Concept of Homogenization Method Homogenization method allows the calculation of Homogenization method allows the calculation of composite effective properties knowing the topology of composite effective properties knowing the topology of the composite unit cell. the composite unit cell. Example of application: F F Homogenized homogenized a) Material material unit cell perforated beam Homogenized homogenized b) Material material unit cell brick wall
Concept of Homogenization Method It allows the replacement of the composite medium by an It allows the replacement of the composite medium by an “equivalent” homogeneous medium to solve the global “equivalent” homogeneous medium to solve the global problem. problem. Advantage in relation to other methods: • it needs only the information about the unit cell • it needs only the information about the unit cell • the unit cell can have any complex shape • the unit cell can have any complex shape Complex unit cell topologies implementation using FEM Analytical methods • Mixture rule models - no interaction between phases • Self-consistent methods - some interaction, limited to simple geometries
Concept of Homogenization Method Assumptions y x Enlarged Enlarged Component Periodic Microstructure Unit Cell (Microscale) • Periodic composites ; h Asymptotic analysis, mathematically correct; h Scale of microstructure must be very small compared to the size of the part; • Acoustic wavelength larger than unit cell dimensions. (Dispersive behavior can also be modeled)
