1. Introduction

T ijk nk ¼ t ij

A finite deformation micromorphic plasticity theory, exhibiting isotropic and kinematic hardening, and incorporating damage effects, has been proposed in Part II. The theory is consistent with the second law of thermodynamics and deals with a plastic micromorphic curvature tensor, which is not required to fulfill some compatibility conditions, i.e., it is not related to some gradient terms. Furthermore, a measure of smallness e has been introduced in Part II, and the theory has been defined to be of small deformations, if terms only up to order OðeÞ are retained. It is a straightforward task to verify that the small deformation version of the micromorphic model proposed, reads as follows (we confine attention to static balance equations and omit the body and double body forces): Equilibrium equations:

The aim of the present paper is to demonstrate the capabilities of this model in describing size effects present in bending of beam specimens and in plates with a hole under tension loading. It should be remarked that Parts I and II made it clear, that micromorphic constitutive theories are very complex and include a large number of material parameters. Therefore, we decided to make transparent capabilities of such theories only for small deformations, excluding from considerations geometrical nonlinearities. Also, several material parameters will be assumed to vanish, in order to reduce the effort of the analysis. Of course, this implies that important capabilities of the model may be not activated. However, the present investigation is not entitled to be complete and will be of qualitative character only. This also concerns the isotropic hardening rule. In fact, isotropic hardening effects due to strains and micromorphic curvature tensors are captured in a unified manner. There are, however, possibilities to account for isotropic hardening effects due to strain and micromorphic curvature effects separately. Such isotropic hardening rules have been elaborated by Grammenoudis and Tsakmakis [1] in micropolar plasticity and are not pursuit here.

Examples illustrating the capabilities of the theory to capture size effects are given in this section and are taken from the doctoral thesis of Hofer [2], where also more details about the implementation are given. Further examples and interesting results on this topic may be found in Dillard et al. [3], Kirchner and Steinmann [4], Neff and Forest [5], Lazar and Maugin [6] as well as Hirschberger and Steinmann [7]. In the ensuing analysis, the chosen values of the material parameters do not reflect some responses of realistic material behavior, i.e., they are only of academic interest and serve to discuss basic features of the model.

2.1. Pure micromorphic elasticity 2.1.1. Rectangular specimens with circular hole under tension loading Consider the plane strain problem in Fig. 1 where the quadratic section (length b) with a circular hole (radius r) located in the center of the section, is stretched in y direction. With respect to the Cartesian coordinate system x, y, the boundaries x ¼ 7 b=2 are assumed to be traction-free. At the boundary y ¼  b=2 the displacement uy and the traction tx are assumed to vanish, while at the boundary y ¼ b=2, given displacement uy and traction tx ¼ 0 are imposed. The whole circular hole is assumed to be traction free, while the whole boundary is subjected to vanishing double traction tðdÞ . For small circular hole, a nearly uniform stress component s0 in y direction, at y ¼ b=2, will be required to realize the given boundary conditions. In classical elasticity, attention is focussed

In the present context, we refer to as classical, the case where a  0, c7  0, which are approximated numerically for given values of b, r. Particularly, we set b ¼ 2:5 mm and r ¼ 0:25 mm, which imply the value Tyy =s0 ¼ 3:14. Typical properties of micromorphic elasticity may be elucidated by regarding the distribution of Tyy =s0 along the line y ¼ 0 and x Zr, or equivalently a :¼ x  r Z 0.

The effect of a, c7 on the stress concentration factor is illustrated in Fig. 3. For very large values a=m and values c7 =m Z103 mm2 , the stress concentration factor Tyy =s0 becomes decreasing, whereas for small a=m the value of Tyy =s0 is nearly equal to the classical one. It seems that, at fixed a=m, Tyy =s0 converges for c7 =m against 1 or 0, respectively to limits, the limit for c7 =m-0 being the classical one. To obtain an insight into the size effects due to different, but otherwise similar boundary value problems, we ask for the stress concentration factor Tyy =s0 for the cases where a  m and geometry and boundary conditions of the specimens vary from each other according to a factor n ¼ 1, 4, 20, 200. Corresponding results are displayed in Fig. 4, from which we deduce that all distributions are similar. In fact, if the Tyy =s0 values corresponding to the specimen according to factor n are plotted as a function of c7 =ðm  n2 Þ, then all plots will coincide (see Fig. 5). In other words, for linear micromorphic elasticity, size effects may be visualized by varying the parameter c7, the other parameters being held fixed. Further size effects may be elucidated by introducing a typical geometry length, as, e.g., lm :¼ 4r ¼ 0:4b. Again we concentrate ourself on specimen geometries and related boundary conditions, differing according to a factor n, with n being now n ¼ 0:0001; 0:01; . . . ; 400; 10 000. On choosing c7 =m ¼ 0:1 mm2 , the internal length lc becomes lc ¼ 0:31623 mm. It can be seen

145

in Fig. 6, that the stress concentration factor Tyy =s0 is a function of the ratio lm =lc (cf. also [9]). %

points, which indicate large amounts of stress gradients. Clearly, the edge point x ¼ l, y ¼ b could be selected for this goal. However, such points will exhibit stress distributions with some singularities. Therefore, we shall confine the discussion on points A, B located at a distance of about 0:02  l and 0:17  l, from the boundary x ¼ l, respectively. Note that the length l and the height b of the beam are chosen to be l ¼ 3:4375 mm and b ¼ 1:25 mm, while the displacement component prescribed on the boundary x ¼ 0 amounts u y ¼ 0:01 mm. Also, A, B are Gauss points with distances from the upper boundary y ¼ b, of about 0:033  b, respectively. However, we shall refer to such points as being located at the upper boundary y ¼ b ¼ 1:25 mm. Accordingly, Fig. 8 displays the stress component Txx at the boundary y ¼ b, as a function of x. It may be seen, that in the neighborhood of x ¼ l, the stress component Txx takes vary large values, which designates the singularity in the distribution of Txx . Once more, we denote by ‘‘classical’’, solutions obtained numerically for very small values a=m and c7 =m. Fig. 9 makes clear, that in the neighborhood of the singularity (point A), stress ðclassÞ , dependent on the component Txx may become larger than Txx material parameters a, c7 . However, with increasing distance from the singularity point, as, e.g., at point B, Txx remains smaller than ðclassÞ , independent of material parameters a, c7 (see Fig. 10). Txx Significant differences between the shear stress components Txy and Tyx may be present, as can be seen in Fig. 11, for point A. Both components approach for very large values of c7 =m, different limits, the one for Txy being vanishing. Of particular interest is also the response of the couple stress Mc :¼ T xyx  T yxx , which is shown in Fig. 11 too. It can be recognized that Mc is vanishing for small values c7 =m, while Mc approaches a constant value for very large values c7 =m.

Finally, Fig. 12 illustrates, for fixed a ¼ m, the effect of material parameter c7 on the deformed geometry of the beam. It may be recognized that for small values of c7 the bending mode is dominated, while for very large values of c7 the deformation resamples simple shear mode. 2.2.

2.2.1. Uniaxial loading First, we present calculations for homogeneous uniaxial tension loading of a rectangular specimen (plane strain), according to Fig. 13. At the bottom of the specimen it is given uy ¼ 0, tx ¼ 0, tðdÞ ¼ 0, while at the top it is uy ¼ u y , tx ¼ 0, tðdÞ ¼ 0. The remaining boundaries are subject to the conditions t ¼ 0 and tðdÞ ¼ 0. The aim is to demonstrate the capabilities of the damage model. To this end, it suffices to concentrate on isotropic hardening only. Further, as the deformations are homogeneous, no material parameters of terms related to micromorphic curvature tensors are involved. Fig. 14 shows the effect of the damage parameter a1 (cf. Eq. (34)) on the responses of the uniaxial stress s and the damage variable D. Further discussion

¨ about the damage law for the classical case is provided in Lammer and Tsakmakis [10]. 2.2.2. Rectangular specimens with circular hole under tension loading We consider again the boundary value problem of Section 2.1.1, but now with respect to the specimen geometry displayed in Fig. 15 (length l differs from width b). In order to elucidate the capabilities of the micromorphic theory in predicting size effects, four specimen geometries are considered, referred to as specimens 1, 4, 20 and 200 (see Table 1). First, only isotropic hardening is addressed, with material parameters as given in Section 2.2, and r7 ¼ 10 mm2 . The discussion is referred to the stress component Tyy at point ðaÞ (see Fig. 15). It can be recognized from Fig. 16 that softening for large specimens begins earlier than for small ones. Comparison of Fig. 16 ða1 ¼ 0:1Þ with Fig. 17 ða1 ¼ 1:0Þ suggests that the form of the responses is strong dependent on the damage parameter a1. Moreover, Fig. 18 illustrates that maximal values of stresses and maximal global strains depend on the material parameter r7, present in the yield function. Next, we assume the micromorphic model material to exhibit kinematic hardening only, governed by the material parameters r7 ¼ 10 mm2 ;

the remaining material parameters related to kinematical hardening being vanishing. Similar to the case of pure isotropic hardening, Fig. 19 suggests that softening for large specimens begins earlier than for small ones. Fig. 20 confirms that this holds also for the case of combined isotropic and kinematic hardening.

A general framework for micromorphic plasticity has been formulated in Parts I, II, incorporating isotropic and kinematic hardening. The hardening laws are of the Armstrong–Frederick type and the yield function is a generalization of the classical v. Mises yield function. Some properties of the resulting theory, concerning prediction of size effects for small deformations, are reported in Part III. However, no comparison with experimental data is available, so that it is not possible to evaluate the appropriateness of the chosen constitutive functions. This concerns over all the yield function and the isotropic hardening, the latter being unifiedly postulated. Further studies, with reference to experimental results will help to clarify such issues, but this is beyond the scope of the present paper. All the discussions in the three articles make clear that phenomenological micromorphic theories (at least plasticity theories) are very complicated and involve a large number of material parameters. Therefore, it will be useful to clarify in future works, if it is possible to approximate the essential material responses predicted by micromorphic theories by some simpler gradient models, which deal with classical stresses only, and involve a smaller number of material parameters. Also it is of interest to answer the following question. Is the micromorphic model appropriate enough to describe all known size effects to the necessary degree? References [1] P. Grammenoudis, C.
