The basic two-dimensional boundary value problems of the fully coupled linear equilibrium theory of elasticity for solids with double porosity structure are reduced to the solvability of two types of a problem. The first one is the BVPs for the equations of classical elasticity of isotropic bodies, and the other is the BVPs for the equations of pore and fissure fluid pressures. The solutions of these equations are presented by means of elementary (harmonic, metaharmonic, and biharmonic) functions. On the basis of the gained results, we constructed an explicit solution of some basic BVPs for an ellipse in the form of absolutely uniformly convergent series.

Abstract This paper contains an explicit series solution, exact within the classical theory of elasticity, for the steady-state thermal stresses and displacements induced in a spherical shell by an arbitrary axisymmetric distribution of surface temperatures. The corresponding solutions for a solid sphere and for a spherical cavity in an infinite medium are obtained as limiting cases. The convergence of the series solutions obtained is discussed. Numerical results are presented appropriate to a solid sphere if two hemispherical caps of its boundary are maintained at distinct uniform temperatures.

This chapter presents a theory for the coupled thermal and mechanical response of solids under circumstances in which the deformations are small and elastic, and the temperature changes from a reference temperature are small --- a framework known as the theory of linear thermoelasticity. The basic equations of the fully-coupled linear theory of anisotropic thermoelasticity are derived. These equations are then specialized for the case of isotropic materials. Finally, as a further specialization a weakly-coupled theory in which the temperature affects the mechanical response, but the deformation does not affect the thermal response, are discussed; this is a specialization which is of importance for many engineering applications, a few of which are illustrated in the examples.

This chapter presents a coupled theory for transport of a single atomic (or molecular) chemical species through a solid that deforms elastically. Consideration is limited to isothermal conditions and circumstances in which the deformations are small and elastic, and the changes in species concentration from a reference concentration are small --- a framework known as the theory of linear chemoelasticity. Underlying the presented approach is the notion that the solid can deform elastically but it retains its connectivity and does not itself diffuse. To account for the energy flow due to species transport, the notion of chemical potential of the species is introduced. First the basic equations of the fully-coupled linear theory of anisotropic linear chemoelasticity are derived, and then these equations are specialized for the case of isotropic materials.

A finite element implementation with UEL user-defined element (UEL) subroutines in ABAQUS for fully coupled mechanical–chemical processes, which accounts for deformation, mass diffusion, and chemical reactions based on irreversible thermodynamics, is presented. The finite element formulations are deduced from the Gibbs function variational principle. To demonstrate the robustness of the numerical implementation, one- and two-dimensional numerical simulations with different boundary conditions are conducted. The results present the validity and capability of the UEL subroutines and the coupled theory, and show the interaction among deformation, mass diffusion and chemical reaction. This work provides a valuable tool to the researchers for the study of coupled problems.
