Description of Large Deformation Problem Using Means of Visual Strain

Article Preview

Abstract:

The constitutive equation of large deformation problem is closely related to geometric description. Nowadays, linear strain tensor is no longer unsuitable to describe large deformation. However, the existing non-linear strain tensors have complicated forms as well as no apparent geometric or physical meaning. While, the increment method is used to solve, however, convergence and efficiency are low sometimes. Thus the idea of visual strain tensor is proposed, with distinct meaning and visual image. Beside, it is likely to be used in engineering measurement, and it can be connected with measured constitutive equation directly. Thus this research provides a new idea and method for solving large-deformation problems in practical engineering.
