Relativistic constitutive modeling of inelastic deformation of continua moving in space-time. (English) Zbl 1534.74013

Summary: Since Einstein introduced the theory of relativity, several scientific observations have proven that it thoroughly approximates the motion of materials in space-time. Thus, efforts have been made to expand classical continuum mechanics to relativistic continuum models to consider relativistic effects. However, most models consider only the elastic range without accounting for inelastic deformation. A relativistic inelasticity model should provide objective measures of the inelastic deformation for different observers with nonzero relative velocities over a wide speed range, even when the moving speed is close to the speed of light. This study presents a mathematical modeling structure of the relativistic constitutive equations of the inelastic deformation of a material moving over a wide speed range to provide objective measures for observers. In this model, the deformation tensors of classical mechanics are expanded to four-dimensional tensors (referred to relativistic Cauchy-Green deformation tensors) in space-time, based on which constitutive equations of inelastic deformation are introduced. The four-dimensional tensors are objective about the homogeneous Lorentz transformation in the Minkowski space-time, and the material dissipation, determined employing the proposed modeling of inelastic deformation, satisfies the second law of thermodynamics. In addition, an example illustrates the application of this theory by explaining the physical meaning of modeling. Finally, it is also demonstrated that the proposed relativistic inelasticity model collapses into a classical inelasticity model when the speed of motion is much slower than the speed of light.
