where f is the distributed load, [force/length], in the direction of the bar’s axis. Thus, the

The axial force is related to the strain via the elastic constitutive equation (containing the

or
n1 σ11 + n2 σ21 + n3 σ31
t n = n2 σ12 + n2 σ22 + n3 σ32 = n T σ = σ T n. (2.9)
n3 σ13 + n2 σ23 + n3 σ32
Notice the transpose in the stress tensor σ in the last expression. The stress tensori σ,
expressed in rectangular cartesian coordinate system is
σ11 σ12 σ13 σxx σxy σxz σx τxy τxz
σ = σ21 σ22 σ23 = σyx σyy σyz = τyx σy τyz . (2.10)
σ31 σ32 σ33 σzx σzy σzz τzx τzy σz
The form of the right hand side is know as von Kármán notation and the σ-symbol in it
describes the normal component of the stress and τ the shear stresses, respectively. Such
notation is common in engineering literature.
The equation (2.9) is called the Cauchy stress theorem and it can be written as
expressing the dependent quantities explicitely. It says that the traction vector depends
linearly on the normal vector n.
indicating the fact that the tensor is the same irrespectively in which coordinate system it
is expressed.
Now, taking a scalar product by parts with the vector e ′k from the left and with e ′p
from the right, we obtain
σij e ′k ·e i e j ·e ′p = σij′ e ′k ·e ′i e ′j ·e ′p (2.14)

thus

σkp = βki βpj σij or in matrix notation [σ ′ ] = [β][σ][β]T , (2.15)
where the compnents of the transformation matrix are βij = e ′i ·e j . Notice that β is the
transformation from xi -system to x′i -cordinate system.
where the vector ni defines the normal of the plane where the principal stress acts. The
homogeneous system (2.16) has solution only if the coefficient matrix is singular, thus the
determinat of it has to vanish, ad we obtain the characteristic equation
−σ 3 + I1 σ 2 + I2 σ + I3 = 0. (2.17)
Solution of the characteristic equation gives the principal values of the stress tensor, i.e.
principal stresses σ1 , σ2 ja σ3 , which are often numbered as: σ1 ≥ σ2 ≥ σ3 .
The coefficients I1 , I2 and I3 are independent of the chosen coordinate system, thus
they are called invariants.2 Notice, that the principal stresses are also independent of the
chosen coordinate system. Invariants have a central role in the development of constitutive
equations, as we will see in the subsequent chapters.
If the cordinate axes are chosen to coincide to the principal directions n i (2.16), the
stress tensor will be diagonal
σ1 0 0
σ = [σij ] = 0 σ2 0 . (2.21)
0 0 σ3
The invariants I1 , . . . , I3 have the following forms expressed in terms of the principal
stresses
I1 = σ1 + σ2 + σ3 , (2.22)
I2 = −σ1 σ2 − σ2 σ3 − σ3 σ1 , (2.23)
I3 = σ1 σ2 σ3 . (2.24)
where σm = 31 I1 = 31 σkk is the mean stress and sij the deviatoric stress tensor, for which
the notation σ ′ is also used in the literature. From the decomposition (2.25) it is observed
that the trace of the deviatoric stress tensor will vanish
trs = 0. (2.26)
The principal valuse s of the deviatoric stress tensor s can be solved from
−s3 + J1 s2 + J2 s + J3 = 0, (2.28)
2
The invariants appearing in the characteristic equation are usually called as principal invariants. No-
tice, that in this note the second invariant is often defined as of opposite sign. However, we would like to
define the principal invariants of the tensor and its deviator in a similar way.
2.5. OCTAHEDRAL PLANE AND STRESSES 13
where J1 , . . . , J3 are the invariants of the deviatori stress tensor. They can be expressed
as
J1 = trs = sii = sx + sy + sz = 0, (2.29)
J2 = 21 [tr(s 2 ) − (trs)2 ] = 21 tr(s 2 ) = 21 sij sji (2.30)
= 16 [(σx − σy )2 + (σy − σz )2 + (σz − σx )2 ] + τxy2 2
+ τyz 2
+ τzx (2.31)
= 16 [(σ1 − σ2 )2 + (σ2 − σ3 )2 + (σ3 − σ1 )2 ], (2.32)
J3 = det s. (2.33)
The deviatoric stress tensor is obtained from the stress tensor by substracting the
isotropic part, thus the principal directions of the deviatoric stress tensor coincide to the
principal directions of the stress tensor itself. Also the principal values of the deviatoric
stress tensor are related to those of the stress tensor as
s1 σ1 σm
s2 = σ2 − σm . (2.34)
s3 σ3 σm
The deviatoric invariants exressed in terms of the principal values are
J2 = 12 (s21 + s22 + s23 ), (2.35)
J3 = 31 (s31 + s32 + s33 ) = s1 s2 s3 . (2.36)
or
τmax = 12 |σ1 − σ3 |, (2.45)
if the convention σ1 ≥ σ2 ≥ σ3 is used.

The invariants I1 and J2 have thus clear geometrical and physical interpetation. The
cubic deviatoric invariant J3 is ralated to the angle θ, defined on the deviatoric plane as
an angle between the the projected σ1 -axis and the vector NP ~ , see figure 2.5. The vector
e 1 is a unit vector in the direction of the projected σ1 -axis, and has the form

Kinematical relations
The motion χ is assumed to be invertibe and sufficiently many time differentiable. The
displacement vector is defined as
u = x − X. (3.2)
The tangent vectors of the material and deformed curves are denoted as dX and dx ,
respectively, and they are defined as
dX = Γ′ (ξ)dξ, (3.4)
∂χ ′
dx = γ ′ (ξ, t)dξ = Γ (ξ)dξ = F ·dX , (3.5)

since on the deformed curve x = γ(ξ, t) = χ(Γ(ξ), t). The quantity F is called the
deformation gradient and it describes the motion in the neighbourhod of a point. It is
defined as
∂χ ∂χi
F = , or in indicial notation Fij = . (3.6)
∂X ∂Xj
The deformation gradient reduces into identity tensor I if there is no motion, or the
motion is a rigid translataion. However, rigid rotation will give a deformation gradient
not equal to the identity.

where the tensor

is called the Green-Lagrange strain tensor.
Let’s express the Green-Lagrange strain in terms of displacement vector u. It is first
observed that the deformation gradient takes the form
∂χ ∂u
F = =I + , (3.9)
∂X ∂X
3.3. DEFINITION OF STRAIN TENSORS 19
where the tensor ∂u /∂X is called the displacement gradient. Thus the Green-Lagrange
strain tensor takes the form

E= I+ I+ −I

If the elements of the displacement gradient are small in comparison to unity, i.e.
∂ui
≪ 1, (3.12)
∂Xj
then the quadratic terms can be neglected and the infinitesimal strain tensor can be defined
as the symmetric part of the displacement gradient

εij = + ≈ Eij . (3.13)
2 ∂Xj ∂Xi
λ = F ·n 0 , (3.14)
and the length of the stretch vector λ = |λ| is called the stretch ratio or simply the stretch.
The square of the stretch ratio is
λ2 = λ·λ = n 0 ·F T ·F ·n 0 = n 0 ·C ·n 0 , (3.15)
where the tensor C = F T ·F is called the right Cauchy-Green strain tensor. The atribute
right comes from the fact that the deformation gradient operates on the right hand side.
The right Cauchy-Green strain tensor is symmetric and positive definite tensor, i.e. C =
C T and n · C · n > 0, ∀n 6= 0.
For values 0 < λ < 1 a line element is compressed and elongated for values λ > 1.
The deformation gradient can also be decomposed multiplicatively as
F = R · U = V · R, (3.16)
deformation. The decomposition (3.16) is also called the polar decomposition. The tensor
U is called as the right stretch tensor and V the left stretch tensor.
The square of the stretch can be expressed as
E (0) = ln U . (3.19)
The logarithmic strain1 has a special position in non-linear continum mechanics, espe-
cially in formulating constitutive equations, since it can be additively decomposed into
volymetric and isochoric parts similarly as the small strain tensor ε.
For m = 1 we obtain
E (1) = U − I , (3.20)
which is called the Biot strain tensor. If the defrmation is rotation free, i.e. R = I , the
Biot strain tensor coincides the small strain tensor ε. It is much used in dimensionally
reduced continuum models, like beams, plates and shells.
Secondly, let’s compute the angle change of two unit vectors N 1 and N 2 . In the
deformed configuration they are n 1 = F · N 1 and n 1 = F · N 2 and the angle between
them can be determined from
n 1 ·n2 N 1 ·C · N 2
cos θ12 = =√ √ . (3.22)
|n 1 ||n 2 | N 1 ·C · N 1 N 2 ·C · N 2

The logarithmic strain is sometimes called also as the true strain. Such naming is not used in this text, all
properly defined strain measures are applicable, since the definition of strain is a geometrical construction.
Naturally, the choice of strain measure dictates the choise of the stress. However, deeper discussion on this
topic is beyong the present lecture notes.
3.5. DEFINITION OF INFINITESIMAL STRAIN 21
where the vector ni defines the normal direction of the principal strain plane. Thus, the
characteristic polynomial has the form
−ǫ3 + I1 ǫ2 + I2 ǫ + I3 = 0, (3.33)
If the coorinate axes are chosen to coincide with the axes of principal strains, the strain
tensor will be symmetric
ε1 0 0
ε = [ǫij ] = 0 ε2 0 . (3.37)
0 0 ε3
The invariants I1 , . . . , I3 expressed in terms of the principal strains ǫ1 , . . . , ǫ3 have the
forms
I1 = ǫ1 + ǫ2 + ǫ3 , (3.38)
I2 = −ǫ1 ǫ2 − ǫ2 ǫ3 − ǫ3 ǫ1 , (3.39)
I3 = ǫ1 ǫ2 ǫ3 . (3.40)
where the deviatoric strain tensor is denoted as e. In the literature also the notation ǫ′ is
used. By definition the deviatoric strain tensor is traceless
tre = 0. (3.42)
The eigenvalues of the deviatoric strain ei can be solved from the equation
−e3 + J1 e2 + J2 e + J3 = 0, (3.44)
εoct = 13 I1 = 31 εv , (3.49)
2
γoct = 38 J2 . (3.50)
For the first sight the equation (3.50) might look strange as copared to the expression of
the octahedral stress, but we have to remember that γxy = 2ǫxy , etc.

Chapter 4
Constitutive models
4.1 Introduction
Constitutive equations describe the response of a material to applied loads. In continuum
mechanics, distinction between fluids and solids can be characterized in this stage. It is
important to notice that the balance equations and the kinematical relations described in
the previous sections are equally valid both fr fluids and solids. In this lecture notes only
phenomenological models will be introduced, which roughly means that mathematical
expressions are fitted to experimental data. Phenomenological models are not capable
to relate the actual physical mechanisms of deformation to the underlying mcroscopic
physical structure of the material.
The constitutive equations should obey the thermodynamic principles, (i) the conser-
vation of energy and (ii) the dissipation inequality, i.e. the nonnegativity of the entropy
rate.
Excellent texts for materials modelling are [2, 4].
The tensor valued tensor functions fij and gij are called as response functions. For non-
linear Cauchy-elastic models, the loading-unloading process may yield hysteresis, which
is incompatible with the notion of elasticity, where the response should be reversible.
However, in this lecture notes the Couchy-elasticity is not treated.
Another form of elasticity, where the constitutive equations are expressed in rate-form
25
26 CHAPTER 4. CONSTITUTIVE MODELS
is called hypo-elastic. If the material is incrementally linear, it can be written in the form
The most rigorous form of elasticity is called as hyper-elasticity, and the constitutive
equations of a hyper-elastic model can be derived from a potential, i.e. the strain energy
function W = W (εij ) as
∂W
σij = . (4.4)
∂εij
where I1 , I2 and I3 are the principal invariants of the strain tensor and β is the transfor-
mation tensor from the x -coordinate system to the x ′ -system, i.e. x ′ = βx . Alternatively
the strain energy density function W can be written as
where J2 and J3 are the invariants of the deviatoric strain tensor and I˜2 , I˜3 the generic
invariants defined as
I˜2 = 12 tr(ε2 ), I˜3 = 21 tr(ε3 ). (4.7)
Equations (4.5) and (4.6) are spacial forms of representation theorems, for which an al-
ternative form can be written as: the most general form of an isotropic elastic material
model can be written as
σ = a0 I + a1 ε + a2 ε2 , (4.8)
where the coefficients a0 , a1 and a2 can be non-linear functions of the strain invariants.
Alternatively (4.8) can be formulated as
ε = b0 I + b1 σ + b2 σ 2 , (4.9)
The representation theorem of a transversally isotropic solid says that the strain en-
ergy density function can depend on five invariants
W = W (I1 , I2 , I3 , I4 , I5 ), (4.11)
where the invarinats Ii are
1 1
I1 = tr ε, I2 = tr(ε2 ), I3 = tr(ε3 ), I4 = tr(εM ), I5 = tr(ε2 M ). (4.12)
2 3
The invariants I4 and I5 can also be written as
I4 = tr(εM ) = m T εm, I5 = tr(ε2 M ) = m T ε2 m. (4.13)
The constitutive equation is thus
∂W ∂W ∂W ∂W 2 ∂W ∂W
σ= = I+ ε+ ε + M+ (εM + M ε). (4.14)
∂ε ∂I1 ∂I2 ∂I3 ∂I4 ∂I5
If we restrict to linear elasticity, the cefficients ∂W/∂Ii has to satisfy
∂W
= α1 I1 + βI4 , (4.15)
∂I1
∂W
= α2 , (4.16)
∂I2
∂W
= 0, (4.17)
∂I3
∂W
= α3 I 1 + α4 I 4 , (4.18)
∂I4
∂W
= α5 , (4.19)
∂I1
since all the terms in (4.14) have to be linear in ε. Due to the identity
∂2W ∂2W
= , (4.20)
∂Ii ∂Ij ∂Ij ∂Ii
28 CHAPTER 4. CONSTITUTIVE MODELS
we have now
∂ ∂W ∂ ∂W
= thus β = α3 . (4.21)
∂I4 ∂I1 ∂I1 ∂I4
Transversally isotropic linear solid has thus five material coefficients, and the constitutive
equation can be written as
σ = (α1 tr ε+α3 tr(εM ))I +α2 ε+(α3 tr ε+α4 tr(εM ))M +α5 (εM +M ε). (4.22)
The representation theorem of an orthotropic solid says that the strain energy density
function can depend on seven invariants
W = W (tr ε, 1
2
tr(ε2 ), 1
3
tr(ε3 ), tr(εM 1 ), tr(εM 2 ), tr(ε2 M 1 ), tr(ε2 M 2 )). (4.25)
It can be written in a form, where all the structural tensors M i are symmetricaly present.
Notice that
εM 1 + εM 2 εM 3 = ε(M 1 + M 2 + M 3 ) = ε, (4.26)
M 1 ε + M 2 ε + M 3 ε = (M 1 + M 2 + M 3 )ε = ε, (4.27)
and
tr ε = tr(εM 1 ) + tr(εM 2 ) + tr(εM 3 ). (4.29)
In a similar way it can be deduced
In other words, the invariants tr ε, tr(εM 1 ) and tr(εM 2 ) can be replaced by the invari-
ants I1 = tr(εM 1 ), I2 = tr(εM 2 ) and I3 = tr(εM 3 ). In a similar way the invariants
