Séminaire PMMH - Souhayl Sadik from (Aarhus University)

Vendredi 27 septembre de 11h00 à 12h00 - Salle réunion PMMH 1

Nonlinear Anisotropic Viscoelasticity

In this work, we revisit the mathematical foundations of nonlinear viscoelasticity. We study the un-
derlying geometry of viscoelastic deformations, and in particular, the intermediate configuration. Starting from the direct multiplicative decomposition of the deformation gradient F = FeFv, into elastic and viscous distortions Fe and Fv, respectively, we point out that Fv can be either a material tensor (Fe is a two-point tensor) or a two-point tensor ( Fe is a spatial tensor). We show, based on physical grounds, that the second choice is unacceptable. It is assumed that the free energy density is the sum of an equilibrium and a non-equilibrium part. The symmetry transformations and their action on the total, elastic, and viscous deformation gradients are carefully discussed. Following a two-potential approach, the governing equations of nonlinear viscoelasticity are derived using the Lagrange–d'Alembert principle, and the constitutive relations are found following the thermodynamics Coleman-Noll procedure. We discuss the constitutive and kinetic equations for compressible and incompressible isotropic, transversely isotropic, orthotropic, and monoclinic viscoelastic solids. We finally semi-analytically study creep and relaxation in three examples of universal deformations.

Keywords : Nonlinear viscoelasticity, multiplicative decomposition, intermediate configuration, anisotropic solids.

    Emerging active turbulence and chaotic advection in dense active matter
    I will show that active mesoscale flows, a.k.a. active turbulence, leading to chaotic advection generically emerge in simple models of active particles leading to streams and vortices reminiscent of multiscale flow patterns in turbulence. The characteristics of these flows do not depend on the specific details of (...)

    Origins of shear-thinning in non-Brownian suspensions
    The rheology of concentrated non-Brownian suspensions has undergone a small revolution in the last 15 years when the importance of the role played by solid contacts between particles was realized. Considering these contacts has allowed to explain the continuous or discontinuous shear-thickening in dense (...)

Information for the speakers

The audience is composed of people with rather heterogeneous backgrounds including specialists in solids, fluids, granular flows, statistical physics... so the idea is to keep your talk understandable by people not necessarily working in your field... The seminar time slot runs from 11am to noon so the best is to make the talk last around 45 minutes to leave some time for discussion.
