“Tolerance and asymptotic modelling of dynamic thermoelasticity problems for thin micro-periodic cylindrical shells”, Meccanica, Vol. 55, No. 12, pp 2391-2411, December 2020, https://doi.org/10.1007/s11012-020-01184-4
ABSTRACT: The problem of linear dynamic thermoelasticity in Kirchhoff–Love-type circular cylindrical shells having properties periodically varying in circumferential direction (uniperiodic shells) is considered. In order to describe thermoelastic behaviour of such shells, two mathematical averaged models are proposed—the non-asymptotic tolerance and the consistent asymptotic models. Considerations are based on the known Kirchhoff–Love theory of elasticity combined with Duhamel-Neumann thermoelastic constitutive relations and on Fourier’s theory of heat conduction. The non-asymptotic tolerance model equations depending on a cell size are derived applying the tolerance averaging technique and a certain extension of the known stationary action principle. The consistent asymptotic model equations being independent on a microstructure size are obtained by means of the consistent asymptotic approach. Governing equations of both the models have constant coefficients, contrary to starting shell equations with periodic, non-continuous and oscillating coefficients. As examples, two special length-scale problems will be analysed in the framework of the proposed models. The first of them deals with investigation of the effect of a cell size on the shape of initial distributions of temperature micro-fluctuations. The second one deals with study of the effect of a microstructure size on the distribution of total temperature field approximated by sum of an averaged temperature and temperature fluctuations.
