PX920: Homogenisation of Non-linear Heterogeneous Solids
Short description
The module aims to provide students with understanding and practical aspects of homogenisation methods for predicting overall macroscopic response of heterogeneous solids through lectures and workshop activities.
Learning objectives:
- Understand the concept of the effective behaviour of heterogeneous materials
- Understand the concept of homogenisation
- Implement homogenisation process into finite-element solution
- Apply homogenisation to analyse simple heterogeneous solids
Syllabus:
- Effective behaviour of heterogeneous solids (week 1): introduction; implementation of bounds into a finite-element procedure
- Mathematical asymptotic homogenisation (weeks 2-3): theory
- Asymptotic homogenisation (week 4): computer implementation
- Mini-Project (week 5)
