Hierarchical heterogeneous one-dimensional problem in linear viscoelastic media
Résumé
We address the homogenisation of a linear viscoelastic and hierarchical composite material in a onedimensional (1D) framework via a three-scale asymptotic homogenisation method. We consider a family of heterogeneous problems with periodic, rapidly-oscillating and piece-wise coefficients that model a structure with two hierarchical levels of organisation. Here, we assume continuity contact conditions at the interfaces among the constituents and set a straightforward geometrical configuration in order to gain a better insight of the multiscale problem. The main goal is to provide a general overview of the procedure and validate the approach by means of a comparison between the solution of the original heterogeneous problem, the homogenised problem and the formal asymptotic solution. In addition, we show that the three-scale approach presents a clear improvement over the recursive two-scale one, and we illustrate the convergence of the solutions towards the solution of the homogenised problem when the asymptotic parameters approach.
