Abstract
- In this paper, the constitutive relations of the finite element method are constructed and used for solving two- and three-dimensional problems of the asymmetric theory of elasticity. Different variants of finite elements are considered. The numerical experiments are carried out to evaluate the reliability and computational efficiency of the finite element algorithm based on the comparison between the numerical and analytical solutions, numerical estimation of the convergence and checking of the degree of accuracy, to which the natural boundary conditions are satisfied. The obtained solutions to the two- and three-dimensional problems are interpreted from the viewpoint of their applicability to a design of experiments capable of revealing the facts of couple-stress effects in material under elastic deformation and identification of material constants for the asymmetric theory of elasticity. The capabilities of the finite element algorithm to interpret experimental data and estimate the errors occurring in real experiments have been tested by solving several example problems.
