution to the problem and establish an error estimate for the partial sum of the series of f.a.s.

Let us represent the right-hand side F as the sum F = F¯ + F,

If l > 0, then Nl and Ml are the solutions to problems (2.2.11)–(2.2.14). The right-hand sides of these problems contain Nm and Mm with indices m < l, which permits one to define them successively.

F F0 = 0.

2.2.

Proof. The proof is based on the Riesz representation theorem for a bounded linear functional on a Hilbert space. Namely, the right-hand side of the integral identity represents the linear functional G(Ψ) that is bounded in the norm of H 1 (Q) by the inequality |G(Ψ)| ≤

s j=0

On the other hand, for functions Ψ ∈ H 1 (Q) that satisfy Ψ = 0, the 2 s ∂Ψ ≥ c1 Ψ2H 1 (Q) , c1 > 0, holds (cf. [85]) Poincar´ é inequality i=1 ∂ξ i

1 is equivalent to the H 1 (Q)-norm on the subspace of functions of Hper vanishing average and this norm corresponds to the inner product

[Ψ, Θ]1 =

ξ1 (Q)

with

∂Ψ ∂Θ . Aij ∂ξξj ∂ξi i,j=1

Then we see that the functional G(Ψ) is bounded in the norm Ψ1 on this subspace as well, and therefore it can be represented in the form of an inner product [U, Ψ]1 = G(Ψ), where U is an element of the above subspace. Hence, 1 on the subspace of vector functions Ψ ∈ Hper ξ1 (Q) such that Ψ = 0, the integral identity holds for some vector function U from this subspace. Let 1 Ψ(ξ) ∈ Hper ξ1 (Q). Represent Ψ(ξ) in the form Ψ(ξ) = Ψ0 (ξ) + h, where h is a constant h = Ψ and Ψ0 = 0. Then [U, Ψ]1 = [U, Ψ0 ]1 + [U, h]1 = G(Ψ0 ) +

The chain of problems (2.2.21),(2.2.39) is consecutively solvable. This completes the construction of the f.a.s. for problem (2.2.1)-(2.2.3).

The justification of the asymptotic expansion

Here we prove the following main theorem. Theorem 2.2.3. Let K ∈ {0, 1, 2, ...}. Denote χ a function from C (K+2) ([0, b]) such that χ(t) = 1 when t ∈ [0, b/3], χ(t) = 0 when t ∈ [2b/3, b]. Consider a function (K)

1 Then this identity holds, in particular, for any function φ˜ ∈ Hper ξ1 (Q), vanishing when ξ1 = 0 (and therefore when ξ1 = 1). So, this identity holds for any function φ˜ ∈ H 1 (Q), vanishing when ξ1 = 0 and when ξ1 = 1, as well as for any function φ˜ ∈ H 1 ((a, a + 1) × β), vanishing when ξ1 = a and when ξ1 = a + 1; in the last case the average is defined as (mes β)−1 (a,a+1)×β dξ. Let φ˜ be a function from H 1 (µ−1 Cµ ) vanishing when ξ1 = 0 and when ξ1 = b/µ. We represent it in the form

˜ ˜ ˜ φ(ξ) = φ(ξ) sin2 (πξ1 ) + φ(ξ) cos2 (πξ1 ),

2.2.

˜ sin2 (πξ1 ) vanishes when ξ1 = i, i ∈ {0, 1, ..., b/µ} and φ(ξ) ˜ cos2 (πξ1 ) where φ(ξ) vanishes when ξ1 = i − 1/2, i ∈ {1, ..., b/µ} as well as when ξ1 = 0 or ξ1 = b/µ. Therefore, by simple addition the identity can be generalized as

Steady state elasticity equation in a rod

Constructions of section 2.2.3 repeat some ideas of section 2.2.2 but the elasticity system of equations is essentially more complex than the conductivity equation.

2.3. STEADY STATE ELASTICITY EQUATION IN A ROD

2.3.1

Formulation of the problem

We consider the elasticity system of equations (see [55]) Pu ≡

s ∂ x ∂u = Fµ (x), Aij µ ∂xj ∂xi i,j=1

x ∈ Cµ

(2.3.1)

with the boundary conditions s x ∂u ∂u ni = 0, ≡ Aij µ ∂xj ∂ν i,j=1

u = 0,

x1 = 0

x ∈ ∂U Uµ ,

or x1 = b.

(2.3.2) (2.3.3)

Here (n1 , . . . , ns ) is an exterior vector normal to the boundary Uµ and Aij (ξ) are (s × s)-matrices whose elements akl ij (ξ) satisfy the conditions kj lk akl ij (ξ) = ail (ξ) = aji (ξ),

and there exists a constant κ > 0 such that for any symmetric matrix ηik , for any ξ ∈ IRs the following inequality holds: s

i,j,k,l=1

k l akl ij (ξ)ηi ηj ≥ κ

s

(ηik )2 ,

κ > 0.

i,k=1

It is assumed that the functions Aij (ξ) are 1-periodic in ξ1 , infinitely differentiable everywhere outside of a set Σ (consisting of smooth nonintersecting surfaces Σl ) up to Σ; we assume that there is only a finite number of surfaces ∞ Σl that intersect with the cylinder [0, b] × β; Σ ∩ ([0, 1] × ∂β) = ∅, akl ij ∈ C kl and on Σ the coefficients have jump discontinuities. If aij depend on ξ1 , we require that b/µ be an integer. The right-hand side Fµ and the unknown u are s-dimensional vector-functions, and Fµ has the following structure: x′ x Ψ(x1 ); F Fµ = Φ µ µ

here Φ(ξ ′ ) is the matrix of rigid displacements; for s = 2, Φ(ξ ′ ) = I is the 2 × 2 identity matrix, and for s = 3 we have ⎞ ⎛ 1 0 0 0 (ξ 2 + ξ 2 ) dξ dξ −1/2 2 3 2 3 ′ ⎝ ⎠ 0 1 0 −aξ3 , a = Φ(ξ ) = ; mes β β 0 0 1 aξ2 F (ξ) is a d × d square matrix with d = 2 if s = 2 and d = 4 if s = 3; ψ(x1 ) is a d-dimensional vector function.

58


Figure 2.3.1. Right hand side force structure It is assumed that F (ξ) is a 1-periodic matrix function of ξ1 , which has the same smoothness as the coefficients (see above) and that ψ ∈ C ∞ ([0, b]). On the interfaces of discontinuity of the coefficients, the natural conjugation conditions are assumed: [u] = 0;

s

i,j=1


(2.3.4)

where (n1 , . . . , ns ) is the normal vector to the interface of discontinuity, [·] is the jump of a function on this interface. For s = 3, problem (2.3.1)–(2.3.3) models the stress-strain state of a rod of length b with cross-section βµ = {x′ ∈ R2 , x′ /µ ∈ β}; the ends of the rod are clamped and the lateral surface is free. The rod has an inhomogeneous structure: the elements of the elasticity tensor akl ij are µ-periodic functions of the longitudinal coordinate x1 , they also depend on the transverse coordinates x′ . The right-hand side (mass forces) has a tensile-pressing part (the first component of the vector F (x/µ)ψ(x1 )), bending parts (the second and third components of F (x/µ)ψ(x1 )) and a torsional part (the fourth component of F (x/µ)ψ(x1 )), each part is the product of the fast-oscillating function F (x/µ) by the slowly varying factor ψ(x1 ). For s = 2, the problem models a 2-D stress-strain state of the plate of length b and thickness µ. The right-hand side here has both tensile-pressing and bending components. We construct formal asymptotic solutions (f.a.s.) to problem (2.3.1)–(2.3.3) in two stages, as in section 1. At the first stage we construct f.a.s. to equation (2.3.1) with condition (2.3.2), using an analog of Bakhvalov’s ansatz; at


59

the second stage we construct the boundary layer corrector. For the reader’s convenience, we first establish a formalism for each stage and then justify the asymptotic expansion, i.e., prove different assertions stated in constructing f.a.s. Furthermore, we prove that f.a.s. is an asymptotic expansion of an exact solution to the problem and establish an error estimate for the partial sum of the series of f.a.s. This justification is developed for the rods with the symmetry of a periodic cell with respect to two co-ordinate planes (Condition A in section 2.3.2).

2.3.2

Inner expansion

Let us represent the right-hand side F as the sum F = F¯ + F,

where F¯ = Φ∗ ΦF , Φ∗ ΦF = 0. From now on in this section F (ξ, x) denotes the average F (ξ, x)dξ . mes β (0,1)×β

Theorem 2.3.2 follows directly from Theorems 4 and 5 in [130]. Their proofs are “corrected” for the right-hand side having specific representation (2.3.33) and (2.3.34) and the momenta in Theorem 5 are chosen so that they are equal to zero at infinity (i.e., in the notation of [130], the momenta are s ∂η r P r (0, u) = − (F F0 , η r )dξ + Fj , dξ, ∂ξξj (0,+∞)×β (0,+∞)×β j=1 where η r , r = 1, . . . , d¯ are elements of the basis of the rigid displacements space). 0 To determine the matrix hN from (2.3.30), it suffices to first solve the l problem 0 + T N 0 = 0, ξ1 > 0, ξ ′ ∈ β, Lξξ N l l s 0 ∂N l =− nm Am1 Nl0−1 , ∂ννξ m=2

If one subtracts Φh from N 0 (ξ), then Φh, l 0 (ξ) − Φh will stabilize to zero and satisfy (2.3.30) for the difference Nl0 = N l 0 r hN = −h. Problem (2.3.31) and the problems for Mlr and hM can be solved l l in the same manner. It follows from [130] that the energy e of the columns Nlr and Mlr also exponentially stabilizes to zero. After the successive determination of all Nlr and Mlr by induction (note that r N0 = 0) we obtain a homogenized problem of infinite order for the d-vector function ω(x1 ).

The boundary layer corrector for the two bar contact problem

Consider the following problem, which is, in some sense, a model problem for systems consisting of a finite number of bars. Namely, let the two bars Cµ+ = Uµ ∩ {x1 ∈ (0, b1 )} and Cµ− = Uµ ∩ {x1 ∈ (−b2 , 0)}, be given, where b1 and b2 are integer multiples of µ and each bar has specific coefficients Aij (ξ), i.e., Aij (ξ) = A+ ij (ξ)

if ξ1 > 0,

Aij (ξ) = A− ij (ξ)

if ξ1 < 0,

where A± ij (ξ) are 1-periodic in ξ1 matrix functions satisfying the conditions stated at the beginning of this section. Consider the elasticity system of equaUµ and tions (2.3.1) on Cµ+ ∪ Cµ− with the boundary conditions (2.3.2) for x ∈ ∂U (2.3.3) for x1 = b1 or −b2 , i.e., P u = Fµ (x),

x ∈ Cµ+ ∪ Cµ− ,

∂u Uµ , = 0, x ∈ ∂U ∂ν u = 0 when x1 = b1 or x1 = −b2 .

The construction of a f.a.s. to problem (2.3.48), (2.3.4) is again carried out in two stages. In the first stage, we construct inner expansions for Cµ+ and Cµ− , and in the second stage we construct the boundary layer correctors. As above, they are constructed independently for the cross-sections {x1 = −b2 }, {x1 = b1 }, and {x1 = 0}. The construction of the boundary layers near the ends {x1 = −b2 } and {x1 = b1 } is described above (see item 2.3). In what follows, we dwell on the construction of the boundary layer corrector near the cross-section {x1 = 0}. We seek the f.a.s. in the form −1 +1 0 u(∞) = u− B + uP + u P + u P

for x1 < 0,

−1 +1 0 u(∞) = u+ B + uP + u P + u P

The proof of Theorem 2.3.7 will be given below. Remark 2.3.3. Equations (2.3.69) with constant coefficients are well known (e.g., see [1],[189]), but these equations with variable coefficients were apparently first obtained in [83],[84]. Homogenized problems of infinite order specify these equations.

2.3.7

The justification of the asymptotic expansion.

First we prove Lemmas 2.3.2-2.3.5 justifying theorem 2.3.1. Lemma 2.3.2. Let condition A hold and let the matrices Nl (ξ) satisfy the relations Φ∗ Nl = 0, l > 0. Then the elements nkp l of the matrices Nl satisfy the following relations: ˜

δAk +δAp kp nkp nl (SA ξ), l (ξ) = (−1)

δAp = δAp + δp4 ,

A = 2, . . . , s,

(2.3.83)

where k = 1, 2, 3 and p = 1, 2, 3, 4 for s = 3 and k = 1, 2 and p = 1, 2 for s = 2; moreover, the matrices hN l are diagonal. If the sum l + δ1k + δ1p is odd and condition B is satisfied, then the relations nkp l = 0 and qp mq qp mq ∂nl mk + ai1 nl−1 = 0, i = 2, 3, (2.3.84) ϕ aij ∂ξξj

hold (here and below summation over repeated indices from 1 to s is implied).

83


If the sum δ2i + δ2k + δ2p or the sum δ3i + δ3k + δ3p is odd, then for the averages we have ∂nqp mq qp l + a n = 0, i = 2, 3. (2.3.85) ϕmk amq i1 ij l−1 ∂ξξj

The proof of Lemma 2.3.2 is similar to that of [16], Theorems 6.3.3 and 6.3.4: applying the identity δAi +δAj +δAk +δAl kl akl aij (ξ), ij (SA ξ) = (−1)

A = 2, 3, ˜

and substituting into (2.3.11)-(2.3.14)(by induction on l),we see that (−1)δAk +δAp is a solution. Thus, nkp l (SA ξ) ∂npr ∂ ˜ δAp +δÃr l (SA ξ) (−1) = (−1)δAi +δAj +δAp +δAr +δAi +δAj +δAk +δAp akp (ξ) ∂ξξj ∂ξi ij

N mq where hqr are entries of the matrix Φ. l are entries of the matrices hl and ϕ By induction on l, from relations (2.3.86)–(2.3.90) we can readily derive that if Nl are solutions to problems (2.3.11)–(2.3.14), then matrices with entries ˜ (−1)δAk +δAp nkp l (SA ξ) are also solutions and for l > 0 both matrices satisfy the relations ˜

Since a solution of problem (2.3.11)-(2.3.14) orthogonal to rigid-body disδÃq +δÃr placements is unique, we have (2.3.83). This and (2.3.89) imply hqr l = (−1) N hqr l , i.e., the matrices hl are diagonal.

this implies (2.3.85). Similarly, by induction on l, we can prove that if condition B is satisfied, then the matrix (−1)l+δ1p +δ1r npr l (ξ) is a solution to problem (2.3.11)–(2.3.14), l+δ1p +δ1r pr and this implies relations (2.3.84), (2.3.85) and npr nl (ξ). l (ξ) = (−1) qq qq l qq Hence, hl = (−1) hl , hl = 0 for all odd l. This completes the proof of the lemma. qq Lemma 2.3.3. Let condition A be satisfied. Then h11 2 > 0, h2 = 0, qq 44 q = 2, . . . , s, and h2 > 0 for s = 3; moreover, h3 = 0, q = 2, . . . , s. Proof. Let us obtain a new representation for the matrix s ∂N N1 N ∗ + A11 Φ . h2 = Φ A1j ∂ξξj j=1

We have hN 2

s ∂ = Φ∗ A1j (N N1 + ξ1 Φ) . ∂ξξj j=1

Since

∗ s ∂(Φξ1 ) ∂ ∗ = (Aj1 Φ)∗ = Φ∗ A1j , (Φ ξ1 )Amj = Ajm ∂ξm ∂ξm m=1 m=1 s

we obtain hN 2 =

(2.3.91)

∂ ∂ N1∗ Amj (N N1 + ξ1 Φ) . ∂ξm ∂ξξj m,j=1

(2.3.92)

On the other hand, it follows from the integral identity for problem (2.3.11)– (2.3.14) with the test matrix-valued function N1 that 0=

85

Summing (2.3.91) and (2.3.92), we obtain the following representation for hN 2 : hN 2 =

N Now let us prove that the elements hkl 2 of the matrix h2 satisfy the relations 22 44 > 0 and h2 = 0 and if s = 3, then we also have h33 2 = 0 and h2 > 0. Denote the matrix elements by means of a pair of superscripts. Then we have 1 ∂ ∂ ∂ (N N1 + ξ1 Φ)kl (N N1 + ξ1 Φ)kl akq (N N1 + ξ1 Φ)ql = hll 2 = mj 2 ∂ξm ∂ξm ∂ξξj ∂ (N N1 + ξ1 Φ)ml + ∂ξk ∂ ∂ kq 1 (N N1 + ξ1 Φ)jl (N N1 + ξ1 Φ)ql + ×amj ∂ξq 2 ∂ξξj s 2 ∂ κ ∂ (N N1 + ξ1 Φ)jl .

Moreover,

2 ∂ (N N1 + ξ1 Φ)11 ∂ξ1 2 ∂ (N N1 + ξ1 Φ)11 = κ > 0, ≥κ ∂ξ1 h11 2 ≥κ

because (∂/∂ξ1 )N N1 = 0 and N1 is 1-periodic with respect to ξ1 . Moreover,

44 Let us prove that h44 2 = 0. Assume the contrary, i.e., let h2 = 0. Then the 14 last estimate implies ∂n14 /∂ξ = 0, and n does not depend on ξ1 , moreover, 1 1 1 ∂ ∂ 14 2 r4 n = 0. nr4 + 1 +ϕ ∂ξr 1 ∂ξ1

Hence, 2 ∂nr4 ∂n14 2 ∂nr4 ∂ ∂n14 1 1 1 1 = 0. + ϕr4 + ϕr4 + 2 nr4 +2 1 ∂ξr ∂ξ1 ∂ξr ∂ξ1 ∂ξ1

The second integral and the third integral are equal to zero, because n14 1 does not depend on ξ1 ; hence, n14 1 satisfies the system of equations −aξ3 +

∂n14 1 = 0, ∂ξ2

aξ2 +

∂n14 1 = 0, ∂ξ3

86


whence

∂ 2 n14 1 = a, ∂ξ3 ∂ξ2

∂ 2 n14 1 = −a. ∂ξ2 ∂ξ3

This contradiction proves that h44 2 > 0. The constants hqq vanish for q = 2, . . . , s, because the direct substitution 2 into (2.3.11)–(2.3.13) for l = 2 proves that the second (the third, . . . , the s−th) (2) (s) column, (N N2 , . . . , N2 ), of the matrix N2 satisfies N2q = −(ξq , 0, . . . , 0)∗ ; hence, the corresponding columns of the matrix N2 + ξ1 Φ represent the rigid-body displacements. Now let us prove that hqq 3 = 0 for q = 2, . . . , s. We have p2 p2 p2 p2 ∂ξ2 2p p2 1p ∂n2 1p p2 1p ∂n2 2p ∂n2 +a1p . +a n = a +a n = a h22 = a 3 m1 n1 11 1 21 1 2j mj 1j ∂ξξj ∂ξm ∂ξξj ∂ξξj

Applying the integral identity for problem (2.3.11)–(2.3.14) with l = 2, we transform the last integral to the following form (h12 2 = 0): p2 ∂ ∂np2 1p p2 1p p2 1p ∂n1 12 2 − a n ξ2 + a n ξ = − h − a a1p − 2 2 11 0 m1 1 1j ∂ξξj ∂ξm mj ∂ξξj

∂np2 p2 1p ∂ p2 1 (n + ξ δ ) ξ2 = 0, + a1p n ξ = a 1 p 2 2 11 0 1j ∂ξξj 1 ∂ξξj

since the second column of the matrix N1 + ξ1 Φ is the rigid-body displacement. For the case s = 3, we similarly obtain h33 3 = 0. This proves the lemma. Let the elasticity operator −

s ∂ x ∂u , Aij µ ∂xj ∂xi i,j=1

be given and let u be a vector function from Hb1−per (U Uµ ); this space is the completion (by the H 1 (C Cµ )−norm) of the space of b-periodic in x1 differentiable in U¯µ vector-valued functions. Assume that ∫Cµ Φ∗ u dx = 0. Lemma 2.3.4. The function u satisfies the following inequality (for sufficiently small µ): ∂u ∂u dx ≥ c µ4 ∇u2L2 (Cµ ) + µ2 u2L2 (Cµ ) , c > 0. (2.3.95) , Aij ∂xj ∂xi Cµ

Let us perform the following changes of variables in formulas (2.3.93) and (2.3.94): 1) x1 = ξ1 , x2 = ξ2 µ, . . . , xs = ξs µ, 2) u1 = w1 , u2 = w2 /µ, . . . , us = ws /µ, 3) multiply the components of the vector (2.3.93), from the second to the s−th one, and the first component of the vector (2.3.94) by µ−1 and multiply the components of the vector (2.3.94) from the second to the s−th one, by µ−2 .

(2.3.100)

It follows from Lemma 2.3.4 that the right-hand side of this equality is bounded (K) from below by c1 µ2 uµ 2L2 (Uµ ) ; in its turn, for small µ, this expression is bounded from below by c1 µs+1 c1 µ2 mes β V 2L2 (0,b) . ΦV 2L2 (Uµ ) = 2 2 Here constant c1 is independent of µ. By taking the second component of the vector V , for example, in the form sin(2πx1 /b) and by setting the other components equal to zero, we see from equation (2.3.100) that h22 4 < 0. Similarly for s = 3 we can prove that h33 4 < 0. The statements of Theorem 2.3.1 follow from Lemmas 2.3.2–2.3.5. Lemma 2.3.6. If condition A for problem (1)–(4) is satisfied, then the r r matrices hN and hN have the following structure: if s = 2, then 0 1 ⎛ ⎞ 1 0 r ⎝0 1⎠ hN 0 = 0 0 r is equal to (0, 1); and the third row of hN 1 ⎛ 1 0 ⎜0 1 ⎜ ⎜0 0 Nr h0 = ⎜ ⎜0 0 ⎜ ⎝0 0 0 0

if s = 3, then ⎞ 0 0 0 0⎟ ⎟ 1 0⎟ ⎟ 0 1⎟ ⎟ 0 0⎠ 0 0

90


r and the fifth row and the sixth row of the matrix hN are equal to (0, 1, 0, 0) and 1 to (0, 0, 1, 0), respectively. Proof. Since N0 = Φ, the trivial matrices N0r = 0 are solutions of boundary layer r problems (2.3.30) and (2.3.31), and hN indeed has the above structure; so, 0

Setting the third element N r(j) of h1 equal to 1 for s = 2 and the (j + 3)−th element equal to 1 for s = 3 r(j) and setting the other elements equal to zero, we see that N1 = 0 is a solution of the boundary layer problem. To complete the proof, it remains to establish that the first (for s = 3, the last) element of the last (for s = 3, the next to the last) row of the matrix r is equal to zero. To do this, it suffices to prove that for s = 3, the first hN 1 and the fourth columns of a solution to problem (2.3.37) stabilize to the rigidbody displacement orthogonal to the vectors (−ξ2 , ξ1 , 0) and (−ξ3 , 0, ξ1 ) and for s = 2, the first column of solution to problem (2.3.37) stabilizes to a constant. 0 to problem In its turn, this assertion follows from the fact that the solution N 1 (2.3.37) satisfies (under condition A) relations similar to equations (2.3.83): ˜

δAk +δAp kp n kp n 1 (SA ξ), 1 (ξ) = (−1)

A = 2, . . . , s.

(2.3.101)

Indeed, it follows from (2.3.101) that n 11 14 1 (ξ) is an even function (and n 1 (ξ) is an odd function for s = 3) of ξ2 , . . . , ξs , hence, they cannot stabilize to a rigid-body displacement with the first component of the form c0 + c2 ξ2 + · · · + cs ξs whose 0 stabilizes coefficients c2 , . . . , cs satisfy |c2 | + · · · + |cs | = 0. This means that N 1 N0 N0 to the rigid-body displacement (−Φh1 ), where the matrix h1 has the zero first element in the last row for s = 2 and the first and the last zero elements in the two last rows for s = 3. The proof of relations (2.3.101) is perfectly similar to that of Lemma 2.3.2. This completes the proof of Lemma 2.3.6. The proof of Theorems 2.3.2, 2.3.3, and 2.3.5 is perfectly similar to the proof of Theorems 4 and 5 in [130] and of the theorems (of Phr¨ a¨gmen-Lindelöf type) 8.1 and 8.3 of Chapter 1 in [129].

0 Here 0 npq l are the entries of the matrices Nl (ξ). The proof of relations (2.3.102) is similar to that of Lemma 2.3.2 (by substitution). Relation (2.3.103) follows from equations (2.3.102): ˜ ˜ ˜ qr χl = (−1)δAk +δAq ϕ kq (η)(−1)δAk +δAp +δAp +δAr (0,+∞)×β

the set (0, +∞) × β, vanishes. Let us prove that this integral also vanishes in ¯ qq . Let q = 2 and s = 3 (the proof for q = 3 and s = 2 is formulas (2.3.45) for h 3 similar).

whence the above integral is zero. qq qq 0 qq Now the equations 0 hqq 1 = −h2 for q = 1, . . . , d, and h3 = −h4 follow from the fact that relations (2.3.45) and (2.3.14) give the same expressions for these quantities. Finally, 2 −1 −0 h52 2 = −ξ2

0 32 The statements concerning 0 h63 2 and h2 for s = 2 can be proved similarly. This completes the proof of Lemma 2.3.8.

The statement of Theorem 2.3.4 follows from the statements of Lemmas 2.3.7 and 2.3.8, taking into account the homogeneity of equations (2.3.58). The proof of Theorem 2.3.6 can be given similarly to that of Lemmas 2.3.6–2.3.8. Lemma 2.3.9. A solution of the equation P u = f in the domain Cµ with boundary conditions (2.3.2),(2.3.3) and with the right-hand side f ∈ L2 (C Cµ ) satisfies the a priori estimate uH 1 (Cµ ) ≤ cµ−2 f L2 (Cµ ) .

93


Proof. By analogy with Lemma 2.3.4, we obtain estimate (2.3.95). Furthermore, it follows from the integral identity that ∂u ∂u dx = − (f, u) dx ≤ , Aij ∂xj ∂xi Cµ Cµ

≤ f L2 (Cµ ) uL2 (Cµ ) ≤ f L2 (Cµ ) uH 1 (Cµ ) . This, together with inequality (2.3.95), implies the desired estimate. Lemma 2.3.9 is used to obtain the estimate for the proximity of the exact solution of problem (2.3.1)–(2.3.4) and the asymptotic expansion u(∞) . Namely, as it was done in section 2.2, substitute the (K + 1)−th partial sum u(K) of the series u(∞) into equations (2.3.1)–(2.3.4). Grouping the terms in the same way as in the series itself, we see that the residual on the right-hand side of the equation can be estimated by O(µK−1 ). A similar residual in the boundary conditions is transferred to the right-hand side by substitution (see section 2.2). Then we can apply the a priori estimate of Lemma 2.3.9 and obtain u − u(K) H 1 (Cµ ) = O(µK ) mes Cµ .

The solvability of the ordinary differential equations for ωj is clear. Thus we obtain

Theorem 2.3.8. Let K ∈ {0, 1, 2, ...}. Denote χ a function from C (K+2) ([0, b]) such that χ(t) = 1 when t ∈ [0, b/3], χ(t) = 0 when t ∈ [2b/3, b]. Consider a function (K)

This completes the proof of the theorem. Similarly we can prove the analogous theorems for problems (2.3.1), (2.3.2), (2.3.3’) and (2.3.48),(2.3.4)). Proof of Theorem 2.3.7. Substituting np1 1 = (1 − δp1 )

(−λ) (−λ) ξp ξp for p = 2 and np1 1 = (1 − δp1 ) 2(M + λ) 2M + λ

for s = 3 into (2.3.11)–(2.3.13), we directly verify that these functions satisfy problem (2.3.11)–(2.3.13) for l = 1. Then * s p1 (λ+2M )2 −λ2 for s = 2, 1p ∂n1 11 (s) 11 λ+2M ¯ = + a11 = E h2 = a1j M (3 λ+2M ) ∂ξ ξ for s = 3. j λ+M j,p=2 ′ The function n14 1 is a solution Y (ξ ) of the Laplace equation in the domain β with the boundary condition ∂Y /∂n − aξ3 n2 + aξ2 n3 = 0 on the boundary ∂β.

On the other hand, for each z ∈ H 1 (β), the function n14 1 satisfies the integral identity 14 ∂n114 ∂z ′ ∂n1 ∂z (−ξ3 n2 + ξ2 n3 )z ds. (2.3.105) dξ = −a + ∂ξ3 ∂ξ3 ∂ξ2 ∂ξ2 ∂β β

By setting z = n14 1 and replacing the last integral in (104) according to (2.3.105), we obtain ∂n 14 2 ∂n 14 2 2 2 2 1 1 = − = M a (ξ + ) − h44 ξ 2 2 3 ∂ξ3 ∂ξ2 14 ∂n1 2 ∂n114 2 ≤ M. + =M 1− ∂ξ3 ∂ξ2

Remark 2.3.3. We have studied in this section the case when the rod satisfies some symmetry conditions (Condition A). The general case was studied by different techniques in [117,119] and by the techniques of this section in [101] by A. Majd. The main idea is in multiplication of components of the ansatz by some normalizing factors.

where for all t ∈ (0, T ), φ ∈ H 1 (C Cµ ), φ = 0 for x1 = 0 or b. The second integral is developed in the same way as in section 2.2, while the contribution of the first integral corresponds to the supplementary terms −ρN Nl−1,q−1 , −ρN Nlr−1,q−1 , r = 0, 1 and −ρM Ml−1,q−1 , −ρM Mlr−1,q−1 , r = 0, 1 in cell problems (2.4.7) and boundary layer problems.

Contrasting coefficients

(Multi-component homogenization) In this section we consider the highly contrasting coefficients in a 2D model for a rod. We will find out that the classical homogenization can be applied here only in some partial case, when the ”contrast” is not too high with respect to µ2 . In the opposite case the multi-component homogenization introduced in [146],[147] should be applied. This example shows that the contrast of the coefficients is an important physical parameter which can correlate with the other geometrical parameters. This scale effect (see also [141]) was used for the invention of a method for measuring of the conductivity of highly heterogeneous stratified plate [164]. Consider a model problem of a rod with contrasting coefficients. Assume that 1 1 Kω (y) = ωK+ if y ∈ ( , ), 4 2

1 1 Kω (y) = K0 if y ∈ (− , ), 4 4

1 1 Kω (y) = ωK− if y ∈ (− , − ), 2 4 where K0 , K+ , K− > 0, ω > 0. Consider the conductivity equation

CHAPTER 2. HETEROGENEOUS ROD (J)

For the truncated sum uµ,ω (2.6.36), (2.6.45) at l ≤ J + 1, j ≤ J, k ≤ J the following estimate holds true : −J ∇(uµ,ω − u(J) + (µ2 ω)J ) µ,ω )L2 ((0,T )×βµ ) ≤ C(ω

(2.6.48)

where C does not depend on the parameters. So, in this case, when µ2 ω → +0, the solution tends to function v00 independent of µ and ω. Thus if µ2 ω is a small parameter then problem (2.6.1) - (2.6.3) has a classical homogenization limit v00 . If µ2 ω is a great or finite parameter then there is no a unique limit function v independent of µ and ω : the solution tends in the upper layer to function v+ and in the lower layer to function v− . This is a case of the multi-component homogenization.

EFMODUL: a code for cell problem s

In asymptotic study of partial differential equations auxiliary problems arise so-called cell problems. The solutions of these problems enable us to define the effective properties of heterogeneous media. These cell problems are solved numerically by the finite-difference method implemented in the code EFMODUL. The numerical results are analyzed and the possibility of an application of the extrapolation method is discussed here below. Consider the system of equations s x ∂u x ∂u x ∂2u ∂ = f (x, t). (2.7.1) A − +S R ij ∂xi ε ∂xj ε ∂t ε ∂t2 i,j=1

Here R(ξ), S(ξ) and Aij (ξ) are piecewise-smooth 1-periodic square n×n matricesvalued functions of the variable ξ ∈ Rs , s = 1, 2, 3; u, f are n−dimensional vectors, n = 1, 2, 3; ε is a small parameter. Equation (2.7.1) describes different processes in composite materials: the wave propagation in elastic non-uniform media, heat transfer (R = 0), diffusion, flow in porous media and so on ; if R = S = 0 we have a steady state problem. An asymptotic study of equation (1) as ε → 0 is given in [16] by the homogenization theory. It is proved that in some assumptions on the coefficients the solution to equation (2.7.1) tends to a solution v of the homogenized equation that is, s ∂v ∂ ∂v ∂2v ˆ ˆ ˆ = f (x, t) (2.7.2) Aij − R 2 +S ∂xj ∂t i,j=1 ∂xi ∂t

with corresponding initial and boundary conditions. The constant n×n matrixvalued coefficients of this equation are called the effective (or macroscopic, or homogenized) coefficients. One of the fundamental problems of the homogenization theory is the calculation of these coefficients. In [16] it was shown that ˆ = R(ξ), Sˆ = S(ξ), where . denotes the integral over a periodic cubic cell R {0 < ξi < 1, i = 1, 2, . . . , s}. To determine Aîj we have to solve s, subsidiary

where I is the unit n × n− matrix, and put 0 / s (N + I) N ξ j j . Aîj = Air (ξ) ∂ξr r=1

(2.7.4)

In the case when the coefficients Aij (ξ) are discontinuous, the solution Nq of systems (2.7.3) is understood in the sense of the variational formulation; in the classical formulation on the surfaces of discontinuity the interface conditions ⎡ ⎤ s ∂(N Nq + ξq I) [N Nq ] = 0, ⎣ Aij (ξ) nj (ξ)⎦ = 0, ∂ξξj i,j=1 are specified, where [.] is the function jump across the surface of discontinuity and nj (ξ) are the direction cosines of the normal vector. In the composite s ∂(N Nj +ξj I) are also of materials mechanics the quantities A˜ij (ξ) = r=1 Air (ξ) ∂ξ r interest since in the case of the elasticity problem the local (microscopic) stresses are calculated from the formula l σik (x) = a ˜kl ij (x/ε)ej (v) + O(ǫ), l j l ˜ where a ˜kl ij (ξ) are elements of the matrix Aij (ξ) and ej (v) = (∂v /∂xl +∂v /∂xj )/2 is the mean (macroscopic) strain tensor (see [16] for a more accurate formulation). For every q, cell problem (2.7.3) for the matrix-valued unknown function can be split into n independent systems relative to the columns Nqp of the matrix Nq , p = 1, 2, . . . , n. We shall rewrite (2.7.3) in the form s ∂ Ai (ξ, ∇ξ (N Nqp + ξq ep )) = 0, p = 1, 2, . . . , n, ∂ξ i i=1

(2.7.5)

where ep is the p-th column of the unit matrix, ∇ξ (N Nqp + ξq E p ) is n × s−matrix p p p p constituted of columns ∂(N N +ξ E )/∂ξ , ..., ∂(N N +ξ q 1 q E )/∂ξs and Ai (ξ, ∇ξ N ) = q q s j=1 Aij ∂N/∂ξi is an n-dimensional vector. A difference scheme of the secondorder approximation (for smooth Ai ) is used to solve system (2.7.5) Lh Nqp = 0

equal to [±ϕ(ξ ± ei hi ) ∓ ϕ(ξ)]/hi if j = i, and [ϕ(ξ ± ei hi + ej hj ) + ϕ(ξ + ej hj ) − ϕ(ξ ± ei hi − ej hj ) − ϕ(ξ − ej hj )]/4hj if j = i (here there is no summing over the repeated index), and hi , . . . , hs are the steps with respect to ξi , . . . , ξs . The mesh is chosen to be uniform : ξ = (i1 h1 , . . . , is hs )t , i1 , . . . , is ∈ ZZ, ∗ is the sign of transposition, and ZZ is the set of integers. In order to solve, in turn, the system of algebraic equations (2.7.6), an implicit fix point method was applied with inversion of the difference analogue of the Laplacian (a fast Fourier transform was used, see [173]) : ΛN Nqp(k) = ΛN Nqp(k−1) − τ Lh Nqp(k−1) ,

the solution N (ξ, y) is found in the class of n-dimensional vector functions that are 1-periodic in ξ. Homogenized equation has the form (see [16]) 2 ˆ ∂ v + Sˆ ∂v − d Aî (∇x v) = f (x, t), R dxi ∂t ∂t2

is applied and the fixed point method of type (2.7.8) is used : ΛN (k) = ΛN (k−1) − τ Lh N (k−1) , where Λ is the difference analogue of the Laplace operator. Consider porous (perforated) media with an ε-periodic in all the xi pores and denote by Aε ) the domain occupied by pores. Then equation (2.7.9) is set in x ∈ Rs \Aε and it is supplied by the Neumann boundary conditions on pore surface ∂Aε . Ai (x/ε, ∇x u)ni (x/ε) = 0 for x ∈ ∂Aε . In this case equation (2.7.10) is set out of pores, i.e. for ξ ∈ IRs \A0 , where A0 = {ξ| εξ ∈ Aε }. On the boundary ξ ∈ ∂A0 the following boundary condition is set: s Ai (ξ, ∇ξ N + y)ni (ξ) = 0. (2.7.14) i=1

Problem (2.7.10) and (2.7.14) was solved by exactly the same method. In (i) (i) this case in (2.7.8) the quantity Ai was considered to be zero if ξ+ (or ξ− ) is in the set A0 The homogenized equation in this case has the form (2.7.11), where f must be replaced by f mes(Q\A0 ), and Q is the unit cube. The higher order cell problems can be presented in the form s ∂ Ai (ξ, ∇ξ N + Y (ξ)) = F (ξ) ∂ξ i i=1

(2.7.15)

where N is a 1-periodic unknown function and Y (ξ), F (ξ) are 1-periodic in ξ (see [16]). These problems can also be solved by the method given above. The cell problems for heterogeneous rods and plates considered in Chapters 2, 3 have also the same form (2.7.15). In the case when the symmetry of coefficients holds with respect to some coordinate plane, the cell problem can be reduced to the problem in the halfcell by using the properties of evenness and oddness of the components of the solution (see [16], Chapter 5). In this case the periodic problems could be reduced to boundary-value ones. The above difference schemes were implemented in a form of the computer solver EFMODUL for conductivity and elasticity problems. Let us consider some results computed by this solver [142]. I. Consider the case of one equation, i.e. n = 1. Let 5 1 for ξ ∈ G1 Aij (ξ) = δij K(ξ), K(ξ) = κ for ξ ∈ G2 ,

where G2 is a sub-domain of the periodic cell Q = {ξ | ξi ∈ (0, 1), i = 1, 2, . . . , s}, G1 = Q\G2 . 1. Consider the case s = 2, G2 is a disk of radius 0.25 with its center at the ˆ (see [16]). Below, values of K ˆ that depend point (0.5,0.5). Then Aîj = δij K ˆ are, respectively, on κ are computed: if κ = 0, 2, 5, 10, 20 then the values of K 0.66, 1.13, 1.30, 1.39, 1.43. Note that if κ >> 1 then the iteration parameter τ epl . In this case the values of a ˆri (y) are calculated if y11 = η, yml = 0 (if m = 1 or ˆ22 = l = 1) for different η: if η = 0.01, 0.02, 0.03 then a ˆ11 = 0.035, 0.0694, 0.0998, a 3 2 j ˆ2 , a î = 0 if i = j. 0.11, 0.022, 0.036, a ˆ3 = a

The homogenization techniques plays an important part in the applied mathematics and mechanics of the twenty’s century because it has created the mathematical theory of the heterogeneous media and in particular, composite materials and porous media.

Oleinik [127], V. Berdichevsky [23], I. Babuska [8], F.Murat and L.Tartar [109], [187] and V. Marchenko and E. Khruslov [103]. In particular, in [13] the series permitting the construction of the complete asymptotic expansion appeared for the first time. The form of the series (2.1.2) is close to the asymptotic series of the averaging technique introduced by N. Krylov, N. Bogoljubov, and Yu. Mitropol’sky [29]. Nowadays the homogenization techniques is presented by two branches: one is the construction of asymptotic expansions and the other is the H-convergence (the G-convergence) and its generalization that is the two-scale convergence. The first branch [16,22,128,129] gives more information about the solution (all correctors, boundary layers, high order estimates) but it demands more smoothness of the data. The second approach [3,65,109,187] requires less of smoothness of data but often the results are formulated as some convergence theorems while error estimates are less informative than in the first approach. The boundary layer techniques appeared in the works by L.Prandtl in the beginning of the twenty’s century and were generalized for the partial derivative equations by M.Vishik and L.Lusternik in [193]. The mathematical asymptotic study of a thin homogeneous rod has been developed in [1,53,111,189]. The complete asymptotic expansion of a thin inhomogeneous rod with symmetry condition A was first constructed in [83,84]. The beams with rapidly varying cross-section were studied in [192]. General anisotropic heterogeneous rods were studied by the asymptotic expansion method in [117] and [101] and by the scaling and then application of the Hconvergence techniques in [108]. The contact problem of two heterogeneous bars was considered in [149,150,169].

Chapter 3

Heterogeneous Plate Here we consider the three-dimensional conductivity problem and the threedimensional elasticity problem in a thin domain (plate) having a heterogeneous structure. We assume that the characteristic size of heterogeneities is of the same order as the ”width” of the domain. Assume that it is much less than the ”length” of the plate that is a characteristic longitudinal size of the domain. So the ratio of the ”width” to the ”length” of the plate is the small parameter of the same order as the ratio of the characteristic size of heterogeneity to the ”length” of the plate. We assume that the ”length” of the plate has a finite value. The simplest geometrical model of a plate is defined as an intersection of µ = {(x1 , x2 ) ∈ IR2 , x3 /µ ∈ (−1/2, 1/2)} orthogonal to the axis a thin layer U x3 with the ”thick” three-dimensional layer {x = (x1 , x2 , x3 ) ∈ IR3 ; x1 ∈ (0, b)} orthogonal to the axis x1 . As in Chapter 2, we assume that µ is a small parameter. The microscopical heterogeneity of the plate is simulated by a special dependence of the coefficients of the material on space variable x = (x1 , x2 , x3 ); these coefficients are functions of x/µ.

CHAPTER 3. HETEROGENEOUS PLATE

Figure 3.0.1. Heterogeneous plate. An asymptotic analysis of the mathematical model is developed as µ tends to zero. To this end we apply the homogenization technique and the boundary layer technique (cf. Chapter 2). In section 3.1 we study the conductivity equation; an expansion of a solution is constructed and justified and the twodimensional homogenized model of the plate is obtained. In section 3.2 the three-dimensional elasticity problem for a plate is studied. The question about existence of an equivalent homogeneous plate is discussed in section 3.3. Nonsteady state elasticity equation is studied in section 3.4.

Here b and T are numbers of the order of 1 that are multiples of µ and Aij (ξ) satisfy the conditions of section 2.2 and are 1-periodic with respect to ξ1 and ξ2 . These elements are assumed to be piecewise smooth functions (in the sense of section 2.2; for β we take the square (−1/2, 1/2) × (−1/2, 1/2)), while ψ is a C ∞ function that is T -periodic with respect to x2 .

3.1. CONDUCTIVITY OF A PLATE

Let us give the variational formulation of (3.1.7)-(3.1.9). Let Q be the unit 1 1 cube (0, 1)2 × (− 12 , 12 ). Let Hper ξ1 ,ξ2 (Q) be closure in the norm H (Q) of the space of differentiable on IR2 ×[−1/2, 1/2] functions of ξ = (ξ1 , ξ2 , ξ3 ), 1-periodic 1 in ξ1 and ξ2 . Then the variational formulation is: find Ni ∈ Hper ξ1 ,ξ2 (Q), such that 1 ∀Φ ∈ Hper

It could be proved as in section 2.2 (Lemma 2.2.1) that this problem has a solution if and only if (3.1.10) holds true. This solution is defined up to an arbitrary additive constant. Thus, the algorithm for constructing the functions Ni is recurrent. We formally assume that Ni = 0 for |i| < 0, N∅ = 1, and Ni (ξ) is a solution of problem (3.1.7)–(3.1.10) for l > 0. The right-hand side contains Nj with multi-indices j whose length is smaller than |i|. Theorem 3.1.1. The constant matrix of homogenized coefficients A¯ = (hi1 i2 )1≤i1 ,i2 ≤2 is positive definite and it is symmetric. Proof. 1. It follows from (3.1.10) that hi1 i2 =

The last relation arises from the integral identity for problem (3.1.7)–(3.1.9) with |i| = 2. The symmetry of the matrix of coefficients A = (Amj )1≤m,j≤3 implies the symmetry of the matrix of homogenized coefficients A¯ = (hi1 i2 )1≤i1 ,i2 ≤2 . Let us prove that A¯ is positive definite. Let (η1 , η2 ) ∈ IR2 . Consider the sum 2

Problem (3.1.11) can be regarded as the homogenized equation of infinite order with respect to the three-dimensional vector ω. A formal asymptotic solution (f.a.s.) of this problem is sought in the form of a series ω=

where ωj do not depend on µ. Substituting the series (3.1.12) into (3.1.11), we obtain a recurrent chain of equations for the components ωjk of the vectors ωj in the form 2 ∂ 2 ωj A¯i1 i2 = fj (x1 , x2 ), (3.1.13) ∂xi1 ∂xi2 i ,i =1 1

2

where A¯i1 i2 = hi1 i2 , the functions fj depend on ωj1 , j1 < j, and on the derivatives of these functions. Thus, the f.a.s. of the problem (3.1.1), (3.1.2), and (2.2.4) is constructed. The asymptotic analysis of the conductivity equation for inhomogeneous plates was first carried out by D.Caillerie [31], where the homogenized equation of zero order was obtained. Here below we construct the complete asymptotic expansion of a solution of the conductivity equation (taking into account the boundary layers).

3.1.3


A formal asymptotic solution of problem (3.1.1)–(3.1.3), (2.2.4) will be sought again in the form (2.2.22): u(∞) = uB + u0P + u1P , where uB is defined by (3.1.4) and ∞

Theorem 3.1.2. Let Aij (ξ) satisfy the conditions formulated at the beginning of this section, let the three-dimensional vectors Fj (ξ) be 1-periodic with respect to ξ2 and belong to L2 ([0, +∞) × β), j = 0, 1, 2, 3, let β = (−1/2, 1/2)2 , and let u0 (ξ ′ ) be 1-periodic with respect to ξ2 and belong to H 1/2 ({0} × (−1, 1) × (−1/2, 1/2)). Then a solution u(ξ) of the problem 3 1 1 ∂F Fj ′ , , ξ1 > 0, ξ ∈ IR × − , Lξξ u = F0 (ξ) + ∂ξξj 2 2 j=1

Here by a solution of problem (3.1.17) we mean a function u(ξ) satisfying the integral identity from subsection 3.1.2. Theorem 3.1.2 can be proved similarly to Theorems 4 and 5 in [130] and theorems of the Phragmen-Lindelof ¨ type [89],[90]. The constants hri are defined r similarly to the constants hN from Chapter 2. In this case hr∅ = 1 since N∅r = 0 l and N∅ = 1. After determining all Nir and hri by induction on |i|, we obtain a homogenized problem for the three-dimensional vector function ω(x1 , x2 ): this problem is formed by equation (3.1.14) with the boundary conditions

where the gjr depend on ωjr1 with j1 < j and on derivatives of these functions. The homogenized problem of zero order is formed by relations (3.1.13), (3.1.18) with j = 0, f0 (x1 , x2 ) = ψ(x1 , x2 ),

(3.1.19)

g0r = 0.

The estimate for the difference of the exact solution and the asymptotic solution can be obtained as in Chapter 2.

3.1.4

Algorithm for calculating the effective conductivity of a plate

As in section 2.3, we present a calculation algorithm for the coefficients A¯i1 i2 = hi1 i2 , i1 , i2 ∈ {1, 2}, of the homogenized equation (the effective conductivity tensor in a plane). We first solve the conductivity equations for i1 = 1, 2:

∂ ∂ (N Ni1 + ξi1 ) = 0, Amj ∂ξξj ∂ξm m,j=1 3

3 j=1

A3j

∂ (N Ni1 + ξi1 ) = 0, ∂ξξj

ξ3 ∈

1 ξ3 = ± , 2

(3.1.20)

where Ni1 (ξ) is an unknown function that is 1-periodic with respect to ξ1 and ξ2 . The effective conductivity coefficients in a plane can be defined by the following formulas: A¯i1 i2 = hi1 i2 =

3 j=1

Ai1 j

∂ (N Ni2 + ξi2 ) . ∂ξξj

(3.1.21)

For constant coefficients in the isotropic case Amj = δmj K, K = const, we have: Nk = 0, k = 1, 2, A¯i1 i2 = δi1 i2 K; for constant coefficients in the general case we have A¯i1 i2 = Ai1 i2 − Ai1 3 A−1 33 A3i2 . For coefficients depending on ξ3 only we have

(3.1.22)


137

A¯i1 i2 = Ai1 i2 − Ai1 3 A−1 33 A3i2 ,

1/2 where · = −1/2 dξ3 . Indeed, in this case a solution of problem (3.1.20) is sought as a function of ξ3 only. We have: A33

∂N N i2 + A3i2 = 0, ∂ξ3

so ∂N N i2 = −A−1 33 A3i2 , ∂ξ3

and so (3.1.21) implies

∂N N i2 + Ai1 i2 = Ai1 i2 − Ai1 3 A−1 A¯i1 i2 = Ai1 3 33 A3i2 . ∂x3

Remark 3.1.2. In mechanics it is usual to take µA¯ij as the effective conductivity coefficients in a plane, where µ is the thickness of a plate. The homogenized problem of zero order has the form ∂ ¯ ∂ω0 = f (x1 , x2 ), Amj ∂xj ∂xm m,j=1 2

ω0 = 0 for x1 = 0, b, i.e. ∂ ¯ ∂ω0 = µf (x1 , x2 ), µAmj ∂xj ∂xm m,j=1 2

ω0 = 0 for x1 = 0, b. Evidently, for any given positive definite symmetric matrix µA¯ij , i, j = 1, 2 it is possible to find such a constant positive definite symmetric matrix Aij , i, j = 1, 2, 3 that it is related with the given matrix by equality (3.1.22), for example, Aij = A¯ij , i, j = 1, 2, A33 > 0, and Ai3 , A3j = 0, i, j = 1, 2, 3. It means that any heterogeneous conductive plate (3.1.1)–(3.1.3) is ”equivalent” in the sense of the effective conductivity coefficients in a plane to some homogeneous plate. It is remarkable that the analogous property for elasticity coefficients is not true. This question will be discussed in the section 3.3.

So when one replace in the estimate of the theorem u(K) by uB + 0(K−1) 1(K−1) uP + uP , the order of this estimate does not change. It proves the corollary. (K−1) 0(K−1) 1(K−1) + uP + uP does not vanish at Remark 3.1.3 The function uB K the ends of the rod; however, it has the order O(µ ) there. Remark 3.1.4 The plate can be simulated by a thin cylinder Ωµ = G × (−µ/2, µ/2) ⊂ R3 , where G is a two-dimensional domain with a smooth boundary. In this case the the construction of a complete asymptotic expansion is (0) still an open problem. Nevertheless the estimate for uB can be obtained by means of the technique [16], Chapter 4, section 4.1. Consider equation (3.1.1) set in Ωµ with condition (3.1.2) on the both bases of cylinder Ωµ and (3.1.3) on the lateral boundary of the cylinder ∂G × (−µ/2, µ/2). Let ω0 be a solution of equation (3.1.13) for j = 0, supplied with the Dirichlet condition ω0 = 0 on ∂G. Then the estimate can be proved in the same way as (32)-(33) of Chapter 4, section 4.1 [16]: (0) u − uB H 1 (Ωµ ) = O( µmesΩµ )

Statement of the problem.

For s = 2, problem (3.1.1)–(3.1.3) can be regarded as the two-dimensional analog of the elasticity theory system of equations in a plate. Below a three-dimensional formulation (s = 3) will be considered. Consider the elasticity theory system of equations Pu ≡

and with the condition of T -periodicity with respect to x2 . Here b and T are numbers of the order of 1 that are multiples of µ and Aij (ξ) are 3 × 3 matrices whose elements satisfy the conditions of subsection 2.2.1 and are 1-periodic with respect to ξ1 and ξ2 . These elements are assumed to be piecewise smooth functions, while ψ is a C ∞ three-dimensional vector valued function that is T -periodic with respect to x2 .

such that u is 1-periodic with respect to ξ2 and inequality (2.3.36) holds for some where h is a constant four-dimensional vector, rigid displacement w(ξ) = Φ(ξ)h, exists and is unique. Here by a solution of problem (3.2.21) we mean a vector function u(ξ) satisfying the integral identity from subsection 3.1.2. Theorem 3.2.2 can be proved similarly to Theorems 4 and 5 in [130]. The r matrices hri are defined similarly to the matrices hN from Chapter 2. In this l case ⎞ ⎛ 1 0 0 ⎜0 1 0⎟ r ⎟ h∅ = ⎜ ⎝0 0 1⎠ 0 0 0

since N∅r = 0 and N∅ = I. The fourth row of the matrix hri1 is equal to (0, 0, 1). The fact that the first two elements of the row are zeros can be proved, as in Lemma 2.3.6, by using the following relation for the components nkl i1 (ξ) of the matrices Ni1 (ξ): δ3k +δ3l kl nkl ni1 (ξ). (3.2.22) i1 (S3 ξ) = (−1)

It follows from this relation that for k, l ∈ {1, 2} these components are even with respect to ξ3 . The number 1 at the end of the row is explained by the fact that the third column of the matrices Ni1 (ξ) has the form (−ξ3 , 0, 0)∗ , and therefore the third column Nir1 is zero and the coefficient for the rigid displacement (−ξ3 , 0, ξ1 ) in boundary condition (3.2.20) is equal to 1. After determining all Nir ’s and hri ’s by induction on |i|, we obtain a homogenized problem for the three-dimensional vector function ω(x1 , x2 ): this problem is formed by equation (3.2.14) with the boundary conditions

The estimate for the difference of the exact solution and the asymptotic solution can be obtained as in section 3.1.

3.2.4

Proof of Theorem 3.2.1.

As in Lemma 2.3.2, by substituting into (3.2.7)–(3.2.10), we can prove the relation δ3k +δ3l kl nkl ni (ξ); i (S3 ξ) = (−1) kl for the elements hkl i of the matrices hi this relation implies the formula hi = δ3k +δ3l kl kl (−1) hi which yields hi = 0 for k = 3 and l = 3 or for k = 3 and l = 3.

The last relation arises from the integral identity for problem (3.2.7)–(3.2.9) with |i| = 2. Relations (3.2.11) and (3.2.12) can be derived from (3.2.25). Indeed, hkl i1 i 2 =

Equivalent homogeneous plate problem

Here below we discuss the problem of existence of a homogeneous orthotropic plate that is mechanically equivalent to the given heterogeneous locally orthotropic plate. Besides the nine elasticity modules we can variate the thickness of the plate. Here we will find out that in general case an equivalent homogeneous plate does not exist (remind that it always exists for conductivity equation, compare to section 3.1). We formulate the necessary and sufficient conditions of existence of an equivalent homogeneous orthotropic plate and propose the approximating homogeneous plate when these conditions are not true. 3 akl In mechanics it is usual to take µ¯ ¯i1 i2 i3 i4 as the bending characij and µ c teristic and the membrane characteristic of the stiffness of plates, where µ is the thickness of a plate.

(µH)3 cîjkl = µ3 c¯ijkl

(3.3.1)

Clearly, we can calculate the values a ˆkl îjkl from (3.2.27) by replacing ij and c ˆp , µ the modules Ep , µpq , and νpq by unknown constants( E ) ˆpq , and νˆpq and by replacing the brackets by 1/12 (for example, we set ξ32 = 1/12 ). Note that (3.2.27) does not depend on E3 , µ31 , µ32 , ν31 , and ν32 . Thus, from (3.3.1) we ˆ1 , E ˆ2 , µ ˆ21 , νˆ21 , pass to the following equivalent problem: to find five constants E and H that satisfy the eight equations

a ¯11 c¯1122 , = 22 a ¯11 c¯1111 11

If conditions (3.3.4) hold, then five constants for equivalent plate can be found from the following relations: c1111 /¯ a11 µ ˆ21 = a ¯11 νˆ21 = a ¯12 a11 H = 12¯ 22 /H, 12 /¯ 11 , 11 , 2 ˆ2 = (¯ E a22 ¯11 ˆ21 )/H, 22 − a 11 ν

(3.3.5)

Indeed, relation (3.3.4) holds because the right-hand sides of (3.3.2) and (3.3.3) are proportional. We find H by dividing the first equation of (3.3.2) by the first equation of (3.3.3); then we can find µ ˆ21 from the third equation of 3.3.2) and determine νˆ21 as the ratio by dividing the fourth equation of (3.3.2) ˆ1 and E ˆ2 from the first two by the first equation of (3.3.2). Finally, we obtain E equations of (3.3.2). Relations (3.3.3) follow from (3.3.2) and (3.3.4). This result was obtained in cooperation with V. E. Grebennikov. Conditions (3.3.4) hold in particular if the mono-layers are isotropic and symmetric. If conditions (3.3.4) fail, then the equivalent plate does not exist. Nevertheless, one can apply relations (3.3.5) to find an approximation of the five unknowns. The error of this approximation can be evaluated by ∆=

The boundary layer corrector can be constructed similarly to that in section 3.2; the same is true for the justification of the asymptotic expansion: it is similar to that of subsection 2.4.4; the a priori estimate follows from [16], [55], [129].

3.5


The asymptotic analysis of the elasticity equations for homogeneous plates (without strict mathematical justification) was first carried out by A.L.Goldenveizer [59] - [61], and later with mathematical justification by Ph.Ciarlet and P.Destuynder [40], B.Lidsky and S.Nazarov [111]. The review of the results on the asymptotic reduction of dimension from 3D to 2D in the plate theory is given in [38], [39] (see, for example, the assessment in the end of Chapter 3 [38]. For an inhomogeneous plate, the homogenized equation of zero order was obtained by D.Caillerie [31]. As in the general homogenization theory, there are two principal tools in the reduction of dimension from 3D to 2D: the convergence techniques and the asymptotic expansions; as it was stated above, the expansions give more information about the structure of the solution but this technique demands more regularity of the data. The complete asymptotic expansion of a solution of the elasticity theory system of equations for an inhomogeneous plate (taking into account the boundary layers) was constructed by G.Panasenko and M.Reztsov [165] and also in [138],[139],[150]. The plates with rapidly varying thickness were considered in [72],[73]and later in [69]. The singular data models are studied in [191]. We do not discuss in the present book the dimensional reduction for non-linear elasticity, for the shell theory. the review on the state of these questions can be found in [38], [110],[176],[179] and in [97].

Chapter 4

Finite Rod Structures We consider finite rod structures, i.e. finite connected unions of rods. The definition of the considered geometrical model of such structures is given in section 4.1. We introduce the notions of L-convergence and of FL-convergence for such structures. This tool gives the main term of solution to conductivity problem in a finite rod structure. This approach is implemented then to elasticity equation and it is applied to a shape optimization problem of minimal compliance (section 4.2). Further we develop a more refined analysis of fields in finite rod structures including asymptotic expansion of elasticity equation based on the expansions of Chapter 2. Namely, these expansions of Chapter 2 are applied to each bar of finite rod structure and then the boundary layers are constructed in neighborhoods of ends. These boundary layers match the inner expansions of each rod and they are similar to that of section 2.3. Finally, the Stokes and the Navier-Stokes equations are studied in a finite system of tubes (or pipes) that is also a variety of finite rod structures.

4.1

Definitions. L-convergence.

Below we consider the finite rod structures; for example , in the two-dimensional α case the finite rod structure is a connected union of thin rectangles Bh,j,µ . Their thickness has a magnitude µ 0 Bh,j,µ . The ends of these segments are called nodes. Then we consider the boundary value problem for a nonlinear partial derivative equation stated on a finite rod structure. The asymptotic reduction of the stated problem is done. The main mathematical result of the section is the passage to the limit in the boundary value problem as µ tends to zero. The formal procedure of the reduction of the initial problem to a system of algebraic equations is justified in the sense of so called FL-convergence (i.e. convergence of the normalized Dirichlet’s integral). It is

CHAPTER 4. FINITE ROD STRUCTURES

the statement of Theorem 4.1.1. In the case of a scalar elliptic linear problem FL-convergence implies L-convergence, i.e. convergence in normalized L2 norm. The proof of Theorem 4.1.1 uses some auxiliary inequalities (in particular the Poincare´ - Friedrichs inequality for a finite rod structure). These inequalities are proved in Appendix A4.1 and Appendix A4.2.

4.1.1

Finite rod structure

First we define some notions [148]: finite rod structure, nodes, skeleton, sections, nodal domain. Let β1 , ..., βJ be bounded domains in IRs−1 , (s = 2, 3) with a piecewise smooth boundary, Bj,µ (j = 1, ..., J) the cylinders, defined by Bj,µ = {x ∈ Rs | (x2 /µ, ..., xs /µ) ∈ βj , x1 ∈ IR}, α ˜ with and Bh,j,µ the cylinder obtained from Bj,µ by orthogonal transformation Π T T α the matrix α , α = (αil ) and a translation h = (h1 , ..., hs ) . Let eh be an ˜ and h from the vector i(h, α) of s-dimensional vector obtained by means of Π the axis Ox1 with the beginning at the point O . Definition 4.1.1. Let B be a union of all segments eα h when α belongs to a 2 set ∆ ⊂ IRs and h to a set Hα ⊂ IRs , and these sets are independent of µ. Let B be such that any two segments eα h can have only one common point which is the end point for both segments. The set B is called skeleton, the end points of eα h are called nodes. If x0 is an endpoint for a segment e we say that e is an initial segment for x0 . α ˜α We associate the cylinder Bh,j,µ with every eα h and denote by Bh,j,µ the part α of Bh,j,µ enclosed between the two planes passing through the ends of segment ˜α eα h and perpendicular to it (we assume that the bases belong to Bh,j,µ ).

L-convergence method for a finite rod structure

Here we consider finite rod structures described in Remark 4.1.1 stretched between the planes {x1 = 0} and {x1 = 1} with the loading at the intersection of the finite rod structure with the plane {x1 = 1} by a proper distribution of the material. Let G0 , G1 be two (s-1)-dimensional domains belonging to the planes {x1 = 0} and {x1 = 1} respectively. We consider the set Q of finite rod structures intersecting the planes {x1 = 0} and {x1 = 1} such that 1) the skeleton B belongs to a cube [0, 1]s ; 2) the sets of nodes belonging to the domains G0 ⊂ {x1 = 0} and G1 ⊂ {x1 = 1} are not empty; 3) the rod structure Bµ has additional cubes of Remark 4.1.1 Cx0 = (x01 − d0 µ , x01 + d0 µ) × ... × (x0s − d0 µ , x0s + d0 µ) for all nodes x0 = (x01 , ..., x0s ) from G0 ∪ G1 . We suppose that the constant d0 is such that the rod structure without these additional cubes does not intersect the planes {x1 = −d0 µ} and {x1 = 1 + d0 µ}. These assumptions are not crucial; they are introduced for simplicity of description of the method and its application to the shape design. Denote Σ0 the union of the sides of the cubes Cx0 belonging to the plane {x1 = −d0 µ} and Σ1 the union of the sides of the cubes Cx0 belonging to the plane {x1 = 1 + d0 µ}.

We suppose that the problem (4.1.1)-(4.1.4) has the solution, such that for each n−dimensional vector-valued function ϕ(x) which belongs to the space H 1 (Bµ ) and equal to zero on the surface Σ0 , the integral

where Aij are constants such that the matrix (Aij )1≤i,j≤s is positive definite and symmetric. In this linear case problem (4.1.1)-(4.1.4) surely has a unique solution. We develop the asymptotic reduction of the problem as µ tends to zero. Here we introduce two types of ”convergence” : the first is L-convergence, i.e. convergence in the normalized L2 (Bµ ) norm. The necessity of normalization is explained by the small measure of the domain Bµ ( meas Bµ tends to zero). The second type of ”convergence” is FL-convergence, i.e. convergence of specially normalized Dirichlet integral. We describe the formal algorithm of construction of the asymptotic solution (1) uµ of the problem (4.1.1) - (4.1.4). The main theorem is proved; it determines the FL-convergence of the solution uµ of the problem (4.1.1) - (4.1.4) ”to” the (1) asymptotic solution uµ of the problem (4.1.1) - (4.1.4). In the linear case the FL-convergence implies L-convergence. Definition 4.1.5. Let uµ (x) be a sequence of functions from L2 (Bµ ) , u0 (x) ∈ L2 (B ); (so u0 is a function defined on the skeleton B ). One says that uµ L - converges to u0 on Bµ if and only if uµ − u ˜0 L2 (Bµ ) → 0, meas(Bµ )

(µ → 0),

where u ˜0 is an extension of u0 (x) onto Bµ such that the values at each point x0 of the set Bµ+ is equal to the value of u0 at the orthogonal projection of x0 on the corresponding segment of B, and at each connected component of a domain Bµ \Bµ+ we pose u ˜0 equal to its value at the node. The normalization factor 1/ meas(Bµ ) is necessary because meas(Bµ ). Notice that L-convergence is not a convergence 1L2 (Bµ ) = in common sense because the domain depends on small parameters. Denote H1,0 (Bµ ) = {ϕ ∈ H1 (Bµ ), ϕ|Σ0 = 0} and

(4.1.5)

Definition 4.1.6. Let u1,µ (x) and u2,µ (x) be two sequences of functions from H1,0 (Bµ ) . One says that the pair (u1,µ ; u2,µ ) FL - converges if and only if u1,µ ; u2,µ F L(Bµ ) → 0,

(µ → 0).

(4.1.6)

Notice that u1,µ ; u2,µ F L(Bµ ) is not a norm in a general case. Nevertheless in the linear case for the coercive operator (1) it is a norm of the difference of two functions. The asymptotic reduction of the problem (4.1.1)-(4.1.4) analogous to that of [134], [136] and to FL-convergence techniques from [148] deduces it to the algebraic system of equations. To each segment e ⊂ B , (e = eα h )we assign a collection of n−dimensional vectors X0 , ..., Xs , which satisfies the following three conditions: 1) s Ai (X1 , ..., Xs ) νij = 0, (4.1.7) i=1

where j = 1, ..., s − 1, and the vectors

Theorem 4.1.1. Let uµ be an exact solution of the problem (4.1.1) (1) (4.1.4) and let uµ be an asymptotic solution satisfying the assumptions (4.1.7) - (4.1.9). Then the estimate holds : √ uµ ; u(1) µ F L(Bµ ) ≤ C µ,

√ i.e. uµ L-converges to u0 and the rate of the FL-convergence is O( µ). The situation changes in the case of elasticity system (see [148],[44],[67]) where the Korn inequality constant depends on µ, nevertheless the discrete model (4.1.7)-(4.1.9) seems to be valid in the case when all rods of the structure work in the tension-compression regime. Thus Theorem 4.1.1 justifies in some sense asymptotic approximation (4.1.10). In case of bending or torsion regime of some rods more general discrete model should be applied. This model was obtained in [148] and (for the junction of two rods) in [168] (see also sections 4.4 and 2.3.5). Remark 4.1.5. Formulation (4.1.1)-(4.1.4) can be generalized: we can consider right-hand side in the equation (4.1.1) that has a support localized in some c0 µ-vicinities of the nodes and that its magnitude is of order 1/µ. Its average appears in the right-hand side of equations (4.1.8). This generalization has been developed in the Ph.D. thesis of R.Chiheb.

4.2

Shape optimization of a finite rod structure.

Below a new algorithm of optimal design based on the asymptotic analysis of rod structures and L-convergence is proposed. It could be applied in case when the given measure of the optimal domain is much less than the square in 2D case or cube in 3D case of the characteristic size of the problem. This case is too often: the modelling computations for various problems of optimal design by existing algorithms show ( [3], [4], [34], [186]) that as a rule the optimal structure is a set of connected bars, i.e. rod structure. To obtain this answer these algorithms start from the full 2D or 3D domain, square or cube for example. They iterate then (on the micro-level) the distribution of small anisotropic holes to obtain the optimal domain. Even if the optimal domain is not a rod structure normally the penalization procedure is applied to the optimal domain in order to transform the answer into some sort of a rod structure. The proposed below algorithm starts from the lattice structure from the very beginning and deals with lattice structure at each step. This principle simplifies the optimization procedure. On the other hand the proposed approach differs from that of the algorithms of optimal topologies of discrete structures (see review [70] ) because it starts from the continuous media formulation of the problem containing small parameter, and then obtains the discrete formulation as a result of the asymptotic analysis of the initial problem. This approach allows to estimate the accuracy of thus obtained discrete models and hence of the optimization result of the initial model. We present as well some numerical experiments. The structure of the section is as follows. We consider the boundary value problem for non linear partial derivative equations stated on a finite rod structure as in previous section and state the

174


problem of minimization of the stored energy (compliance) of the body with constraint of the given measure of a finite rod structure. The initial stored energy integral is replaced by the stored energy corresponding to the asymptotic solution obtained in the previous section. Then we introduce the initial configuration [70] as such a skeleton of finite rod structure that contains all admissible skeletons of finite rod structures. We minimize the approximated stored energy by an iterative algorithm of ”frozen fluxes”; it is a discrete analog of the iterative algorithm from [35]. At each step of this algorithm we fix the fluxes obtained in the previous iteration for all rods and redistribute then the thicknesses of the rods to minimize the stored energy . We give some results of numerical experiments (optimal dam, optimal cantilever arm, optimal bridge) calculated by the software OPTIFOR that implements the described method.

4.2.1

Stored energy as the cost

We consider the shape design problem of minimizing the stored energy (compliance) of finite rod structures of section 4.1 under the constraints of given vector-valued constant T and of given total measure of a finite rod structure that is µs−1 . The stored energy of the body E Bµ =

∈ Q EB µ .

(4.2.2)

Thus the physical sense of the small parameter µ is the power (s − 1)−1 of the ratio of given measure of Bµ (given quantity of the material) to the power s of the characteristic size of the problem. We approximate the energy integral (4.2.1) by the stored energy integral (1) related to the asymptotic solution uµ

4.2.2

Simplification of the set of finite rod structures. Initial configuration

Thus the initial partial derivative equation problem (4.1.1)-(4.1.4) is asymptotically reduced to the algebraic system (4.1.7)-(4.1.9) for a set of unknowns (X0k , ..., Xsk ), k = 1, ..., N. In the linear case when the matrix of this system is non-singular the problem is stable to the small perturbations of the skeleton B. Indeed the following proposition holds. Proposition 4.2.1. Let Bµ (ε) be a finite rod structure, such that each α segment eα h (ε) of its skeleton is obtained from eh by means of orthogonal transformation with the matrix Id + O(ε), i.e. identity matrix Id perturbed by a matrix that is O(ε), by translation on the distance O(ε), and contraction in ˜ α , and 1 + O(ε) times. We suppose that the cross-sections of the cylinders B h,j,µ α ˜ their perturbed images B (ε), are of the same measure. Let the perturbed imh,j,µ ages of the segments with the end points in G0 and G1 have also the end points in these domains and no other segments of the perturbed skeleton have the end points in these domains. Then the solution of perturbed system (4.1.7)-(4.1.9) (X0k (ε), ..., Xsk (ε)), k = 1, ..., N, tends to the solution of non-perturbed system (X0k , ..., Xsk ), k = 1, ..., N, as ε tends to zero. It is the trivial corollary of the regular perturbations theory of linear operators. This obvious result gives us an opportunity of approximation of the finite rod structure’s geometry. We introduce the initial configuration BI as such skeleton of finite rod structure, that contains all admissible skeletons of finite rod structures, i.e. we consider only such structures that their skeletons belong to the initial configuration. We suppose also that the nodes of the admissible structures belong to the set of nodes of the initial configuration. For example we can choose an ε−periodic lattice-structure of the next Chapter with µ 0.

Remark 4.2.1. The asymptotic expansion of the solution of elasticity problem stated in the finite rod system considered in the next section could be used for the correction of the first order discrete model (4.1.7 ) - (4.1.9 ). Remark 4.2.2. The optimal design problem (4.1.1)-(4.2.4), (4.2.1),(4.2.2) can be generalized: we can consider equation (4.1.1) with the given right hand side function fµ (x), ”concentrated” in the neighborhoods of some fixed interior nodes (end points) O1 , ..., ON , included in all admissible finite rod structures. Let Ti , i = 1, ..., N be vector-valued constants. Let r0 be a positive value such that all balls with the centers in the nodes and with the radii µr0 belong to Bµ . Denote Y (Oi ) such ball with the center Oi . Define fµ (x) =

Ti µs−1 measY (Oi )

in each ball Y (Oi ), and define fµ (x) = 0 out of the union of these balls. Consider the problem (4.1.1’), (4.2.2) - (4.2.4) where (4.1.1’) is the non-homogeneous equation (4.1.1), i.e. s i=1

∂/∂xi ( Ai (∇x uµ )) = fµ (x),

Some results of numerical experiment

Here we present some two-dimensional and three-dimensional numerical examples calculated by the OPTIFOR software which implements the described method. We give below the value of compliance f T x for every optimal structure. 1. The first example deals with the problem of the reinforcement of a dam. The initial configuration and the distribution of boundary forces are shown in Fig.4.2.2

The left end is fixed while the vertical force is applied to the right end. The optimal result was obtained after 30 iterations.

CONDUCTIVITY: AN ASYMPTOTIC EXPANSION

3. The third example is an ”optimal bridge”. The initial configuration is a square lattice. The structure is supported at the edges of its base. A vertical point force is applied in the middle of the lower side. The initial configuration and the boundary conditions are symmetric with respect to the axis of the force. Therefore the optimal structure is also symmetric, and the computations can be performed on half the initial configuration. The results are presented in the Fig. 4.2.6.

Conductivity: an asymptotic expansion

4.3.1

Construction of asymptotic expansion

In this section we consider finite rod structures Bµ defined in Definition 4.1.2 without the additional cubes. ˜ = α(x − h), whose first For any segment e = eα h , we define local variables x component is x ˜1 . Consider the conductivity equation in Bµ 5 f e (˜ x1 ), x ∈ S0 , (4.3.1) Lx u = ∆u = 0, x∈ / S0 , u|∂1 Bµ = 0,

(4.3.2)

∂u |∂ B = 0, ∂n 2 µ

(4.3.3)

184


where ∂1 Bµ is a part of the boundary that coincides with the base of one (or ˜ α (we assume that the nodal point corresponding to several) of the cylinders B hj this base is an end-point only for one segment e ⊂ B), ∂2 Bµ = ∂Bµ \∂1 Bµ . We call ”interior nodes” all nodes not belonging to ∂1 Bµ . We assume that f e (t) ∈ C ∞ . In what follows we omit the superscript e for f. We seek the solution u(x) in the class of functions H 1 (Bµ ). Below we construct the asymptotic expansion of the solution to problem (4.3.1)-(4.3.3) as µ → 0. Theorem 4.3.1. There exists a unique solution to problem (4.3.1)-(4.3.3). This is a well known result on existence and uniqueness of solution to a mixed boundary value conductivity problem ( [85],[86]). The domain Bµ here depends on the small parameter µ but as we see in Appendix A4.2, the Poincar´ é-Friedrichs inequality constant is independent of µ. This implies Theorem 4.3.2. The a priori estimate holds for a solution to problem (4.3.1)-(4.3.3): u2H 1 (Bµ ) ≤ Cf 2L2 (Bµ ) , where constant C does not depend on µ. We construct the asymptotic solution in two stages. First we construct an asymptotic solution outside neighborhoods of the nodes, and then we build the boundary layers. At the first step for every segment e an asymptotic solution is sought in the form of Bakhvalov’s ansatz (section 2.2); in the isotropic case all Nl = 0 except of N0 = 1 and so this ansatz is just a function ve of the longitudinal variable x˜1 , where x ˜ = αe (x − h). This function ve satisfies the second order differential equation (see section 2.2). For every rod this function is multiplied by a cutting function ρ˜ that is, equal to 1 on the main part of segment e and that vanishes in some const µ−vicinities of the ends. Of course, this multiplication perturbs the right hand side and generates some finite support discrepancy in the equation near the nodes. At the second step we first construct the Taylor expansion of the right hand side in the const µ−vicinities of the ends and we obtain the elliptic boundary layer problems with finite right hand sides set in the bundles of half-infinite cylinders related to every node. Such boundary layer problems have solutions stabilizing to constants on every outlet of the bundle if and only if the right hand side is orthogonal to constants. This orthogonality condition generates the flux balance equation (4.3.9) in every node. On the other hand we would like to have the boundary layer solutions exponentially decaying at infinity. It means that the stabilization constants should be equal to zero. It can be seen that these limit constants may be manipulated and changed by varying the values of functions ve in the ends of segments e. It gives us a possibility to vanish all stabilization limit constants by equating all values of functions ve in the node (probably with some constant right hand sides δve , see (4.3.10)). Finally we get the second order ordinary differential equations on the skeleton supplied with the junction conditions for the values of ve′ and ve in the

4.3.


185

nodes, as well as with the boundary conditions in the nodes of ∂1 Bµ and ∂2 Bµ . At the third step we seek an asymptotic solution to this problem set on the skeleton in the form of a regular series ansatz (4.3.12) and we obtain the all terms of the asymptotic expansion, and in particular, the leading term vl0 satisfying (4.3.23)-(4.3.27). The justification as usual (see section 2.4.4) is developed as follows: we truncate the ansatz at some level J neglecting the terms of order O(µJ ) (in H 1 −norm) and calculate all discrepancies in the right hand sides of the equation and eventually boundary conditions. We check that these discrepancies are of order O(µJ−1 ) in L2 −norm. Then we apply the a priori estimate and obtain that u − u(J) H 1 (Bµ ) = O(µJ−1 ). Finally we improve this estimate comparing u(J) to u(J−1) and estimating the difference u(J) − u(J−1) H 1 (Bµ ) = O(µJ−1 ). Hence, the estimate holds: u − u(J−1) H 1 (Bµ ) = O(µJ−1 ) and so, u − u(J) H 1 (Bµ ) = O(µJ ). 1. We seek a formal asymptotic solution of problem (4.3.1),(4.3.3) outside neighborhoods of the nodes on any section Se corresponding to the segment e = eα h of the set B, of the form u ˜(∞) ∼ e

where βe stands for the cross-section of the cylinder corresponding to e (see the definition of a finite rod structure). If (4.3.9) is satisfied asymptotically exactly, then problems (4.3.71 ), (4.3.72 ) have solutions that stabilize exponentially to constants on every half-infinite cylinder as |z| → ∞. We keep the notation Ce for these constants x1 (x0 )) From the representations (4.3.5),(4.3.6) it follows that if the value of ve (˜ ∞ changes by a value denoted δve , then the value of Ce in the sum l=0 µl Nl0 (z) changes also by δve . Then we are left with the problem of finding δve such that (ve1 (˜ x1 (x0 )) + δve1 ) − (ve2 (˜ x1 (x0 )) + δve2 ) ∼ 0,

If x0 ∈ ∂1 Bµ , then on the part of ∂Πx0 ,z,∞ corresponding to ∂1 Bµ , under change of variable z = (x − x0 )/µ we prescribe the condition Nl0 = 0 instead of boundary condition (4.3.72 ) on this part of the boundary. Then the analogue of Lemma 4.3.1 holds for this problem, but the solvability condition (4.3.8)is no

long necessary. The solution stabilizes to a constant Ce . So the condition at the node x0 takes the form (ve (˜ x1 (x0 )) + δve ) ∼ 0, (4.3.11) where δve is chosen so that the solution Nl0 , modified in such a way that it satisfies boundary condition Nl0 = −Ce instead of Nl0 = 0 on the part of the boundary corresponding to ∂1 Bµ , stabilizes to zero. More precisely, we find first the limit constants atinfinity Cel for each Nl0 ∞ and then prescribe condition (4.3.10) with δve = − l=0 µl Cel . Seeking ve in the form of a power series in µ, ve =

Indeed, for any l, we solve first problem (4.3.7) for Nl0 (taking for vel the matching condition vel 1 (˜ x1 (x0 )) = vel 2 (˜ x1 (x0 )), ∀e1 (x0 ), e2 (x0 ), instead of (4.3.14)) and we obtain different limit constants Cel on the outlets (the subscript e means that the outlet corresponds to the segment e of skeleton B); we redefine then Nl0 (z) replacing vel in (4.3.14) by vel +δvel with δvel = −Cel ; this replacement leads to stabilization of redefined Nl0 (z) to zero. So after such redefinition we have Nl0 tending to zero on the outlets and we obtain condition (4.3.14) for vel . Extend δvel on B in such a way that (δvel )′ = 0 in some neighborhood of each node.

We denote by u(J) the truncated (partial) sum of the asymptotic series (4.3.5), obtained by neglecting the terms of order O(µJ ) (in the H 1 (Bµ )−norm. Choosing J sufficiently large, we can show for any K that equation (4.3.1) and conditions (4.3.2) and (4.3.3) are satisfied with remainders of order O(µK ) (in the L2 (Bµ )−norm). Hence , using the a priori estimate for problem (4.3.1)(4.3.3) given by Theorem 4.3.2, we obtain as in section 2.2, the following assertion. Theorem 4.3.3There holds the estimate u − u(J) H 1 (Bµ ) = O(µJ ).

(4.3.22)

This estimate justifies the asymptotic construction.

4.3.2

The leading term of the asymptotic expansion

Thus the limit problem for the leading term v0 of the asymptotic expansion is as follows: the equation ve 0 ” = f (˜ x1 ), x ∈ e, (4.3.23) supplied by the matching conditions at the nodes x0 that are end-points for at / ∂1 Bµ ) least two segments (and x0 ∈ ve′ 0 measβe (˜ x1 (x0 )) = 0, (4.3.24) e(x0 )

and ve1 0 (˜ x1 (x0 )) = ve2 0 (˜ x1 (x0 )),

∀e1 (x0 ), e2 (x0 ),

(4.3.25)

and boundary conditions at the nodes x0 in ∂1 Bµ or in ∂2 Bµ , but such that they are end-points for only one segment, of the form ve′ 0 (˜ x1 (x0 )) = 0,

x0 ∈ ∂2 Bµ

(4.3.26)

ve 0 (˜ x1 (x0 )) = 0,

x0 ∈ ∂1 Bµ .

(4.3.27)

and Extend v0 on Bµ in a following way. For any connected component of S0 , corresponding to the segment e we define v(x) = ve 0 (˜ x1 (x)), and for any connected component Πx0 of Bµ \S0 containing x0 we define v(x) = ve 0 (˜ x1 (x0 )), as a constant. Then the estimate (4.3.22) yields √ u − vL2 (Bµ ) / meas Bµ = O( µ).

Construction of asymptotic expansion

Let as above ξ ′ be (s−1)−dimensional vector of the last s−1 components of the vector ξ = (ξ1 , . . . , ξs ), i.e. ξ ′ = (ξ2 , . . . , ξs ). Denote by Sα the transformation defined by relations S2 ξ ′ = (−ξ2 , ξ3 ), S3 ξ ′ = (ξ2 , −ξ3 ) for s = 3, and by S2 ξ ′ = −ξ2 for s = 2. In what follows we assume that Sα β = β and Sα βj = βj , and we define Sα ξ = (ξ1 , Sα ξ ′ ), α = 2, ..., s − 1. This property means certain symmetry of the cross-sections of the rods of the finite rod structure Bµ . As in section 4.3, for any segment e = eα ˜ = h , we define local variables x α(x − h), whose first component is x ˜1 .

We seek the solution uµ (x) in the class of s−dimensional vector-valued functions of H 1 (Bµ ). Below we construct the asymptotic expansion of the solution to problem (4.4.1)-(4.4.3) as µ → 0 under some assumptions P F1 and P F2 of geometrical rigidity of the frame. These assumptions will be formulated below for the limit problem. Theorem 4.4.1. There exists a unique solution to problem (4.4.1)-(4.4.3).

The domain Bµ here depends on the small parameter µ and therefore an a priori estimate can also depend on this small parameter. On the other hand as we have seen in section 4.2 the a priori estimate for analogous problem for conductivity equation does not depend on the small parameter because the Poincare-Friedrichs ´ inequality constant is independent of µ. Is elasticity equation different in this sense? To answer this question we should study the Korn inequality constant for the domain Bµ . This constant depends on µ. Indeed, the following assertion holds. Theorem 4.4.2. For any µ small enough for any finite rod structure Bµ there is a vector valued function vµ ∈ H 1 (Bµ ) such that vµ |∂1 Bµ = 0, ∇vµ 2L2 (Bµ ) ≥ c1 µs−1 and EBµ (vµ ) ≤ c2 µs that is EBµ (vµ ) ≤ (

c2 )µ∇vµ 2L2 (Bµ ) , c1

Proof. α Without lost of generality we can prove this assertion for one rod Bh,j,µ such that one of its bases belongs to ∂1 Bµ (we pass to the general case extending vµ α by zero all over Bµ \Bh,j,µ ). α We can consider the cylinder Bj,µ instead of Bh,j,µ because the orthogonal transformation and the translation do not change the order of the values ∇vµ 2L2 (Bµ ) and EBµ (vµ ).

So, let us consider cylinder π = (−1, 1) × βµ , where βµ = {(x′ /µ ∈ β}, β is (s − 1)−dimensional bounded domain with a piecewise-smooth boundary (satisfying the cone condition; in the two-dimensional case β is an interval), i.e. there exist constants c1 , c2 , c3 > 0, independent of µ, and the s-dimensional vector-valued function wµ (x), such that wµ ∈ H 1 (π) and wµ |x1 =±1 = 0, wµ 2L2 (π) ≥ c1 µs−1 ,

∇wµ 2L2 (π) ≥ c2 µs−1 ,

Eπ (wµ ) ≤ c3 µs . For example , for s = 2, µ < 1/2 one can build the following function, satisfying these conditions: ⎧

⎪ ρ(x /µ)ρ((1 + x )/µ)ρ((x − 1)/µ) −x ⎪ 2 1 1 1 ⎪ for x1 ≤ 0 ⎪ ⎨ 1 + x1

wµ = ⎪ ⎪ ⎪ x2 ρ(x1 /µ)ρ((1 + x1 )/µ)ρ((x1 − 1)/µ) for x1 > 0, ⎪ ⎩ 1−x 1

where ρ(t) is an even continuously differentiable function, 0 ≤ ρ(t) ≤ 1, equal to zero for |t| ≤ 1/3 and equal to 1 for |t| ≥ 2/3. (In the case s = 3 the two first components are the same and the third one is equal to zero.) Indeed, ∂w2 2 2 ) dx = 2 meas β µs−1 , ∇wµ L2 (π) ≥ ( π ∂x1 wµ 2L2 (π) ≥ w22 dx = meas β µs−1 , π

and

Eπ (wµ ) = Eπ∩({x1 ≤−1+µ}∪{|x1 |≤µ}∪{x1 ≥1−µ}) (wµ ) = O(µs ), ∂w2 ∂w2 ∂w1 1 because ∂w ∂x2 = 0, and because the ∂x1 = ±1, ∂x2 = O(1), ∂x1 = O(1), s strains differ from zero on the set of the measure O(µ ). By the linear application α , and in we could map this constructed vector-function to any cylinder Bh,j,µ particular, the cylinder having a base in ∂1 Bµ . Thus, the theorem is proved. This theorem shows that the Korn inequality constant depends on µ. Nevertheless the Korn inequality holds true in this case with the constant that is some negative power of µ. Theorem 4.4.3. Any vector-valued function u ∈ H 1 (Bµ ), such that u|∂1 Bµ = 0, satisfies the Korn inequality

∇u2L2 (Bµ ) ≤ CK µ−q EBµ (u), where CK and q are independent of µ.

Proof. The proof of this theorem was given first by constructing an extension of u from Bµ to some domain which does not depend on µ (see [145]). We give it here below in Appendix 5.A2. This theorem with the Poincar´ é-Friedrichs inequality implies Theorem 4.4.4. The a priori estimate holds for a solution to problem (4.4.1)-(4.4.3): u2H 1 (Bµ ) ≤ Cµ−q f 2L2 (Bµ ) , where constant C does not depend on µ. Let us remind the definition at section 2.3 of the matrix-valued functions of rigid displacements of an infinite bar { ξ = (ξ1 , . . . , ξs ) ∈ IRs , ξ1 ∈ IR; ξ ′ = (ξ2 , . . . , ξs ) ∈ β }. For s = 2 it is the identity matrix 1 0 Φ = I = , 0 1 while for s = 3 it depends on the rapid ⎛ 1 Φ(ξ) = ⎝ 0 0

Denote d the number of columns of Φ (i.e. d = 2 for s = 2 and d = 4 for s = 3). Moreover, we define as well the extended matrix of rigid displacements in IRs : for s = 2 it is 1 0 −ξ2 J˜(ξ) = , 0 1 ξ1 while for s = 3 it is ⎛

As in the previous section we will consider segments e which belong to the set of segments eα h constituting the skeleton B. Let us define for any segment e of B the matrix Γe of dimension d × d such that for any z ∈ IRs , J˜∗ (z)αe∗ = Γe J˜∗ (αe z), where z is a column (z1 , . . . , zs )∗ . It can be proved immediately that

For s = 2, let cos θ sin θ αe = , θ ∈ IR; −sin θ cos θ let us check the last scalar equality of the relation J˜∗ (z)αe∗ = Γe J˜∗ (αe z). The last row of J˜∗ (z)αe∗ is (−z2 , z1 )αe∗ ∗ ∗ −z2 cos θ + z1 sin θ −(αe z)2 = = z2 sin θ + z1 cos θ (αe z)1 because αe z =

and therefore the components (αe z)1 and (αe z)2 of this vector satisfy the above relation. The first two scalar equalities of relation J˜∗ (z)αe∗ = Γe J˜∗ (αe z) are evident because Iαe∗ = αe∗ I. So, for s = 2 lemma is proved. If s = 3 let us check firstly the last three scalar equalities of the relation J˜∗ (z)αe∗ = Γe J˜∗ (αe z). For any k ∈ {1, 2, 3}, denote Jk (z) = Πk z, where ⎛

So, γ ∗ (αe )γ(αe ) = I, and the matrix γ(αe ) is an orthogonal matrix. Consider now the 3×3−matrix J˜last (z) constituted of the three last columns ∗ of the matrix J˜(z). Its transposition J˜last (αe z) consists of three lines: ⎛ ⎞ J1∗ (αe z) ∗ ⎝ J2∗ (αe z)⎠ = γ(αe )(αe J˜last (z))∗ = γ(αe )J˜last (z)αe∗ ; ∗ J3 (αe z) so,

We suppose also for simplicity of presentation that for any interior node there are three non-coplanar (if s = 3), respectively two non-collinear (if s = 2), segments e having this node as an end-point. This condition will be called the non-coplanarity condition. Remark 4.4.1 In case s = 2 the following conditions analogous to P F2 ˜ e be any scalar function depending on the is satisfied automatically. Let Ψ variable x ˜1 , having two derivatives along segment e ⊂ B, satisfying the matching conditions at the interior nodes x0

˜ e2 (x0 ) ˜ e1 (x0 ) dΨ dΨ , = d˜ x1 d˜ x1

and vanishing at all nodes (the derivative vanishes as well at the nodes x0 ∈ ∂1 Bµ . ) Then the following inequality holds

with a constant c depending only on B. We construct the asymptotic solution as usual in two stages. First we construct an asymptotic solution outside neighborhoods of the nodes, and then we build the boundary layers. At the first step for every segment e an asymptotic solution is sought in the form of the ansatz of section 2.3 related to some d−dimensional (d = 2 if s = 2; d = 4 if s = 3) vector-valued function ωe depending on the longitudinal variable x˜1 , where x ˜ = αe (x − h). The components of vector-valued function ωe satisfy some ordinary differential equations (homogenized high order equations). For every segment e this ansatz is multiplied by a cutting function ρ˜ that is, equal to 1 on the main part of segment e and that vanishes in some const µ−vicinities of the ends. Of course, this multiplication perturbs the right hand side and generates some finite support discrepancy in the equation near the nodes. At the second step we first construct the Taylor expansion of the right hand side in the const µ−vicinities of the nodes and we obtain the elliptic boundary layer problems with finite right hand sides set in the bundles of half-infinite cylinders related to every node. Such boundary layer problems have solutions stabilizing to some rigid displacement on every outlet of the bundle if and only if the right hand side is orthogonal to all rigid displacements. This orthogonality condition generates the stress balance equation (4.4.11) in every inner node. On the other hand we would like to have the boundary layer solutions exponentially decaying at infinity. It means that the stabilization limit rigid displacements

202


should be equal to zero. It can be seen that these limit constants may be manipulated and changed by varying the values of functions ωe and its derivatives ∂ωe2 ∂ωe2 ˜1 in the ends of segments e. It gives us a possibility to vanish all sta∂x ˜1 , ..., ∂ x bilization limit rigid displacements by equating all values of functions ωe and its ∂ω 2 ∂ω 2 derivatives ∂ x˜1e , ..., ∂ x˜1e in the node multiplied by some passage matrix Γe . This matrix is defined as a matrix of orthogonal transform of rigid displacements. Finally we get the second order ordinary differential equations on the skeleton supplied with the junction conditions for the values and for some derivatives of ωe in the nodes, as well as with the boundary conditions in the nodes of ∂1 Bµ and ∂2 Bµ . At the third step we seek an asymptotic solution to this problem set on the skeleton in the form of a regular series ansatz and we obtain the all terms of the asymptotic expansion, and in particular, the leading term satisfying (4.4.55)(4.4.72). The justification as usual (see section 2.4.4) is developed as follows: we truncate the ansatz at some level J neglecting the terms of order O(µJ ) (in H 1 −norm) and calculate all discrepancies in the right hand sides of the equation and eventually boundary conditions. We check that these discrepancies are of order O(µJ−1 ) in L2 −norm. Then we apply the a priori estimate and obtain that

u − u(J) H 1 (Bµ ) = O(µJ−1−q ). Factor µ−q appeared here due to the dependency of the Korn inequality constant on µ. This dependency could be made more precise ( [75], [118] ), but for our study the exact value of q is not too important because we have constructed the complete asymptotic expansion, for any J satisfying the equation with accuracy O(µJ−1 ). Finally we improve this estimate comparing u(J+q+1) to u(J) and estimating the difference u(J+q+1) − u(J) H 1 (Bµ ) = O(µJ ). On the other hand, u(J+q+1) − uH 1 (Bµ ) = O(µJ ). Hence, the estimate holds: u − u(J) H 1 (Bµ ) = O(µJ ). 1. We seek a formal asymptotic solution of problem (4.4.1),(4.4.3) on any section Se corresponding to the segment e = eα h of the set B, of the form u ˜(∞) ∼ e

Seeking a formal asymptotic solution of problem (4.4.6), (4.4.11), (4.4.14), (4.4.15) in the form (4.4.5) of a power series in µ, we find that , as in Chapter 2, all the vel are determined from the recursive sequence of equations of the form R˜ v e l = f˜l (˜ x1 ),

here f˜l and Ψl are defined in terms of the functions v˜e l1 with l1 < l, f˜0 = (f˜1 , 0, . . . , 0), and Ψ0 = 0. The constant vectors δV Vel are defined in terms of the 0 solution Nl of problems (4.4.9), found under the assumption that δV Vel = 0 in (4.4.18) and (4.4.20); afterwards Nl0 (z) are redefined so that they stabilize to zero as |z| → +∞ (as above). Indeed, for any l, we solve first problem (4.4.9) for Nl0 and we obtain different limit rigid displacements J˜Cel on the outlets (the subscript e means that the outlet corresponds to the segment e of B); we redefine then Nl0 (z) replacing Vel at the end of the segment e in (4.4.9) by Vel + δV Vel where δV Vel is such that l l Γe δV Ve = −Ce ; this replacement leads to stabilization of redefined Nl0 (z) to zero. So after such redefinition we have Nl0 tending to zero on the outlets and we obtain conditions (4.4.18) and (4.4.20) for Vel . Problems (4.4.16)-(4.4.20) split into a pair of problems, for v˜1l and for (˜ v2l , . . . , v˜dl )∗ : (i) for any l we solve first a problem for an s−dimensional vector w ˜ l (˜ x1 ) e l (denoted w ˜ (˜ x1 ) on each segment e ⊂ B) consisting of -the equation 2 e l ˜1 (˜ x1 ) ¯d w E = f˜l,1 (˜ x1 ), x ∈ e, d˜ x21

The unique solvability of these variational problems follows from the Riesz functional representation theorem for a bounded (due to P F1 and P F2 conditions) linear functional on a Hilbert space. We denote by u(J) the truncated (partial) sum of the asymptotic series (4.4.4),(4.4.5),(4.4.8) obtained by neglecting the terms of order O(µJ ) (in the H 1 (Bµ )−norm. Choosing J sufficiently large, we can show for any K that equation (4.4.1) and conditions (4.4.2) and (4.4.3) are satisfied with remainders of order O(µK ) (in the L2 (Bµ )−norm. Hence , using the a priori estimate for problem (4.4.1)-(4.4.3) given by Theorem 4.4.3, we obtain as in section 2.2, the following assertion. Theorem 4.4.5There holds the estimate u − u ˜(J) H 1 (Bµ ) = O(µJ ). More general cases are studied in [119] (non-symmetrical section of a bar, when the conditions of the very beginning of the present section are not respected) and in [121] (the two-dimensional case).

Flows in tube structures

In case of flows in thin domains like finite rod structures these domains are called here below tube structures. The Navier-Stokes problem stated in tube structures (or finite rod structures), i.e. in connected finite unions of the thin cylinders with the ratio of the diameter to the height of the order µ r0 . Suppose also that these functions (and r0 ) do not depend on µ. Thus we have defined f in small domains obtained from supp fj by a contraction in 1/µ times with the centers Oj . We define f as zero in all other points. Let f ∈ C 1 , ν > 0. Let Hdiv=0 (B µ ) be space of vector valued functions from H 1 (B µ ) with van0 µ µ ishing divergence, let Hdiv =0 (B ) be the subspace of Hdiv =0 (B ) of functions vanishing on the boundary. Suppose that g can be continued in B µ as a vector valued function gˆ of Hdiv=0 (B µ ). The variational formulation is as follows: find 0 µ u ∈ Hdiv=0 (B µ ) such that u − gˆ ∈ Hdiv =0 (B ), and such that it satisfies to the integral identity

The axes e e Ox1j , ..., Oxsj form a cartesian coordinate system.

Indeed, the choice of the constants cl j = −ˆ cl j and cˆl j from (4.5.19) and condition (4.5.4) give relation (4.5.23). 0 It is known (for example [120]) that there exists the unique solution {¯ uBLO , l BLO0 BLO0 stabilizes to zero at infinity (on every p¯l } of this problem such that u¯l BLO0 stabilizes on every branch of ΩO0 , associated with branch of ΩO0 ) and ¯l BLO0 ∞j own constant p ¯ ).

Obviously, this pair {uBLO l l BLOj BLOj and pl , j = 1, ..., n, are not defined The boundary layer functions ul in the vicinity of O. Therefore we should change a little bit the formulas of ua and pa far from the nodes Oj , j = 0, ..., n. e Let ηj (x1j ) be a smooth function defined on each segment ej , let it be one ej e if |x1 − |ej |/2| ≥ |ej |/4 and let it be zero if |x1j − |ej |/2| ≤ |ej |/8. Let η(x) = ej µ ηj (x1 ) for each cylinder Bj and let η = 1 on each γjµ . Then we redefine ua and pa as

The consequence of this redefinition is a small discrepancy in the right hand side of the equations of order O(exp(−c/µ)) with the positive constant c : now we have the relations

on ∂B µ , where ΨH 1 (B µ ) = O(exp(−c/µ)), ΦL2 (B µ ) = O(µK−1+(s−1)/2 )

(4.5.32)

with a positive constant c and

Ψdx = 0,

(4.5.33)

Bµ

because ∂B µ (˜ ua , n)ds = ∂B µ (g, n)ds = 0. We are going to prove the estimate u − u ã H 1 (B µ ) = O(µK−1+(s−1)/2 ),

(4.5.34)

where c1 > 0 does not depend on µ. First we construct a function ϕ such that v = ∇ϕ is a solution of the equation div v = Ψ, x ∈ B µ ,

(v, n) = 0, x ∈ ∂B µ ,

i.e. let ϕ be a solution of the Neumann problem ∆ϕ = Ψ, x ∈ B µ ,

∂ϕ = 0, x ∈ ∂B µ . ∂n

The existence of this solution is provided by the condition B µ Ψdx = 0. As 2 2 µ the boundary belongs to C then ϕ ∈ H (B ). If we consider the solution with vanishing average B µ ϕdx = 0, then we apply the Poincare inequality for B µ (cf. Appendix 4.A.2): 1

where the constant A does not depend on µ. Thus we obtain the estimate ϕH 1 (B µ ) = O(exp(−c/µ)) and therefore we can use Agmon, Duglas and Nirenberg [2]theory and obtain the estimate ϕH 2 (B µ ) = O(exp(−c2 /µ)), where the positive constant c2 does not depend on µ. Therefore v ∈ H 1 (B µ ) and vH 1 (B µ ) = O(exp(−c2 /µ)).

225


The second step is the construction of such a function w = rot ψ that w = −v on ∂B µ . This construction is described in [87] and it has a ”local N nature.” We make a partition of unity 1 = k=1 δk on B µ , in such a way that all supports of δk have the diameters of order µ and satisfy to the condition of the existence of such a change of variables that the procedure of [87] ch.1, sect. 2 can be applied and the corresponding vector valued function ψk can be constructed for every support, i.e. rot ψk |∂B µ = δk v|∂B µ . All these supports have non-empty intersections ∆k with the boundary of B µ . Moreover we can make homothetic dilatations ξ = (x − Ak )/µ in 1/µ times with some centers Ak for every support in such a way that its image σk does not depend on µ. All these σk can be ”uniformed”, i.e. can be extended up to a finite number (independent of µ ) of the domains σ such that all other domains could be obtained from them by rotations and translations. The functions δk can be taken satisfying relation δk (x) = δ˜k ((x − Ak )/µ), where the functions δ˜k do not depend on µ. Thus the problem of construction of all vector valued functions ψk is reduced to a finite (independent of µ ) number of problems : construct such a vector valued function ψ˜α that rotξ ψ˜α |∂B µ = δ˜α v|∂B µ and take ψα (x) = µδ˜α ((x − Ak )/µ). In this case we can estimate rotξ ψ˜α H 1 (σ) ≤ Cα v(µξ + Aα )H 1 (σ) , with the constants Cα uniformly bounded by a constant C independent of µ. Therefore there exists a positive constant c1 independent of µ such that rot ψH 1 (B µ ) = O(exp(−c1 /µ)), and v + wH 1 (B µ ) = O(exp(−c1 /µ)). Therefore the relation holds true: Ua = u ã − (v + w) ∈ Hdiv=0 (B µ ) and − = −ν

Bµ

where the constant A does not depend on µ. (Moreover, decomposing the domain to some subdomains with diameter of order µ, in such a way that each subdomain contains a part of the boundary ∂B µ , this estimate can be proved with the factor µ2 A instead of A). Applying this estimate as well as the a priori estimate for Navier-Stokes equation from [87],[188], we obtain: U a − uH 1 (B µ ) = O(µK−1 )

and

ua − uH 1 (B µ ) = O(µK−1 ),

(4.5.35)

where c3 > 0 does not depend on µ. This estimate can be improved in a standard way (see section 2.1) as ua − uH 1 (B µ ) = O(µK+(s−1)/2 ). Remark 4.5.1. If the right hand side function is defined on each cylinder Bjµ as f = fj (

x−O x − Oj e ) + χµ (x)Γj (fˆj (x1j ), 0, ..., 0)T , ) + f0 ( µ µ

(4.5.36)

where fˆj are sufficiently smooth functions, and for all γj , j = 0, ..., n, it is defined as earlier x − Oj ), µ then this case can be easily reduced to a previous type of right hand side function by a subtraction of a partial solution f = fj (

Now we develop fˆj by the Taylor’s formula in vicinities of the nodes and obtain the set of problems with the right hand side of a form (4.5.5). It can be treated as above.

Tube structure with m bundles of tubes

Consider now the case of m different bundles of segments 1 m B1 = ∪nj=1 ej,1 , ..., Bm = ∪nj=1 ej,m .

We suppose that all common points of these bundles are end points of some segments of these bundles. Let the union of all bundles be connected. Consider the tube structure Bαµ associated with the bundle Bα . Now we do not require a base βˆjµ to be a part of ∂Bαµ in case if it corresponds to a common point of two bundles. Let µ B µ = ∪m α=1 Bα be a domain with C 2 −smooth boundary.

Let us enumerate all nodes , i.e. all ends O1 , ..., ON of the segments and all segments e1 , ..., eM . For each ej introduce local co-ordinates xej , related to one of its ends.

The asymptotic analysis of the conductivity equation for finite rod structures first appeared as an auxiliary problem in the homogenization of the lattice (”skeletal”) structures [136], see also [16], Chapter 8, as well as [44]. The elasticity equations in an L-shaped finite rod structure was first considered in [94], and then in [145, 148] the complete asymptotic expansion of the displacement field in a large class of finite rod structures was constructed. The junction of two elastic rods with contrasting rigidities was studied in [168]. An arbitrary finite rod structure was studied in [123]. The two-dimensional cell problem for the conductivity equation and for the elasticity equations set on a rectangular lattice-like structure was studied in [78]. The complete asymptotic expansion was constructed and the homogenized equation coefficients were calculated explicitly: the effective conductivity (with the first corrector) and the effective shear modulus (which is small). The various junctions of plates, rods and three dimensional bodies were studied in [38],[80]-[82],[118],[178].

Lattice Structures Here we consider the so called lattice structures, i.e. finite rod structures of Chapter 4 with a great number of elementary rods. Its definition is given at section 5.1. As in the previous chapter we first study these structures by L-convergence technique for an elliptic equation in section 5.2 and for dynamic problems in section 5.3. We start the study from the simplest (cross-like) rectangular lattice and then (in section 5.3) consider the general case. In section 5.4 the applicability of the L-convergence technique to the elasticity problem is discussed. Then we develop a refined analysis of fields, including asymptotic expansion of elasticity equation based on the expansions of Chapter 2 and Chapter 4. We apply first the analysis of Chapter 4 to obtain some limit differential equations at the axial segments of the elementary rods. Then we apply the homogenization method to find the asymptotic expansion as the period ε tends to zero. Finally, we consider the L-convergence of random lattices. We generalize the L-convergence tools in this case and formulate a result of the convergence for such structures with high probability (section 5.7).

5.1

Definition of lattice structure

The lattice-like domains simulate some widely adopted engineering constructions such as frameworks of houses, trusses of bridges, industrial installations, supports of electric power lines, spaceship grids, etc. as well as some capillary or fissured systems. The methods of solving the system of equations of the strength of materials theory (structural mechanics methods) presently used for calculating the frameworks have the drawback that the number of equations increases with number of nodes of lattice. This greatly impedes the calculation of lattices with large number of nodes, especially when investigating non-stationary and nonlinear processes. The homogenization techniques and splitting principle for the homogenized operator proposed in [134]- [136], [16] allowed essentially simplify the process of calculation of such structures.

CHAPTER 5. LATTICE STRUCTURES

Definition 5.1.1 Let β1 , ..., βJ be bounded domains in IRs−1 , (s = 2, 3) with a piecewise smooth boundary satisfying the strong cone condition, let Bj (j = 1, ..., J) be cylinders, suppose Bj = {x ∈ IRs | (x2 /µ, ..., xs /µ ∈ βj , x1 ∈ IR}, α ˜ with and Bh,j is the cylinder obtained from Bj by orthogonal transformation Π the matrix αT , α = (αil ) and by translation by h = (h1 , ..., hs )T . Let eα h be an s-dimensional vector obtained from the vector i(h, α) of the axis Ox1 with ˜ of IRs with matrix the beginning at the point O by orthogonal transformation Π T α and by translation by h = (h1 , ..., hs ). Let B be a union of all vectors eα h 2 when α belongs to a set ∆ ⊂ IRs and h to a set Hα ⊂ IRs , and these sets are independent of ε, µ. Let B be such that any two segments eα h can have only one common point which is the end point for both segments. The end points of eα h are called nodes. We assume that the system of the segments B is connected and periodic in all the xi with period 1, with periodicity cube Q = {x ∈ IRs | − 1/2 ≤ xi ≤ 1/2} αI 1 intersecting a finite number of segments from B : eα h1 , ..., ehI . To each of the αi αi ˜ αi segments ehi , (i = 1, ...I), we assign the cylinder Bhi ,ji and denote by B hi ,ji αi the part of Bhi ,ji contained between the two planes passing through the ends of ˜ αi segment eα hε and perpendicular to it (we assume that the bases belong to Bhi ,ji ). Denote Bξ,µ , the set of interior points of the periodic continuation (with the ˜ αi , i = 1, ..., I, periodicity cube (0, 1)s ) to IRs of the union of the cylinders B hi ,ji while assuming that the intersection of the set Bξ,µ and the cube Q is connected. By lattice structure Bε,µ we shall mean the set {x ∈ IRs | x/ε ∈ Bξ,µ } produced from Bξ,µ by homothetic contraction of space in 1/ε times. We will assume that the lattice structure has a piecewise smooth boundary, satisfying the cone condition. s ˜α ˜α The maximal subsets of the cylinders B h,j,ε = {x ∈ IR | x/ε ∈ Bh,j } for ˜α which any cross-section by the plane perpendicular to the generatrix of B h,j,ε is free of points of other cylinders we call sections. By S0 we denote the set of sections and let c0 εµ > d, where d is the maximal diameter of the connected subsets Bε,µ \S0 , with c0 being independent of ε and µ. By eα hε we will mean the α segment {x ∈ IRs | x/ε ∈ eα h } produced from eh by homothetic contraction of space in 1/ε times. ˜ α,+ (B ˜ α,++ ) be a part of B ˜ α , contained between the planes spaced Let B h,j,ε h,j,ε h,j,ε + ˜ α . Let Bεµ by c0 εµ (by (c0 + 1)εµ) from the bases of B be a union of all h,j,ε α,+ α,++ ++ ˜ ˜ ¯ ++ B and let B be a union of all B . The domain B εµ \Bεµ is called εµ h,j,ε h,j,ε the nodal domain.

5.2.1

L-convergence for the simplest lattice

We start from the example of the simplest model of lattice-structures: twodimensional rectangular lattice. We prove all necessary auxiliary results for this simplest lattice (even if these results are some particular cases of the results of previous chapters); so the first section can be read absolutely independently of others. We announce here below some generalizations, proved later. Definition 5.2.1 The union 2 Bε,µ = ∪+∞ k=−∞ ( {(x1 , x2 ) ∈ IR | | x2 − kε | < εµ/2 }

∪ {(x1 , x2 ) ∈ IR2 | | x1 − kε | < εµ/2 } ) is called the two-dimensional rectangular lattice. Thus the rectangular lattice is a union of thin strips of the width εµ stretched in each coordinate direction and forming the ε− periodic system in each dimension. We also denote 2 j = ∪+∞ Bε,µ k=−∞ {(x1 , x2 ) ∈ IR | | x3−j − kε | < εµ/2 }

the unions of horizontal (j = 1) and vertical (j = 2) strips, so

Let G be a domain with the boundary ∂G ∈ C ∞ which is independent of ε and µ. In the domain Bε,µ ∩ G we consider the equation −div ( A grad uε,µ ) = f (x) ,

(5.2.1)

with the boundary conditions ( A grad uε,µ , n ) = 0, f or x ∈ ∂Bε,µ ∩ G,

here x = (x1 , x2 ), A = (aij ) is a constant (2 × 2)−matrix independent of ε and µ , A = AT > 0 , i.e. aij = aji and A is positive, f ∈ C 1 (G). Problems (5.2.1)-(5.2.3) simulate a steady state heat field in the lattice structure Bε,µ ∩ G under the conditions of thermal insulation on the boundary of G with A being the heat conductivity tensor for the material of which the framework is made (”cut out”). For aij = δij D (5.2.1)-(5.2.3) may be interpreted also as a problem of diffusion of a substance in a fissured rock filled with water or oil, with D being the diffusion coefficient of the substance in the fluid. In this case, the framework Bε,µ models a rectangular system of cracks εµ wide, filled with water. This model is very approximate since the system of cracks in a rock has a less regular structure . The model of a random framework (section 5.9) is more suitable for its description. Numerical solution of problems (5.2.1)-(5.2.3), with ε 0, S ≥ 0) are constants A = (aij ) is a constant (2×2)−matrix independent of ε and µ , A = AT > 0 ,i.e. aij = aji and A is positive, ¯ × R+ ), f (x, 0) = ∂f |t=0 = 0. f ∈ C ∞ (G ∂t As above ∂G is smooth enough: ∂G ∈ C 3 . Definition 5.3.1 Let uε,µ (x, t) be a sequence of functions from L2 ((Bε,µ ∩ G) × [0, T ]) , and u0 (x) ∈ L2 (G × [0, T ]). One says that uε,µ Lt −converges to u0 (x, t) at (Bε,µ ∩ G) × [0, T ] if and only if uε,µ |t=0 = 0,

uε,µ − u0 L2 ((Bε,µ ∩G)×[0,T ]) → 0, mes(Bε,µ ∩ G)

(ε, µ → 0).

√ uε,µ − u0 L2 ((Bε,µ ∩G)×[0,T ]) √ = O( ε + µ), mes(Bε,µ ∩ G)

Introduce FLt-convergence. Definition 5.3.2 Let uε,µ (x, t) be a sequence of functions from H01 (Bε,µ ∩G) for almost all t ∈ [0, T ], such that

∂uε,µ ∂ 2 uε,µ |t=t0 ∈ L2 (Bε,µ ∩ G) |t=t0 , ∂t ∂t2

for almost all t0 ∈ [0, T ]. One says that uε,µ FLt - converges to zero if and only if uε,µ F Lt((Bε,µ ∩G)×[0,T ]) → 0,

(ε, µ → 0).

The theorems on FLt-convergence of the difference uε,µ − uε,µ to zero could be formulated and proved as in [16] (see the next subsection).

We assume that R > 0. We can consider a ”parabolic” case when R = 0 and S > 0; if so, the second initial condition (5.3.12) should be cancelled. By formally taking R = S = 0, we can consider the steady state problem. Then both conditions (5.3.12) are cancelled. We suppose that problem (5.3.9)-(5.3.12) has the solution, such that for each n−dimensional vector-valued function ϕ(x, t) which belongs to the space H 1 (Bε,µ ∩ G) for each fixed value of t and equal to zero on the boundary ∂G, the integral

We shall describe the procedure of constructing the homogenized operator. It is related to resolving of the cell problem by L-convergence method of section 4.1.2. To each segment e ⊂ B , we assign a collection of n−dimensional vectors (assuming their existence) X0 (y, x, t), ..., Xs (y, x, t) ∈ C 2 , which satisfies the following four conditions: 1) Ai (X1 (y, x, t), ..., Xs (y, x, t), x, t) νij = 0, where j = 1, ..., s − 1, and the vectors ν 1 = (ν11 , ..., νs1 ) , ... , ν s−1 = (ν1s−1 , ..., νss−1 )

for each symmetric constant matrix (ηlj )1≤l,j≤s . In this case the estimation of Lemma 5.2.2 is not valid because of the dependence of the constant of Korn’s inequality of µ. Indeed the following lemma takes place: Lemma 5.4.1 (proved in [145]).Let

Then for any lattice Bε,µ and domain G, independent of ε and µ with piecewise-smooth boundary there exists such vector-valued function vε,µ ∈ H 1 (Bε,µ ∩ G) that vε,µ |Bε,µ ∩∂G = 0, ∇vε,µ 2L2 (Bε,µ ∩G) ≥ c1 µs−1 εs−2 , EBε,µ ∩G (vε,µ ) ≤ c2 µs εs−2 , i.e. EBε,µ ∩G (vε,µ ) ≤ c3 µ∇vε,µ 2L2 (Bε,µ ∩G) , where constants c1 , c2 , c3 do not depend on ε and µ. The proof is based on the analogous proposition for a bar π = (−1, 1) × βµ , where βµ = {(x′ /µ ∈ β}, β is (s − 1)−dimensional bounded domain with a piecewise-smooth boundary (satisfying the cone condition; in the twodimensional case β is an interval), i.e. there exist such constants c1 , c2 , c3 > 0,

270


independent of µ, and the s-dimensional vector-valued function wµ (x), such that wµ ∈ H 1 (π) and wµ |x1 =±1 = 0, wµ 2L2 (π) ≥ c1 µs−1 ,

∇wµ 2L2 (π) ≥ c2 µs−1 ,

Eπ (wµ ) ≤ c3 µs .

This example was constructed in subsection 4.4.1. By the linear application we could build such function wµ , which satisfies to all conditions of the proposition and vanishes in the vicinity of the planes {x1 = ±1}. If now for each bar of the lattice structure Bε,µ except of those that cross the boundary of the domain G we shall construct the corresponding function (with the replacement of µ by the product εµ and of the length 2 of the bar by ε) we obtain the proof of this lemma. Thus L-convergence for the elasticity equations is not the consequence of the F L−convergence. Nevertheless the Korn inequality for the lattice structures with the constant estimated by a power µ−K with some K was proved in [145] and then this constant was calculated more precisely in [129], [43] and then in [68]. The Korn inequality for lattices was used with boundary layer and homogenization methods for the construction of the asymptotic expansion of the solution of the elasticity system of equations, set in a lattice-like domain ( [148]). Here above we have introduced the L-convergence and the FL-convergence for the lattice-like domains and we have applied it to the homogenization of linear and non-linear problems in these domains. The techniques of proof of L-convergence is quite different of the techniques of extension of the solution of the problems for perforated domain inside the perforations [45]. More detailed information about the solution could be obtained from the asymptotic expansion of the solution, built in [136], [148]. Using the terminology of Ph.Ciarlet [38], one can say that lattice-like domains are multi-structures with a great number of junctions. Particularly the case of junction of two elastic rods was considered in [94], [95]. The extension techniques was developed for lattice-like structures in [46],[44], where the convergence results were obtained for the elasticity system of equations, set in these structures. The influence of the order of the passage to limit by small parameters was studied. The boundary value problems considered above for lattice-like domains were of Neumann’s type on ∂Bε,µ . The Dirichlet’s problems for lattice-like domains are developed in [90] (periodic case) and [91] (non-periodic case).

So, the average of the main term is a solution to the homogenized equation with the operator obtained by principle of splitting ( [134],[16]) with an additional term in the right hand side. The similar effect was obtained recently in [67] for a ”regularized” elasticity equation, containing the term proportional to the displacement. The important difference of the elasticity equation in comparison to the conductivity equation is that there is a corrector in (5.6.12) of order ( µε )2 . It can be great or of order of 1. This corrector can be easily explained ”mechanically”: its presence is due to the orthogonal (with respect to every segment e) components of the force f (x).

where f ∈ C ∞ is a T −periodic function, T is a multiple of ε and as above s = 2 or s = 3. We seek the solution u(x) in the class of T −periodic functions of HT1 −per (Bµ,ε ). Here HT1 −per (Bµ,ε ) stands for the completion of the set of T −periodic differentiable functions defined at Bµ,ε with respect to the H 1 (Bµ,ε ∩ (0, T )s )−norm.

Applying now the Poincar´ é inequality of Theorem 5.7.1, we obtain the estimate of Theorem 5.7.2. Let us describe the asymptotic procedure of construction of solution to problem (5.7.1)-(5.7.2). At the first step for every segment e an asymptotic solution is sought in the form similar to that of section 4.3 and at the second step the boundary layer correctors are constructed in the same way as in section 4.3. Functions ve set on the net satisfy the equations and the junction conditions analogous to that of section 5.5, therefore its asymptotic solution is sought in the form of series (∞) similar to uε of section 5.5 (i.e. in the form of (5.7.7)). Of course this form is taken into account in the Taylor expansion procedure for the ansatz in the neighborhoods of the nodes (5.7.15). For the macroscopic unknown function V of the expansion (5.7.7) we obtain the homogenized equation similar to that of section 5.5. (according to the principle of splitting of the homogenized operator [ 134], [16]). As usual, function V is expanded in the regular series (see (5.7.36)) and we obtain finally the recurrent chain of problems for the terms of this series. The justification is a standard procedure of the truncation of the expansion, its substitution into the equation and the boundary conditions and the estimation of the discrepancy. Then we apply the a priori estimate and get the estimate for the difference of the exact solution and the truncated expansion. 1. So, first , we construct the asymptotic corresponding to a segment e = enh in B . We change to new variables x ˜ = α(x − εh). In these new variables, the ˜ α } becomes the rod. cylinder {x/ε ∈ B hj we set

Uεµ = {˜ x1 ∈ IRs | 0 < x ˜ < lε, x ˜′ /εµ ∈ βj }; Γεµ = {˜ x1 ∈ IRs | 0 < x ˜ < lε, x ˜′ /εµ ∈ ∂β βj }.

In what follows β = βj . We write f˜(˜ x) = f (α∗ x ˜+εh) and u ˜(˜ x) = u(α∗ x ˜+εh) .

˜ α becomes Then problem (5.7.1), (5.7.2) on B hj ∆u ˜ = f˜(˜ x), x ˜ ∈ Uεµ ,

We make the substitution ξ ′ = (ξ˜2 , . . . , ξ˜s ), ξ˜i = x ˜i /(εµ) and expand f˜ in an asymptotic series with respect to εµξ˜i , of the form f˜ ∼

We represent Fjr in the form F¯jr + F˜jr , where F˜jr β = 0 and F¯jr = F Fjr β . Using superposition , we seek the solution to problem (5.7.3) , (5.7.4) in the form : u ˜∼

We set z = (x − x0 )/(εµ) and denote by Πx0 ,z,0 the image of Πx0 . Let ˜ α ˜ Bhj be a cylinder whose intersection with Πx0 is nonempty. We extend it to a semi-infinite cylinder whose basis has no common points with Πx0 . We denote α by Bhj∞ this extended cylinder, and by Πx0 ∞ the union of all such cylinders α Bhj∞ and Πx0 . Moreover, we denote by Πx0 ,z,∞ the image of Πx0 ,∞ under the transformation z = (x − x0 )/(εµ).

For every α segment e(x0 ) and its corresponding half-bounded cylinder Bhj∞ , denote the limit constant Ce . From the representation (5.7.16) it follows that if we change the value of ˜ e q |x˜ (x )/ε by δ N ˜ e q |x˜ (x )/ε then the value of Ce , also changes by N i1 ...il 1 0 i1 ...il 1 0

Then we redefine the e q e q ˜ ˜ values N | and M ˜1 (x0 )/ε ˜1 (x0 )/ε , so that their corresponding i1 ...il , j1 ...js |x i1 ...il x solutions of the problems in Πx0 ,z,∞ stabilize to one and the same constant for all segments e(x0 ) with the same end-point x0 .

Then applying the Newton-Leibnitz formula for any connected path Pξ0 ,ξ¯ of segments in B ∩ Q, ¯ with the initial point in ξ 0 and the final point in ξ, dΨ ¯ dl = Ψ(ξ) Pξ0 ,ξ¯ dl

It is equal to zero for ξ = 0, therefore s i1 =1 i1 i1 i1 =1 ξi1 ηi1 = 0. Taking now for any k ∈ {1, ..., s}, ξ = (δ1k , ..., δsk ), we prove that ηk = 0.

where fp1 p2 (x) are defined in terms of the Vq1 q2 with indices (q1 , q2 ) < (p1 , p2 ) that is, qi ≤ pi , i = 1, 2 and q1 = p1 or q2 = p2 , and f00 = f (x); thus, the above equation coincides with the homogenized one obtained in section 5.1 by means of principle of splitting of the homogenized operator. It can be proved by induction that the fp1 p2 (x) are T −periodic in x and that fp1 p2 (x)dx = 0; (0,T )s

consequently, the following assertion holds Lemma 5.7.3. The sequence of problems (5.7.37) is recursively solvable in class of T −periodic functions Vq1 q2 with zero averages, that is, such that V (x)dx = 0. (0,T )s p1 p2 We denote by u(J) the truncated (partial) sum of the asymptotic series (5.7.5)-(5.7.7), (5.7.17), (5.7.36), obtained by neglecting the terms of order O(εJ + µJ ) (in the H 1 (BT )−norm, BT = Bµε ∩ (0, T )s ). Choosing J sufficiently large, we can show for any K that equation (5.7.1) and condition (5.7.2) are satisfied with remainders of order O(εK + ε−1 µK ) (in the L2 (BT )−norm). Hence , using the a priori estimate for problem (5.7.1),(5.7.2) given by Theorem 5.7.2, we obtain the following assertion. Theorem 5.7.3.If there are numbers α1 and α2 such that ε = O(µα1 ) and µ = O(εα2 ) as ε, µ → 0, then u − u ˜(J) H 1 (BT ) = O(εJ + µJ ), where u ˜(J) = u(J) − < u(J) >T , u is the solution of problem (5.7.1),(5.7.2), and < u(J) >T = 0, < . >T = .dx. BT

Thus,(5.7.5)-(5.7.7), (5.7.17), (5.7.36) is an asymptotic approximation of the solution of problem (5.7.1),(5.7.2). Remark 5.7.1 From the structure of the formal asymptotic solution (5.7.5)(5.7.7), (5.7.17), (5.7.36) it follows that, as ε, µ → 0, the solution converges in the norm .H 1 (BT ) / mesBT

to a function V00 independent of ε and µ. This function is a T −periodic solution to the homogenized problem ˆ V00 = f (x). LV

High order homogenization of elastic lattices

(5.8.2)

where

s ∂u ∂u ni , = Aij ∂x ∂ν j i,j=1

and Aij are constant s × s matrices, the elements akl ij of the Aij satisfy the relations akl ij = (δij δkl + δil δjk )M + λδik δjl , Here M and λ are the Lame´ coefficients, (n1 , . . . , ns ) is the normal to ∂Bµ,ε , f ∈ C ∞ is a T −periodic s−dimensional vector-valued function, T is a multiple of ε. As above s = 2 or s = 3. We seek the solution u(x) in the class of T −periodic s−dimensional vector-valued functions of HT1 −per (Bµ,ε ). Here HT1 −per (Bµ,ε ) stands for the completion of the set of T −periodic differentiable functions defined at Bµ,ε with respect to the H 1 (Bµ,ε ∩ (0, T )s )−norm. Below we construct the asymptotic expansion of the solution to problem (5.8.1)-(5.8.2) as µ, ε → 0 under some assumptions P F1 and P F2 of geometrical rigidity of the lattice structure. These assumptions will be formulated below for the limit problem. We assume as well that the following integrals of the right hand-side vanish: f (x)dx = 0, f (x)dx = 0. (0,T )s

Bµ,ε ∩(0,T )s

Theorem 5.8.1. There exist a unique solution to problem (5.8.1),(5.8.2) such that u(x)dx = 0. Bµ,ε ∩(0,T )s

and the estimate holds: there exist constants C and q independent of µ and ε such that −q u2H 1 f 2L2 (Bµ,ε ∩(0,T )s ) . (Bµ,ε ∩(0,T )s ) ≤ Cµ T −per

This means that any solution of problem (5.8.1),(5.8.2) satisfies the estimate ∇u2L2 (Bµ,ε ∩(0,T )s ) ≤ Cµ−q f 2L2 (Bµ,ε ∩(0,T )s ) . The result on existence and uniqueness of solution to a mixed boundary value problem of elasticity is well known (see for example [55]). Let us prove the a priori estimate. As it was shown in section 5.4, the Korn inequality constant for structures depends on the small parameter. Composing the example of Lemma 5.4.1 for every rod, we obtain an ε−periodic function

that has the Korn inequality constant of order µ−1 . On the other hand the theorem of Appendix shows that this Korn inequality constant is not worse é inequality constant is also not worse than µ−q (q ∈ IR). Moreover, the Poincar´ than some power of µ. So, finally we obtain the estimate of Theorem 5.4.1. The asymptotic of the solution to problem (5.8.1), (5.8.2) are constructed in several steps. These steps are similar to the procedure of the previous section. The new elements are: the presence in the asymptotic expansion of the term of order ( µε )2 (see section 5.6) and the dependency of the Korn inequality constant on µ−q (this dicrepancy is not dangerous for the justification of the truncated asymptotic expansion because we apply the same improving of the accuracy procedure as in section 4.4).

1. First , we construct the asymptotic corresponding to a segment e = enh in B . We change to new variables x ˜ = α(x − εh). In these new variables, the ˜ α } becomes the rod. cylinder {x/ε ∈ B hj ˜ < lε, x ˜′ /εµ ∈ βj }; Uεµ = {˜ x1 ∈ IRs | 0 < x we set Γεµ = {˜ ˜ < lε, x ˜′ /εµ ∈ ∂β x1 ∈ IRs | 0 < x βj }. In what follows β = βj . We write f˜(˜ x) = αf (α∗ x ˜ + εh) and u ˜(˜ x) = ∗ αu(α x ˜ + εh) . ˜ α becomes Then problem (5.8.1), (5.8.2) on B hj Pu ˜=−

We suppose also for simplicity of presentation that for any node there are three non-coplanar (if s = 3), respectively two non-collinear (if s = 2), segments e having this node as an end-point. This condition will be called the noncoplanarity condition. Lemma 5.8.3 If s = 3 and Condition P F2 holds, then the problem for ˜ e q (2) + N ˜ e q (4) (consisting of the last three equations (5.8.16), the last N i1 ...il i1 ...il three matching conditions (5.8.24), and matching conditions (5.8.28)) is also solvable.

The solvability of the problems in Lemmas 5.8.2 and 5.8.3 is proved by means of the Riesz representation theorem for a bounded linear functional on a Hilbert space. An analysis of the right-hand sides of problems (5.8.17),(5.8.24),(5.8.28) ˜ e 0 (2) (N ˜ e 0 (4) ) is homogeneous, and that N ˜ e 0 (2) = shows that the problem for N i1

It can be proved by induction that the fp1 p2 (x) are T −periodic in x and that (0,T )s fp1 p2 (x)dx = 0; consequently, the following assertion holds Lemma 5.8.4 The sequence of problems (5.8.37) is recursively solvable in class of T −periodic functions Vq1 q2 with zero averages, that is, such that V p 1 p2 (x)dx = 0. (0,T )s We denote by u(J) the truncated (partial) sum of the asymptotic series (5.8.7)-(5.8.9), (5.8.20), (5.8.36), obtained by neglecting the terms of order O(µ−2 εJ + µJ ) (in the H 1 (BT )−norm, BT = Bµε ∩ (0, T )s ). Choosing J sufficiently large, we can show for any K that equation (5.8.1) and condition (5.8.2) are satisfied with remainders of order O(µ−2 εK +ε−1 µK ) (in the L2 (BT )−norm. Hence , using the a priori estimate for problem (5.8.1),(5.8.2) given by Theorem 5.8.1, we obtain the following assertion. Theorem 5.8.2 If there are numbers α1 and α2 such that ε = O(µα1 ) and µ = O(εα2 ) as ε, µ → 0, then u − u ˜(J) H 1 (BT ) = O(µ−2 εJ + µJ ), where u ˜(J) = u(J) − < u(J) >T , u is the solution of problem (5.8.1),(5.8.2), and < u(J) >T = 0, < . >T = .dx. BT

Thus, (5.8.7)-(5.8.9), (5.8.20), (5.8.36) is a formal asymptotic solution of problem (5.8.1),(5.8.2). Remark 5.8.1 From the structure of the formal asymptotic solution (5.8.7)(5.8.9), (5.8.20), (5.8.36) it follows that, as ε, µ → 0, the solution does not always converge in the norm .H 1 (BT ) / mesBT

to a function V00 independent of ε and µ; this convergence happens only if ε/µ → 0. For ε/µ = const or ε/µ → +∞ this kind of convergence, generally speaking, does not occur. However, for any relationship between ε and µ the function V00 satisfies a homogenized equation of the form (5.8.37). The main term of the asymptotic expansion coincides with that of section 5.6 where the functions Ni1 ...il have to be extended to Bεµ as constants in every hyperplane

The Poisson’s equation with random coefficients set in a lattice type domain of a small measure is considered. Such domains simulate the system of fissures and depend on two small parameters: the ratio of the period of the system to the characteristic size of the domain and the ratio of the width of a fissure to the period of the system. The asymptotic analysis is developed.

and from Lemma 5.2.4 we obtain the estimate ϕ − ϕk1 k2 L2 (Bε,µ ∩Qk1 k2 ) ≤ Cε∇ϕL2 (Bε,µ ∩Qk1 k2 ) , where C does not depend on ε, µ. Therefore 2 j=1

we get the final estimate P{

So the theorem is proved. The same consideration is developed for more general types of lattice structures, modelling the systems of fissures oriented in a lot of directions, capillary systems with varying width etc. [135]. The Dirichlet’s problem for Poisson’s equation set in non-periodic lattice structure is considered in [92].

The lattice-like structures (or skeletal structures) were introduced in [134], where the asymptotic analysis was developed and the principle of splitting the homogenized operator was formulated and justified. The complete asymptotic expansion for a conductivity problem was obtained in [136]. Random structures were studied in [135],[153]. Later lattice-like structures were studied by D.Cioranescu and J. Saint Jean Paulin [46-48]. They considered the result of the passage to limit as the small parameters asymptotic analysis of the lattice-like structures tend to zero in different orders. The L-convergence was introduced in [16] and [155]. The complete asymptotic expansion of a solution to the elasticity equations set in a lattice-like structure was constructed in [145],[148] where the essentially different behavior of the solution was detected in case when the ratio µ/ε is small, finite or great. This result confirms the non-commutativity of the consecutive passages to limit in µ and ε for the elasticity equation described in [44] and [62]; D.Cioranescu and J. Saint Jean Paulin study there the different orders of passage to the limit in so called gridworks , tall structures and honeycomb structures depending on three small parameters µ, ε and e (see Figures 5.9.1 and 5.9.2).

Figure 5.9.2. A tall structure and a honeycomb structure. Nowadays the researches still keep their interest to the lattice-like structures (see, for example, [169] where the non-linear elasticity is considered and justified) and also [66], [67] where the ”regularized” (by some artificial potential) elasticity equation in the rectangular lattice is studied by means of the two-scale convergence.

316


Let us discuss now some models close to the lattice-like structures. The equations on a net were considered in [104]; the asymptotic passage in the difference operators (close to the modelling of lattices) was considered in [126]. Recently the network approximation was studied by L.Berlyand and A.G.Kolpakov in [26] for a high contrast dispersed composite with a small inter-particle distance. The error estimate was then proved in terms of the Voronoy metric in [27]. The fractal-like hierarchical lattice constructions were considered in [79]. The structural mechanics study of the lattice structures can be found in [171]. The lattice-like and the honeycomb structures in a weakly conductive matrix were considered in [17]. The typical result for these structures is as follows. Consider the cell problem [16] for a composite material with square (or cubic in three-dimensional case) periodic inclusions depending on two small parameters : the conductivity of inclusions δ and the thickness of the partition between the inclusions µ. In this case we obtain the explicit formula for the using the principle of splitting of main term of the coefficient of conductivity K = δ + µ(s − 1), where s is the dimension of the homogenized operator [16] : K the space (2 or 3). Let us prove the estimate of the error of this formula. The cases of a finite and of a large conductivity of inclusions are also considered. Consider the following cell problem div(K(x)grad(N N1 + x1 )) = 0, x ∈ IRs for the 1-periodic function N1 of the variables x = (x1 , . . . , xs ) with the piecewiseconstant 1-periodic coefficient K, taking the values : δ inside the cube {|xi − 1/2| < 1/2 − µ/2, i = 1, . . . , s}, and 1 on the other part of the unit cube [0, 1]s . The values of K(x) in each point x ∈ IRs are obtained by the periodic extension. The variational formulation of the cell problem has a form : 1 (K(x)∇(N N1 + x1 ), ∇ϕ) = 0, ∀ϕ ∈ Hper , 1 where . is the integral over cube Q = [−1/2, 1/2]s , Hper is the completion of the space of smooth 1-periodic functions with respect to norm H 1 (Q), N1 is 1 sought in class Hper . The effective conductivity is defined as follows:

= K(x)∂(N K N1 + x1 )/∂x1 .

= δ + (s − 1)µ + O(µ(δ + µ)) if µ → 0, δ → 0, Theorem 4.10.1 K = δ + O(µ) if µ → 0, δ = const, = δ + O(δ 2 µ) if µ → 0, δ → +∞, δµ → 0, = δ/(1 + δµ) + O(1) if µ → 0, δ → +∞, δµ = const, = 1/µ + O((δµ2 )−1 + 1) if µ → 0, δ → +∞, δµ → +∞. Proof. 1/2 Denote i the integral −1/2 dxi . In [16] Chapter 4, section 4.2 (and earlier in the non-published paper by N. S. Bakhvalov) the estimate has been obtained : −1 −1 K −1 −1 1 2 3 ≤ K ≤ K2 3 1 .

For s = 3 we calculate −1 K −1 −1 (1 − µ) + µ)−1 (1 − µ) + µ)(1 − µ) + µ, 1 2 3 = ((δ

and

−1 −1 K2 −1 (1 − µ) + µ)−1 . 3 1 = (((δ(1 − µ) + µ)(1 − µ) + µ)

We see that the right side and left side of this bilateral estimate have the same asymptotic leading term which is declared in the theorem. Therefore K has also the same asymptotic leading term. The estimate in the two-dimensional case is proved in a same way. The two-scale convergence approach on some domains of degenerating measure was applied to the ”networks”, i.e. the composite materials with some degenerating concentration of a very rigid component [33].

(The sketch of this prove will be given further in Remark 5.A2.7). Let R be the space of rigid displacements Lemma 5.A2.1 Let G be a domain such that there exists a constant CK (depending on G) such that for any u ∈ (H 1 (G))s , there exists a rigid displacement η ∈ R such that ∇(u − η)2L2 (G) ≤ CK EG (u) (i.e. the Korn inequality holds with a constant CK ).

Let G1(a,b) and G2(a,b) be the same mappings of G1 and G2 as in Lemma 5.A2.1. Then for any (a1 , a2 , b1 , b2 ) such that 0 < a1 ≤ a2 , 0 < b1 ≤ b2 , there exists a constant Cz > 0 depending only on a1 , a2 , b1 , b2 (the same that in Lemma 5.A2.1) such that ∀a ∈ [a, a2 ], b ∈ [b1 , b2 ], ∀u ∈ (H 1 (G1(a,b) ))s , there exists an extension PE (a,b) u over G2(a,b) such that PE (a,b) u) ≤ Cz CE EG1(a,b) (u). EG2(a,b) (P Proof. Indeed making the same change as in Lemma 5.A2.1, we consider PE u ˆ, an extension of u from G1 over G2 , and then we make the inverse change and obtain the necessary extension PE (a,b) and EG2(a,b) (P PE (a,b) u) ≤ abs−1 (max(a, b))4 EG2 (P PE u ) ≤ s−1 u) ≤ (max(a, b))4 CE (max a1 , 1b )4 EG1 (a,b) ab (max(a, b))4 CE EG1 (

Chapter 6

The Multi-Scale Domain Decomposition The method of asymptotic partial decomposition of domain (MAPDD) introduced in [154] is applied here below to partial differential equations, set in rod structures, i.e. in some connected unions of thin cylinders, described in Chapter 4. This method is based on the information about the structure of the asymptotic solution in different parts of such complicated domain. The principal idea of the method is to extract the subdomain of singular behavior of the solution and to reduce dimension of the problem in the subdomain of regular behavior of the solution. The special interface conditions are set on the common boundary of these partially decomposed subdomains. This approach can be easily implemented in the frame of one of modifications of finite element method. Thus this method makes a dimensional (or scale) zoom of some parts of the domain, where the solution has a singular behavior. Rod structures (as it was defined in Chapter 4) are finite connected unions of thin cylinders. The direct numerical solution of partial derivative equations in such domains is very expensive because a complicated geometry demands a large number of nodes in the grid. Another decision is to reduce the dimension and pass to locally one-dimensional model: i.e. each rod is one-dimensional with some junction conditions in the ends. This approach was represented in by sections 4.2, 4.3 but it ignores the boundary layers in neighborhoods of the ends of the rods, while it is well known that these boundary layers are sometimes very important from the point of view of calculation of gradients of solutions: the failure of the rod structure often begins from these neighborhoods because of great concentration of stresses. These stresses can be calculated by constructing of the asymptotic expansion of the solution as in sections 4.7, 4.8, but it is not too easy. Therefore in the present chapter we propose a hybrid method which uses a combined 3D-1D models: it is three-dimensional in the boundary layer domain and it is one-dimensional outside of the boundary layer domain. We cut the

CHAPTER 6. THE MULTI-SCALE DOMAIN DECOMPOSITION

rods at some distance from the ends of the rods, we keep the dimension three in the neighborhood of the ends and we reduce dimension on the truncated (main) part of rods. Of course the most important question is: what are the interface conditions between 3D and 1D parts? Here below we formulate two approaches of construction of such hybrid models and justify the closeness of the partially decomposed model and initial model. The main principles of construction of such conditions are as follows: i) the asymptotic expansion of the exact solution of the initial problem should satisfy these interface conditions with great accuracy; ii) the hybrid 3D-1D problem with the interface conditions (i.e. partially decomposed problem) should be well posed, i.e. it should have the unique solution and it should be stable with respect to small perturbations in the right hand side. For example, consider the structure at Figure 6.0.1. It is a ”thin domain”, where the partial derivative equations are set with some boundary conditions. The structural mechanics approach reduces it to a completely one-dimensional object (Figure 6.0.2) with some ordinary differential equations along the segments and some junction conditions in the nodes. Although this passage can be justified asymptotically as the small parameter µ tends to zero, the twodimensional information in the neighborhoods of junctions will be completely lost. This information is nevertheless important in the fracture analysis because fractures often start from these domains where the stresses are locally concentrated. From this point of view the method of asymptotic partial decomposition of domain preferable because it passes to a one-dimensional model in the main part of the domain and it keeps the information in some small neighborhoods of the diameter of order εln(ε). Some special interface conditions are set on the contact surfaces between one-dimensional and two-dimensional parts. So, this method can be interpreted as a multi-scale model with the zoom in the neighborhoods of the junctions (Figure 6.0.3). In section 6.1 the differential version of the method of partial asymptotic domain decomposition (MAPDD) is described on some model examples; the general description is given. The variational version is given in section 6.2. The general scheme is discussed; the main theorem about the estimate of the difference between the exact solution and the solution to the partially decomposed problem is proved. The main theorem is then applied to the modelling of thin structures (the finite rod structures). These structures simulate, in particular, the mechanical behavior of the human or animal blood circulatory system [172]. The dimension reduction in such a modelling is a natural approach, although the full-dimensional models have to be kept in the neighborhoods of the bifurcations or junctions. So the MAPDD gives the asymptotically exact answer what should be the correct interface conditions. The flows in such structures are discussed in section 6.3. Other applications (such as an extrusion process) are as well discussed in section 6.3. In section 6.4 the MAPDD is applied to the homogenization problems. The classical homogenization problem [12],[22],[49],[177] of the Dirichlet problem

339 x div(A( )graduε ) = f (x), x ∈ G, uε |∂G = 0, ε is considered; here A(ξ) is an s×s positive definite symmetric matrix 1−periodic in ξ, and ε is a small parameter. Although the asymptotic behavior of the asymptotic solution ”inside” (i.e. at some distance from the boundary) is well studied, the boundary layers are still remain an open problem in the homogenization. And these boundary layers are of great importance for the flux description, for the fracture analysis etc. So, it would be natural to homogenize the problem inside of G at some distance from the boundary keeping the initial formulation in some thin boundary strip. The implementation of this idea arises the question about the asymptotically correct interface conditions between the homogenized and non-homogenized subdomains. We study this question in a model situation when G is a thick layer in IRs , and the asymptotic expansion of the solution is known (it was constructed in [133],[16]). The MAPDD is implemented here below as the variational formulation of the initial problem on the subspace of functions having the form of the asymptotic approximation of order K at some distance from the boundary. Some small corrections transform the MAPDD into the partial homogenization method, prescribing some special interface conditions coupling the homogenized and the non-homogenized parts. Theorem 6.4.1 justifies the partial homogenization by estimating the difference between the asymptotic solution and the solution of the partially homogenized problem.

Below we shall analyze these questions for hybrid models of conductivity and elasticity equations stated in rod structures. We consider below two versions of the method of asymptotic partial decomposition of domain. The first version is ”differential”, i.e. we work with the differential formulation of the initial problem , we obtain the 1D differential equation in the reduced part of the rod structure and we add the differential interface conditions on the boundary between 3D and 1D parts (as in [26]). Of course we can pass to a variational formulation of the partially decomposed problem but it is generated by a differential one. The second version is a direct variational approach, when the 3D integral identity for the original problem is restated for a special subspace of functions having a form of the ansatz of the asymptotic solution in the regular thin part of the rod structure. This approach is similar to I.Babuska’s idea of the projection with the dimensional reduction, but the partial asymptotic decomposition keeps the initial functional set in the boundary layer domain In this chapter we always use the notation ε for a small parameter, so sometimes it stands for the parameter denoted µ in chapters 1-4.

6.1.1

General description of the differential version

Consider the abstract problem Λ ε u ε = Fε , which depends on a small parameter ε. Here Λε is a linear operator, Fε is a known right hand side and uε is the unknown solution. Let uε , Fε be the functions of the vector valued variable x = (x1 , ..., xs ) varying in the domain Gε . Suppose that the asymptotic behavior of the solution is essentially different in some parts of the domain Gε , i.e. it is a ”regular asymptotic expansion” in a subdomain Gε1 of the domain Gε and it is ”asymptotically singular function” in the subdomain Gε \Gε1 . For example it depends only on the variable x1 in Gε , and in Gε \Gε1 it has the form of the boundary layer (as it will be in subsection 1.1.2), fig.6.1.1. Usually the part Gε \Gε1 is much smaller than the part Gε1 . Then it is natural to decompose the initial problem to a simplified equation in the part Gε1 of Gε (for example, by dimensional reduction as it will be shown in section 1.2) and to the original equation stated in the ”small” reduced part Gε \Gε1 . Of course we should add the conditions on the interface of two parts Gε1 and Gε \Gε1 . The interface conditions should be ”correct”, i.e. the asymptotic solution has to satisfy these conditions, and the whole problem containing the simplified equation set in Gε1 , the original equation posed in the ”small” subdomain Gε \Gε1 and the interface conditions

has to be well posed. Let us develop now this idea. Let uε be the solution of some problem depending on a small parameter ε stated in the domain Gε ⊂ IRs ; let the structure of the asymptotic expansion of the solution is known in the ”regular” subdomain Gε1 of the domain Gε , i.e. uε ∼

Suppose that the function uε is expanded asymptotically in the subdomain Gε \Gε1 as follows : ∞

One can build some algorithms based on this idea if the structure of the asymptotic expansions is known . We should only state such a problem (6.1.4) a) which is uniquely solvable and stable and b) for which the partial sums of the asymptotic expansions v (K) and U (K) are the solutions.

and therefore (6.1.11) holds true up to O(εJ ). Below we take J = K. The information about the structure of asymptotic solution (6.1.7),(6.1.8), (6.1.10) and the relation (6.1.11), true for this asymptotic solution, gives us the conjecture of construction of partially decomposed problem: we keep 3D problem in the neighborhood of end x1 = 0 ε ε ∆U = f (x1 ), x ∈ (0, δ) × (− , ), 2 2 ∂U = 0, x ∈ γ3 ∩ {x1 ≤ δ} ∂n U = 0, x ∈ γ2 ,

The variational formulation of the problem (6.1.12) is as follows. Let H 1 ((0, δ)×(− 2ε , 2ε ), (δ, 1)) be the space of pairs of functions (R(x1 , x2 ), ρ(x1 ))such that

Remark 6.1.1 Problem (6.1.12) is ”better” than (6.1.5), (6.1.6) because of the reducing of the two dimensional part of the problem from Gε to G1ε . The part Gε \G1ε is replaced by a one-dimensional segment. The problem set in G1ε is responsible for the boundary layer and it is coupled with the one-dimensional regular problem stated in (δ, 1). It contains complete information on the asymptotic expansion of the solution of the problem (6.1.5), (6.1.6). Now this coupled 2D - 1D problem (6.1.12) could be solved numerically by the finite element method. To this end we consider the standard triangle partition of the two dimensional part and a uniform partition of the one dimensional part . Enumerate all nodes. We introduce then the standard piecewise linear base hat functions (independently in each of two parts; the hat function number n is equal to 1 in one of the nodes of the grid and it vanishes in all other nodes; these hat functions are defined for all nodes with exception of the nodes belonging to the interface line γδ . Formally, this set of base functions corresponds to two independent sets of standard hat functions defined in 2D part and in 1D part with the Dirichlet condition on γδ . Then we complete the union of these two sets of 2D and 1D hat functions by one special hybrid hat function (”super-element”) which is defined on the union Gε ∪ (δ, 1) and it is partially 2D and partially 1D hat function: it is piecewise linear, it is equal to 1 on γδ (i.e. for all nodes of γδ ) and it is equal to zero in all other nodes. Finally, we extend all standard 2D hat functions by zero on the 1D part, we extend all standard 1D hat functions by zero on the 2D part, and then use all hat functions (the hybrid ”super-element” included) to form a base of finite element subspace Hf1e and we state the problem (6.1.14) on this subspace, i.e. (R, ρ) ∈ Hf1e . We developed the direct numerical study of the model 2D problem (6.1.5),(6.1.6) by finite element method and the numerical study of the partially decomposed problem (6.1.14). The comparison of results of these numerical experiments shows the excellent precision of the partially decomposed problem with respect to the original 2D problem.

The same numerical experiment for a one bundle rod structure (see definition below in section 6.1.3) confirms the closeness of the original and the hybrid models.

Now to justify the passage from the problem (6.1.5), (6.1.6) to the problem (6.1.12), we should prove the existence and uniqueness of the solution of the problem (6.1.12) (which is not standard) and prove its stability with respect to perturbations in the right hand sides of the conditions (6.1.13) and (6.1.11’). Note that the question of stability could be reduced to the stability of the condition (6.1.11’) only. Indeed let U c be the solution of the following boundary layer problem : ⎧ ∆U c = 0 for ξ ∈ Ω, ⎪ ⎪ c ⎪ ⎪ ξ1 = 0, ξ2 ∈ (− 14 , 14 ), ⎨ U = 0 for 1 ∂U c ∂ξ2 = 0 for ξ2 = ± 2 , c ⎪ 1 ∂U ⎪ ⎪ ⎪ ∂ξ1 = 1 for ξ1 = 0, |ξ2 | ≥ 4 , ⎩ U c → const as ξ1 → +∞.

Add the corrector εK v(0)U c ( xε ) to U (K) in the domain G1ε = (0, δ) ×

(− 2ε , 2ε ).

√ Note that the norm H 1 (G1ε ) of this corrector is O(εK−1 εδ) and that the corrected solution satisfies to all conditions (6.1.12) exactly and to conditions (6.1.11’) up to the term O(εK ). Thus the justification of the passage from the problem (6.1.5), (6.1.6) to the problem (6.1.12) is reduced to the questions of existence and uniqueness of the solution (6.1.12) and its stability with respect to the perturbations in the conditions (6.1.11’) only. Let us prove now that the problem (6.1.12) is uniquely solvable. Consider the variational formulation (6.1.14) (the other proof is given for classical formulation in [156]). The Poincar´ é-Friedrichs inequality gives:

RL2 ((0,δ)×(− 2ε , 2ε )) ≤ Cδ∇RL2 ((0,δ)×(− ε2 , 2ε )) ,

where C does not depend on δ, ε, and ρL2 ((δ,1)) ≤ Cρ′ L2 ((δ,1)) . So the right hand side functional is bounded by √ C εf L2 ((0,1)) (∇R2L2 ((0,δ)×(− ε , ε )) + ερ′ 2L2 ((δ,1)) )1/2 . 2 2

Applying the Lax-Milgram lemma we obtain the existence and uniqueness of the solution. We obtain also the a priori estimate U 2H 1 ((0,δ)×(− ε , ε )) + εv2H 1 ((δ,1)) ≤ U, v1 = 2 2

√ C1 εf L2 ((0,1)) .

The perturbations in the conditions (6.1.11’) could be implemented to the right hand side by simple subtraction of a pair of functions Ψ ∈ H 1 ((0, δ) × (− 2ε , 2ε )) and ψ ∈ H 1 ((δ, 1)) such that

6.1.


349

1) this pair satisfies the boundary conditions ∂Ψ/∂n = 0, x ∈ γ3 ∩{x1 ≤ δ}, Ψ = 0 on γ2 and ψ(δ) = ψ(1) = 0; 2) the trace of the function Ψ(δ, x2 ) is equal to the given perturbation in the ε/2 ∂Ψ (δ, x2 )dx2 is equal to the first condition (11’) and the value ψ ′ (δ) − 1ε −ε/2 ∂x 1 given perturbation in the second condition (6.1.11’) The structure of the asymptotic solution Uε shows that for any K, there exists K1 ∈ IR such that if δ = K1 ε |lnε| then the perturbations in (6.1.11’) are of order O(εK ) . Therefore again for any K, there exist K1 ∈ IR such that if δ = K1 ε |lnε| then

U Uε(K) − U , v (K) − v1 = O(εK ). On the other hand, U Uε(K) − uε H 1 (B ε ) = O(εK ). So for any K, there exist K1 ∈ IR such that if δ = K1 ε |lnε| then uε − U H 1 ((0,δ)×(− ε2 , 2ε )) = O(εK ),

uε − vH 1 ((δ,1)×(− ε2 , 2ε )) = O(εK ).

6.1.3

Poisson equation in a rod structure

In the same way the partially decomposed problem can be set for the Poisson equation in a rod structure ( the asymptotic expansion of the solution was built in Chapter 4 and [148]). It could be proved that the same estimate holds true. Describe the method in a simple case of a rod structure containing one bundle. Let e1 , ... , en be n closed segments in IRs (s = 2, 3), which have a single common point O (i.e. the origin of the coordinate system), and let it be the common end point of all these segments. Let β1 , ..., βn be n bounded (s-1)dimensional domains in IRs , which belong to n hyper-planes containing the point O. Let βj be orthogonal to ej . Let βjε be the image of βj obtained by a homothetic contraction in 1/ε times with the center O. Denote Bjε the open cylinders with the bases βjε and with the heights ej , denote also βˆjε the second base of each cylinder Bjε and let Oj be the end of the segment ej which belongs to the base βˆjε . Define the bundle of segments ej centered in O as B = ∪nj=1 ej . Denote below O0 = O. Define the one bundle rod structure associated with the bundle B as the set B ε of inner points of the union ∪nj=1 B¯jε . Here the bar means the operation of the closure.

A one bundle rod structure. e e Introduce the local coordinate system Ox10j ...xs0j associated with a segment e0j ej such that the direction of the axis Ox1 coincides with the direction of the e e e segment OOj , i.e. x10j is a longitudinal coordinate. The axes Ox10j , ..., Oxs0j form a cartesian coordinate system. Define some cutting functions χj on IR+ . Let dj ε be the minimal distance from the base of the cylinders Bjε to a parallel cross-section σjε of Bjε such that this cross-section does not contain points of other cylinders (i.e. σjε ∩ e e Biε = ∅, i = j). Then let χj = 0 for x10j ≤ dj and χj = 1 for x10j ≥ dj + 1; 2 we suppose that the function χj ∈ C and it does not depend on ε. e e In the same way we can introduce local coordinate systems Oj x1j0 ...xsj0 ej0 associated with ej such that the direction of the axis Oj x1 coincides with the e e direction of the segment Oj O, and so x10j = |ej | − x1j0 . Consider the Poisson equation ∆uε = f (x), x ∈ B ε

Cut off the cylinders Bjε at the distance δ = const ε ln (ε) from the nodes by the planes perpendicular to the segments and replace the inner parts of the cylinders by the corresponding parts of the segments ej . We obtain the set B ε,δ . Denote Biε,δ the connected truncated part of B ε , containing the node Oi , and denote eij the part of one segment e = Oi Oj among e1 , ..., en which connects Biε,δ and Bjε,δ ; let Sij be a cross-section of the truncated cylinder corresponding to eij , such that it belongs to ∂Biε,δ .

Let us give the variational formulation for this problem. Let H 1 (B0ε,δ , ..., Bnε,δ , e1 , ..., en ) be the space of ordered collections (U U0 , ..., Un , w1 , ..., wn ), where Ui are the functions from H 1 (Biε,δ ), equal to zero on ∂Biε,δ ∩ ∪nj=1 βˆjε , and w1 , ..., wn are the e functions of the variable x1j associated with the segments e1 , ..., en such that for each Sj1 ,j2 we have Uj1 = wj , (6.1.25) where ej = ej1 ,j2 . The scalar product is defined as ((U U0 , ..., Un , w1 , ..., wn ), (V V0 , ..., Vn , v1 , ..., vn ))P = n s ∂U Ui ∂Φi e s−1 dx + ε mesβ βj vj′ wj′ dx10j . ε,δ ε,δ n ∂x ∂x r r Bi r=1 j=1 ej \∪i=0 Bi

(U U0 , ..., Un , w1 , ..., wn )P = ((U U0 , ..., Un , w1 , ..., wn ), (U U0 , ..., Un , w1 , ..., wn ))P . Then the variational formulation is as follows: find (U U0 , ..., Un , v1 , ..., vn ) ∈ H 1 (B0ε,δ , ..., Bnε,δ , e1 , ..., en ) such that for any (Φ0 , ..., Φn , w1 , ..., wn ) ∈ H 1 (B0ε,δ , ..., Bnε,δ , e1 , ..., en ) the integral identity holds true:

This construction can be easily generalized to the case of a finite rod structure with m bundles of bars: 1 m B1 = ∪nj=1 ej,1 , ..., Bm = ∪nj=1 ej,m .

We suppose that all common points of these bundles are end points of some segments of these bundles. Let the union of all bundles be connected. Consider the rod structure Bαε associated with the bundle Bα and let ε B ε = ∪m α=1 Bα

be connected. Then the same asymptotic decomposition of the domain gives the estimate (6.1.31). We can also add some small domains in the neighborhoods of the nodes, as it was done in section 4.1.

General description of the variational version

Let Hε be a family of Hilbert spaces (depending on a small parameter ε). Consider a variational problem: find uε ∈ Hε such that ∀w ∈ Hε , B(uε , w) = (f, w).

(6.2.1)

Here B(., .) is a bilinear symmetric coercive form and (f, .) is a linear bounded functional with the norm f . We suppose that ∀w ∈ Hε , B(w, w) ≥ c1 εr w2 ,

(6.2.2)

where c1 > 0 and r ≥ 0 do not depend on ε, ∀u, w ∈ Hε , B(u, w) = B(w, u).

On the other hand, by definition, we get ∀w ∈ Hε , |(f, w)| ≤ f w.

Then it is well known that there exists a unique solution uε of problem (6.2.1). Let Hε,dec be a linear subspace of Hε . Let uaε be an asymptotic solution such that (i) uaε ∈ Hε,dec , and such that: (ii) there exists a functional (ψε , .) ∈ Hε∗ such that its norm ψε ≤ c2 , where c2 does not depend on ε, and ∀w ∈ Hε , B(uaε , w) = (f, w) + εK (ψε , w), where K > r. Subtracting (6.2.1) from (6.2.5) we obtain ∀w ∈ Hε , B(uaε − uε , w) = εK (ψε , w),

i.e. for w = uaε − uε we obtain c1 εr uaε − uε ≤ εK ψε ≤ εK c2 , i.e. uaε − uε ≤ (c2 /c1 )εK−r , i.e. uaε − uε = O(εK−r ).

(6.2.6)

udε

Let be a solution (its existence is assumed)of the partially decomposed problem, i.e. of the identity (6.2.1) restricted onto the subspace Hε,dec : ∀w ∈ Hε,dec , B(udε , w) = (f, w).

(6.2.7)

We assume the existence and uniqueness of solution udε of problem (6.2.7). We assume that subspace Hε,dec has a more simple structure than Hε , for example the functions of Hε,dec are polynomial on the regular part Gε1 of the domain. Therefore the problem (6.2.7) is in some sense easier than problem (6.2.1). So the variational version is related to a special choice of a simple subspace Hε,dec (i.e. special restriction of the original problem), satisfying the conditions (i), (ii). To justify the variational version let us subtract the identity (6.2.7) from (6.2.5) for any w ∈ Hε,dec . Then we obtain ∀w ∈ Hε,dec , B(uaε − udε , w) = εK (ψε , w), i.e. for w = uaε − udε we obtain c1 εr uaε − udε ≤ εK ψε ≤ εK c2 , i.e. uaε − udε ≤ (c2 /c1 )εK−r , i.e. uaε − udε = O(εK−r ).

(6.2.8)

Comparing the estimates (6.2.6) and (6.2.8) we obtain uε − udε = O(εK−r ).

(6.2.9)

This estimate justifies the method. We can also consider a more general problem, when Bε,t is an arbitrary ( ˜ ε,T × Hε,T to IR satisfying instead of the possibly non-linear) mapping from H above inequality the following relation: ˜ ε,T , ∀w1 , w2 ∈ H

here α is a positive constant. Now the above proof of estimate (6.2.9) is modified as follows. ˜ ε,T . Let uaε be an asymptotic solution such that Let Hε,dec be a subspace of H (i) uaε ∈ Hε,dec , and such that ∗ (ii) there exists ψε ∈ Hε,T , such that ψε ≤ c2 , where c2 does not depend on ε, and such that for almost all t ∈ (0, T ), ∀w ∈ Hε,T , Bε,t (uaε , w) = (fft , w) + εK (ψε , w),

(6.2.5′ )

where K > r. Subtracting (6.2.1) from (6.2.5’) we get ∀t ∈ (0, T ), ∀w ∈ Hε,T , Bε,t (uaε , w) − Bε,t (uε , w) = εK (ψε , w), i.e. for w = uaε − uε passing to supt∈(0,T ) we have c1 εr uaε − uε Tα ≤ εK ψε T ≤ εK c2 , i.e. uaε − uε T = O(ε

(6.2.6′ )

Let udε be the solution of the partially decomposed problem, i.e. of the identity restricted onto the subspace Hε,dec : ∀w ∈ Hε,dec , Bε,t (udε , w) = (fft , w),

(6.2.7′ )

As above, we assume that this subspace has a more simple structure than Hε,T . Let us subtract this identity from (6.2.1) written for any w ∈ Hε,dec . Then we obtain ∀t ∈ (0, T ), ∀w ∈ Hε,dec , Bε,t (uaε , w) − Bε,t (udε , w) = εK (ψε , w), i.e. for w = uaε − udε passing to supt∈(0,T ) we obtain K K c1 εr uaε − udε α T ≤ ε ψε T ≤ ε c2 ,

This theorem generalizes estimate (6.2.9) and justifies the MAPDD for the non-linear and non-steady-state case.

Returning to the example (6.1.5),(6.1.6), we can define Hε as a subspace of functions of H 1 ((0, 1) × (− 2ε , 2ε )) vanishing on γ1 ∪ γ2 . Then the identity (6.2.1) is

Consider now the subspace ε ε Hε,dec = {w ∈ Hε , w(x1 , x2 ) = ρ(x1 ) in (δ, 1) × (− , ), ρ ∈ H 1 ((δ, 1))}. 2 2

Evidently, the partially decomposed problem in this second version coincides with the problem (6.1.14) up to the notations: 5 U (x1 , x2 ) if x1 < δ, uε (x1 , x2 ) = v(x1 ) if x1 ≥ δ, w(x1 , x2 ) =

R(x1 , x2 ) if x1 < δ, ρ(x1 ) if x1 ≥ δ.

The asymptotic solution uaε should be slightly corrected because in a form (6.1.7’) it does not belong to the subspace Hε,dec (it is not a constant on the rectangle (δ, 1) × (− 2ε , 2ε ) although the error is exponentially small). Therefore we multiply the boundary layer functions Ul at the domain where they are exponentially small by a cutting function χ; i.e. let χ be a smooth function defined on IR such that 5 1 if t < −1, χ(t) = 0 if t ≥ 0,

|χ(t)| ≤ 1, then uaε (x) =

due to exponential decaying of Ul (ξ) as ξ1 → +∞, and this correction gives a discrepancy of the same order in the variational formulation (6.2.10). So for any K we can find K1 such that if δ = K1 ε |ln ε| then δ

e−c3 ε = O(εK ),

and the conditions (i) and (ii) of the subsection 6.2.1 are satisfied and we again obtain the estimate uaε − udε H 1 (Gε ) = O(εK ),

In this case we can easily check the hypothesis (i) and (ii) and prove the same result as in the case of the rectangle Gε if the hypothesis of section 4.4 are satisfied. This result can be generalized for a multi bundle rod structure (in particular, three dimensional rod structure satisfying to the conditions of Chapter 4). The Korn inequality for rod structures is proved in Appendices 4.A3 and 5.A2. Let us mention that it would be reasonable to apply to the partially decomposed problem the classical domain decomposition method for all 1-dimensional

The comparison of the direct implementation of the finite elements to problem (6.2.12)-(6.2.14) to the MAPDD finite element implementation is shown in the Figure 6.2.1 (computed by R.Paz and V.Ruas); here the data are taken as follows: ε = 0.05, µ = λ = 1, and f = (0, 1)T . The mesh contains twelve thousand elements.

So the partially decomposed problem is reduced to the problem of the type (6.2.3) with replacement of vα by the relations (6.2.36), (6.2.37). The same modifications can be done in case of rod structures with the right hand side function depending on the longitudinal variable (as in Chapter 4). The other method to solve the problem with the right hand side function depending on x1 is to consider the standard variational formulation of the problem (6.2.25),(6.2.13),(6.2.14) restricted to the Hilbert subspace Hε,dec of Hε , such that its elements have the form of the truncated series uB , i.e. K+1 l=0

This approach can be applied for asymptotic partial decomposition of some homogenization problems (see section 6.4).

Variational formulation (6.3.10) can be obtained in a following way (cf. secε 0 ε ˆ0 tion 6.2). Consider the subspace H div =0 (B , δ) of the space Hdiv =0 (B ) which 0 ε ˆ ˆ contains all functions U of Hdiv=0 (B , δ) such that for any truncated segment ej1 ,j2 they coincide with the Poiseuille flow uej1 ,j2 , 0, ..., 0)T , on the truncated part of the cylinder forming cj1 ,j2 Γj1 ,j2 (˜ ε B stretched between the cross sections Sj1 ,j2 and Sj2 ,j1 ; cj1 ,j2 is a constant on this truncated cylinder.

It can be proved as in [87] that for sufficiently small ε there exists a unique solution to (6.3.11) due to the fixed point theorem and the Poincar´ é - Friedrichs inequality for B ε . The a priori estimate holds true with a constant independent of ε. Suppose that fî in vicinities of nodes are approximated by Taylor’s formula up to the terms O(εK ) as it was done in section 4.5.

The estimate (6.3.16) justifies the MAPDD for the Navier-Stokes problem. Remark 6.3.2 The present section is devoted to an approximation of completely three-dimensional (two-dimensional) problem by a hybrid problem that is ”mainly one-dimensional”, i.e., it is of dimension 1 on the major part of the domain. On the other hand another related problem was considered recently by S.A.Nazarov and M.Specovius-Neugebauer [122,184]. They constructed a special approximation of problems in unbounded domain by problems in bounded (truncated) domain. This approach also takes into consideration the information on asymptotic behavior of solution of the problem in unbounded domain at infinity. Remark 6.3.3 Some numerical experiments on MAPDD were developed in case of the Stokes flow in thin domains. The comparison to the direct numerical computation of a solution of the problem shows that for the case when the viscosity ν is finite, the boundary layers are very narrowly localized in the neighborhoods of the junctions, so δ can be taken almost equal to just ε. However, if the Reynolds number becomes greater (for example if the viscosity is small) then the multi-dimensional parts become also greater. The same remark holds for the flows in wavy tubes and for the extrusion process modelling. The Stokes flow in an extruder with a screw of a form presented in Figure 6.3.4 was computed by I.Sirakov using the asymptotic domain decomposition on five subdomains, as it is shown in the Figure 6.3.5. The pressure and the particles trajectories were calculated (Figure 6.3.6).

6.4. THE PARTIAL HOMOGENIZATION

6.4

The partial homogenization

This section is devoted to an application of MAPDD to the homogenization problem. The idea of partial homogenization on some subdomain was discussed in [156]: we replace the initial equation by the homogenized equation of high order on the main part of the domain and we keep the initial equation in some boundary strip. The main question is how to conjugate these two equations (probably of different order) to obtain the accuracy of given power of ε.

Figure 6.4.1. The partial homogenization. Here below we consider the model problem in a layer with Dirichlet boundary condition, and we propose and justify a method of ”conjugation” of the higher order homogenized equation with the initial equation. Consider the homogenization of a boundary value problem in a layer [132],[133]: s

f is a C ∞ - regular function. Let T be a finite number, multiple of ε. Assume that Akj are piecewise smooth functions in the sense [16]. Then there exists a unique T −periodic in x2 , . . . , xs , solution to this problem (see [16]); T is a multiple of ε. This solution is a solution of the following variational formulation. Let H01,per′ be a space that is completion of the space of C ∞ − regular T −periodic in x2 , . . . , xs functions vanishing if x1 = 0 or x1 = d with respect to the norm H 1 ((0, d) × (0, T )s−1 ); then uε is sought as function of H01,per′ satisfying

1 These cell problems are set in variational formulation in Hper , that is the ∞ completion of the space of C −regular 1−periodic functions with respect to the norm H 1 ((0, 1)s ). This sequence of problems is solved recurrently for l = 1, 2, . . . , K + 1.

Functions vj are defined in another sequence of problems (see [133], [16] ) but we do not need this information for the further developments. Let us describe the method of asymptotic partial decomposition of domain for problem (6.4.1) (in formulation (6.4.2)). Consider the subspace Hε,δ, dec of the space H01,per′ that consists of all functions u of H01,per′ having for all x1 ∈ [δ, d − δ] the following presentation in the form of Bakhvalov’s ansatz [16]:

The terms containing derivatives ∂ξ∂k are dropped if k = K +2, and ∂ξ∂ j are dropped if l = K +2; these coefficients were introduced in [183]. This presentation holds true due to the separation of variables x′ and x1 in (6.4.7) and (6.4.10) and because < Nl >= 0 for all l > 0. Below ε is a fixed positive number small enough, such that the ratio T /ε is integer.

Let us check that it is really an inner product. Indeed, its bi-linearity and symmetry properties are evident; its non-negativeness is a consequence of the non-negativeness of the quadratic part of J(u, u). Assume now that a(u, this quadratic part of J(u, u) vanishes and so u = 0, then v; u, v) = 0.′ Then ′ u(x , x )dx = 0 for x1 ∈ (δ, d − δ); therefore (as < Nl >= 0 for l > 0) 1 (0,T )s−1 v(x1 ) = 0 for x1 ∈ (δ, d − δ). Problem (6.4.8) is equivalent to the following problem: find a couple K+2 (ud , vd ), ∈ Hε,δ,dec × H K+2 ((δ, d − δ))

K+2 × H K+2 ((δ, d − δ)) Consider problem (6.4.8) set on the completion of Hε,δ,dec with respect to the norm a(•, •; •, •). Applying now the Riesz theorem we get the existence and the uniqueness of solution. Remark 6.4.1 Let Akj be constant coefficients equal to δkj . Then Nl = 0 ˜ lm = δl1 δm1 and therefore the completion of for all l > 0 and N0 = 1, and so h K+2 K+2 Hε,δ,dec × H ((δ, d − δ)) is a subspace of space H01 per′ × H 1 ((δ, d − δ)) such ∂u =0 that, for all x1 ∈ (δ, d − δ), u(x) = v(x1 ), where v ∈ H 1 ((δ, d − δ)), ie., ∂x j for all x1 ∈ (δ, d − δ), j = 2, ..., s. 2 2 ˜ Assume now that < NK +2 >= 0. Then hK+2,K+2 =< A11 NK +2 > is positive. Varying w ∈ H K+2 ((δ, d − δ)) we prove that v satisfies on (δ, d − δ) the ordinary differential equation K+2

This v belongs to C ∞ ([δ, d − δ]) because f ∈ C ∞ ([0, d]) and therefore ud ∈

Applying now estimate (6.2.9) we get the following theorem. Theorem 6.4.1. The estimate holds true uε − ud H 1 ((0,d)×(0,T )s−1 ) = O(εK+1 ).

(6.4.13)

The solution of problem (6.4.8) satisfies equation (6.4.1) for x ∈ GBL and boundary conditions (6.4.1) for x1 = 0 and for x1 = d, it satisfies as well equation (6.4.12) for vd and the 2K + 4 interface conditions for x1 = δ and for x1 = d − δ. Let us give these conditions for x1 = δ; for x1 = d−δ they are the same. Firstly, ud and v satisfy conditions (6.4.7) for x1 = δ (and for x1 = d − δ). And then there are K + 2 interface conditions that are the consequences of the integration by parts and of the equating the coefficients of D1r w(δ), r = 0, ..., K + 1 : T 1−s

Remark 6.4.2 Another way to prove the existence of solution of (6.4.8) is to prove that ”the classical solution” of problem (2.1) in GBL , satisfying

boundary conditions (6.4.1) for x1 = 0 and for x1 = d, equation (6.4.12) for vd and interface conditions (6.4.7) and (6.4.14) for x1 = δ and for x1 = d − δ is a solution to (6.4.8). In order to find this classical solution let us find first a T −periodic in x′ solution ud0 of equation (6.4.1) in GBL and vanishing for x1 = 0, δ, d − δ and d, and a solution vd0 of equation (6.4.12) satisfying conditions D1l v(δ) = 0, D1l v(d − δ) = 0, l = 0, ..., K + 1. Then we seek vd in a form vd = vd0 +

The same interface conditions we have on the surface Sd−δ = {x1 = d − δ, x2 , . . . , xs ∈ [0, T ]}; δ in these conditions has to be replaced by d − δ. In GBL we keep equation (6.4.1) for u ¯d . So, (6.4.1) in GBL for u ¯d , (6.4.20) in GI for v,

and interface conditions (6.4.21) on Sδ and on Sd−δ constitute the differential version of partially homogenized problem (6.4.8) for K = 0. Estimates (6.4.13) give the error of order O(ε). This estimate improves the standard estimate for the difference of the exact solution and of the first order √ asymptotic solution without the boundary layer corrector that is of order O( ε). The idea of the partial homogenization can be applied to the creation of hybrid semi-discrete (semi-continuum) models. Such models are important for nano-structures. The nano-structures are often constituted of a very thin layer (coating) on a homogeneous body. The thickness of the coating is of order of some hundreds of atomic sizes, and the properties change very rapidly across the coating. Therefore it is reasonable to describe the field in the coating layer by a discrete model, similar to some difference scheme, while the main material of course should be described by some continuum model, that is, for example, a partial differential equation. The interface conditions between these two models could be obtained using the ideas of the partial asymptotic domain decomposition. Let us consider a very simple example of a model problem of this kind. Consider the finite difference scheme [173]

(aε yx )x¯ = fi ,

i = 1, ..., N − 1,

y0 = 0, yN = 0.

(6.4.22)

Here N is an integer number, y = (y0 , ..., yN ) stands for an unknown vector with the components describing the field in the nodes of the atomic grill xi = ih, where h = N1 is the small parameter, the step of the grill, ie. the distance between atoms; fi are given real numbers, the right hand side; ε is a small parameter, characterizing the variation scale of the coefficient in the coating layer, ε ≥ h. We use here the notations from [173]: for any vector w = (w0 , ..., wN ), we define the vector wx = (wx 0 , ..., wx N −1 ), such that, wx i = wi+1h−wi ; in the same way for any vector w = (w0 , ..., wN ), we define i−1 the vector wx¯ = (wx¯ 1 , ..., wx¯ N ), such that, wx¯ i = wi −w ; aε is a given coh efficient Kε (x) that is multiplied by yx according the following rule: aε yx is an N −dimensional vector with the components Kε (xi + 0.5h)yx i , i = 0, .., N − 1. Assume that for some given finite M, Kε (x) is defined as K( xε ) if x ≤ M ε, and as 1 if x ≥ M ε, where K is a continuous positive function, such that, there exists a positive κ, such that, K(ξ) ≥ κ, K(M ) = 1. So, equation (6.4.22) has a form

Kε (xi + 0.5h)(yi+1 − yi ) − Kε (xi − 0.5h)(yi − yi−1 ) = h2 = fi ,

i = 1, ..., N − 1,

y0 = 0, yN = 0.

(6.4.23)

Assume that fi = f (xi ), f ∈ C 2 [M ε, 1] and it is a restriction to [M ε, 1] of a function independent of ε and h. It is impossible to pass to the limit everywhere in (6.4.23) as ε → 0, because the coefficients and the right hand side vary rapidly in [0, M ε]. Let us consider the partially homogenized problem for an unknown function u defined in [Lh, 1] and an unknown vector y d ∈ IRL , for an integer L, that is,

382


(aε yxd )x¯ = fi ,

i = 1, ..., L − 1,

L − 1 ≥ (M + 1)ε/h,

u”(x) = f (x), x ≥ Lh, y0d = 0,

u(1) = 0, d , u(Lh) = yL

(u′ + 12 hu”)(Lh) − h

d d yL −yL−1 h

= fL .

(6.4.24)

ie. u′ (Lh) − h

d d yL −yL−1 h

=

1 fL . 2

Consider the function yid extended to the grill ωh = {xi = ih, i = 0, ..., N } as follows: yid = u(xi ) if x ≥ Lh. Then the extended yid satisfies the relations (aε yxd )x¯ = fi + ri ,

d i = 1, ..., N − 1, y0d = 0, yN = 0, √ N −1 where ri = 0 for i = 1, ..., L − 1, and r = h i=L ri2 = O( h h ), and so, [173], √ y − y d (1) = O( ),

where y(1)

N −1 (y 2 + (y = h i

2 x i ) ).

i=0

This estimate justifies the closeness of discrete model (6.4.23) and hybrid multi-scale model (6.4.24).

6.5


A great number of applied problems contain small parameters. Normally their presence either in the equation or in the domain makes the numerical implementation more complicated, more time and memory consuming. This issue emphasizes the importance of the asymptotic methods studying the behavior of the solution as the small parameter tends to zero. Nevertheless the asymptotic methods are often related to some cumbersome calculations, or they are not too comprehensible for non-specialists. That is why some special numerical methods taking into account the asymptotic behavior of the solution were developed.


383

One of such ideas has been implemented in the numerical schemes uniform with respect to the small parameter [11],[64],[181]; in the case of multi-scale problems the idea of the super-elements, hierarchic modelling or the two-scale finite element methods is developed [185],[51],[10],[180]; another approach is to prescribe some special modified boundary conditions (the so called artificial boundary conditions) in order to increase the accuracy of the approximate solution [122],[123]. The method of asymptotic partial decomposition of domain also belongs to a class of methods taking into account the structure of the asymptotic solution of the problem. It was proposed by the author in [154],[156] (the differential version), [160],[161] (the variational version). It was applied to the conductivity and the elasticity equations [161], to the Stokes [28] and the NavierStokes equation [157],[158],[162]. The finite element implementation is studied in [56],[57] and [28]. The comparison of such an implementation to the adaptive mesh methods shows that the MAPDD is not worse than the adaptive meshes because the last needs some iterations to create the final mesh. The variational version of MAPDD generalizes the idea of projection of the variational formulation on a subspace of functions having the structure of the regular asymptotic expansion. MAPDD differs from this method by keeping the initial formulation in the boundary layer zone, and so, by the idea of special asymptotic decomposition of domain. This difference is especially important, for example, in the case of thin domains of a complex structure, such as the finite rod structures.
