Essay

The research is devoted to the construction of asymptotic models and the development of mathematical methods that make it possible to correctly describe composites of various structures and the physical processes occurring in them, including in the regions of limiting values of their physical and geometric parameters. The following asymptotic models are constructed, mathematically described and physically substantiated in the scientific work: three-phase models of fibrous composites with circular and square inclusions; improved three-phase model; models of lubrication approach; model of two dimensional composite hexagonal structures; models of two-phase fibrous composites for inclusions of various shapes and “inclusion – matrix” contact conditions; models of composites with a thin interlayer at the phase boundary; two-phase models of composites; continuum models of a 1D discrete medium; continuum model with chaotic behaviour. The areas of applicability of the obtained asymptotic models are determined, asymptotic and numeric estimates of their accuracy are given, and a qualitative and quantitative analysis of the reliability of the results is carried out. The problems of determining the effective thermal conductivity of a composite material with periodic cylindrical inclusions of a circular and square cross-section are analysed. Defining mathematical relationships are derived on the basis of a three-phase composite model. The analytical expressions for the effective coefficients are obtained in the zero-order approximation and the corrections in the first-order approximation by the boundary shape perturbation method. This correction allows taking into account the geometry of inclusions, not just their volume fraction. The possibilities of generalizing the three-phase composite model are discussed. The obtained solution with Padé approximants fundamentally expands the applicability limits of the model. A modified three-phase composite model gives reliable results in the whole area of change of both composite parameters – geometric and physical. Solutions for densely packed, high-contrast fibre composites with different structure and shape of inclusions are obtained based on the lubrication approach. The solution of the problem of natural vibrations of a rectangular membrane rigidly clamped along the contour, which is a composite structure with periodically arranged in a hexagonal lattice of circular inclusions, is obtained. The apparatus of asymptotically equivalent functions is used to study the limit states of composite structures. Composite material with periodically distributed cylindrical inclusions of square cross-section is investigated, and analytical interpolation formula of asymptotic expansions for the effective thermal conductivity is obtained. Employing the non-smooth argument substitution for description of local and discretely varying properties of the inhomogeneous structures and using the method of asymptotically equivalent functions, models are constructed, and asymptotic representations are obtained for fibrous composites of various structures. Different conditions of “matrix – inclusion” contact in composite structures are investigated and mathematically described. Asymptotic approximations in models of two-phase fiber composites are analysed; the concept of physical equivalence of composite structures is defined and relations for their effective parameters are given. The asymptotic expressions of the effective parameters of composites of different structures are classified – when the contact conditions at the interface of the composite phases change. Higher approximations of the Maxwell formula are constructed based on the two-phase composite model and alternating Schwarz method. Generalizing relations for the Maxwell formula in the case of circular inclusions are constructed using the Schwarz – Padé expansion. Questions of higher order asymptotic homogenization for dynamic problems are investigated. The solution of the periodic problem of the theory of elasticity for two-phase layered composite massif problem is obtained by application of the technique of non-symmetrical saw-tooth argument transformation method. The non-smooth temporal transformation is applied to construct a periodic solutions of a weakly non-linear system under the parametric impulsive excitation. The various continuum models of a 1D discrete media are considered: classical, intermediate, quasi-continuum, and improved quasi-continuum models. The impact of symmetry change of asymptotic wave behaviour during the transition from discrete to continuous media is analysed for the Lagrange lattice. Continualization procedure for Verhulst-like ordinary differential equations based on Padé approximants is considered. The presence of chaos in a continuous system is proven correctly by calculation the Lyapunov exponents and the Lyapunov dimensions.
