Problem Set 7 1) (100%) Consider the homogeneous deformation: x' = ax + by y' = cx + dy x = (dx' - by')/(ad - bc) y = (ay' - cx')/(ad - bc) a) Write expressions for the displacement vector u that takes (x,y) -> (x',y'), both in terms of (x,y) and x', y'). b) Write expressions for Eij (Lagrangian strain tensor), eij (Eulerian strain tensor), Ωij (Lagrangian rotation tensor), ωij (Eulerian rotation tensor). These can be applied incrementally over a time t, 0 ≤ t ≤ 1, by setting a -> 1 + t(a - 1), b -> bt, c -> ct, d -> 1 + t(d - 1). c) Write expressions for eij(t) and εij(t) , where εij(t) is the instantaneous Cauchy strain rate tensor. Does eij (t = 1) = 1 ∫ εÝ (t)dt ij 0 Why or why not? Consider the 2 following finite strains: 1) x' = x + 1.5y 2) x' = 2x y' = y y' = y/2 d) What special strains do they represent? e) Write Eij(t=1), eij(t=1), Ωij(t=1), ωij(t=1), and εij(t=1) for these cases. f) Calculate the principal axes for Eij(t=1), εij(t=1) , and eij(t=1) for both cases. g) In their final stage, pure and simple shears can be simply related by a rotation. Yet pure shear has 2 equivalent directions, while simple shear has only 1. Materials such as ice or olivine develop preferred fabrics when subjected to simple shear. They recrystallize under deviatoric stress with easy glide at 45° to the maximum compressive stress. Since the stresses for pure and simple shear are equivalent, how can pure shear lead to 2 preferred directions, while simple shear leads to only 1?
