Modeling of effective elastic-plastic properties of layered composites with a periodic structure in the framework of the anisotropic flow theory

The article is devoted to the development of a method for constructing theoretical strain diagrams. The method is based on the use of a model of effective constitutive relations for approximating the deformation diagrams of layered composites obtained using the asymptotic averaging method. To find the elastic constants of the model of a transversally isotropic composite, the method of minimizing the deviation of the approximation deformation diagrams from the diagrams obtained by the asymptotic homogenization (AH) method is used for a series of standard problems of deformation at small deformations. Minimization problems were solved using the Hooke-Jeeves method. The results of numerical simulation by the proposed method for layered composites are presented, which showed good approximation accuracy, which is achieved due to the proposed method for separating the coupled problems of micro- and macroscopic deformation.
