linear_elasticity/prestress_fibres.py

Description

Linear elasticity with a given prestress in one subdomain and a (pre)strain fibre reinforcement in the other.

Find \ul{u} such that:

\int_{\Omega} D_{ijkl}\ e_{ij}(\ul{v}) e_{kl}(\ul{u})
+ \int_{\Omega_1} \sigma_{ij} e_{ij}(\ul{v})
+ \int_{\Omega_2} D^f_{ijkl} e_{ij}(\ul{v}) \left(d_k d_l\right)
= 0
\;, \quad \forall \ul{v} \;,

where

D_{ijkl} = \mu (\delta_{ik} \delta_{jl}+\delta_{il} \delta_{jk}) +
\lambda \ \delta_{ij} \delta_{kl}
\;.

The stiffness of fibres D^f_{ijkl} is defined analogously, \ul{d} is the unit fibre direction vector and \sigma_{ij} is the prestress.
