However, singularities persist for anti-plane shear (mode-III fracture) under far-field loading, even when Steigmann-Ogden surface elasticity is incorporated. This work is motivated by obtaining a model of brittle fracture capable of predicting bounded stresses and strains for all modes of loading. We formulate an exact general theory of a three-dimensional solid containing a boundary surface with strain-gradient surface elasticity. For planar reference surfaces parameterized by flat coordinates, the form of surface elasticity reduces to that introduced by Hilgers and Pipkin, and when the surface energy is independent of the surface covariant derivative of the stretching, the theory reduces to that of Steigmann and Ogden. We discuss material symmetry using Murdoch and Cohen’s extension of Noll’s theory. We present a model small-strain surface energy that incorporates resistance to geodesic distortion, satisfies strong ellipticity, and requires the same material constants found in the Steigmann-Ogden theory. Finally, we derive and apply the linearized theory to mode-III fracture in an infinite plate under far-field loading. We prove that there always exists a unique classical solution to the governing integro-differential equation, and in contrast to using Steigmann-Ogden surface elasticity, our model is consistent with the linearization assumption in predicting finite stresses and strains at the crack tips.</p>","PeriodicalId":624,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Elasticity","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141503946","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The influence of microstructural features on the macroscopic stiffness tensors is demonstrated by comparing the fourth-order, fifth-order and sixth-order stiffness tensors obtained from macro-scale symmetry considerations to the stiffness tensors deduced from homogenizing the elastic response of the granular microstructure. Special attention is paid to systematically relating the particle properties to the probability density function describing their directional distribution, which allows to explicitly connect the level of anisotropy of the particle assembly to local variations in particle stiffness and morphology. The applicability of the multi-scale framework is exemplified by computing the stiffness tensors for various anisotropic granular media composed of equal-sized spheres. The number of independent coefficients of the homogenized stiffness tensors appears to be determined by the number of independent microstructural parameters, which is equal to, or less than, the number of independent stiffness coefficients following from macro-scale symmetry considerations.
