$$
where $_{0}C_{ijrs}$ and $_{t}C_{ijrs}$ are the incremental stress-strain tensors at time t referred to the configurations at times 0 and t, respectively. The derivation of $_{0}C_{ijrs}$ and $_{t}C_{ijrs}$ for various materials is discussed in Section 6.6. We also note that in (6.74) and (6.75) $_{0}S_{ij}$ and $_{t}\tau_{ij}$ are the known second Piola-Kirchhoff and Cauchy stresses at time t; and $_{0}e_{ij}$ , $_{0}\eta_{ij}$ and $_{t}e_{ij}$ , $_{t}\eta_{ij}$ are the linear and nonlinear incremental strains which are referred to the configurations at times 0 and t, respectively.
Let us consider in more detail the steps performed in Table 6.2. The steps in Table 6.3 are performed analogously.
In step 2, we incrementally decompose the stresses and strains, which is allowed because all stresses and strains, including the increments, are referred to the original (same) configuration. Also note that we obtain the incremental Green-Lagrange strain components in Table 6.2 by simply using $_{0}\epsilon_{ij} = ^{t+\Delta t}_{0}\epsilon_{ij} - _{0}^{\prime}\epsilon_{ij}$ and expressing $^{t+\Delta t}_{0}\epsilon_{ij}$ and $_{0}^{\prime}\epsilon_{ij}$ in terms of the displacements, where $^{t+\Delta t}_{i}u_{i} = ^{t}u_{i} + u_{i}$ .
In step 3, we use $\delta^{t + \Delta t}_{0}\epsilon_{ij} = \delta ({}_{0}^{\prime}\epsilon_{ij} + {}_{0}\epsilon_{ij}) = \delta_{0}\epsilon_{ij}$ ; that is, here $\delta_0^\prime \epsilon_{ij} = 0$ because the variation is taken about the configuration at time $t + \Delta t$ . We also bring all known quantities to the right-hand side in the principle of virtual work equation. Note that for a given displacement variation the expression $\int_{0V}{}_{0}^{\prime}S_{ij}\delta_{0}e_{ij}d^{0}V$ is known. So far we have not made any assumption but have merely rewritten the original principle of virtual work equation.
In general, the left-hand side of the principle of virtual work equation given in step 3 is highly nonlinear in the incremental displacements $u_{i}$ . In step 4, we now linearize the expression, and this linearization is achieved in the following manner.
First, we note that the term $\int_{0V} \delta_S \delta_0 \eta_{ij} d^0 V$ is already linear in the incremental displacements; hence, we keep this term without change. The nonlinear effects are due to the term $\int_{0V} S_{ij} \delta_0 \epsilon_{ij} d^0 V$ , which we linearize using a Taylor series expansion,
$$
\begin{array}{l} \int S _ {i j} \delta_ {0} \epsilon_ {i j} d ^ {0} V = \int_ {0 _ {V}} \left( \right.\frac {\partial_ {0} ^ {\prime} S _ {i j}}{\partial_ {0} ^ {\prime} \epsilon_ {r s}} \left. \right| \epsilon_ {r s} + \text { higher order terms } \left) \delta_ {(0} e _ {i j} + _ {0} \eta_ {i j}\left. \right) d ^ {0} V \\ = \int_ {0 _ {V}} \left( \right.\underbrace {\frac {\partial_ {0} ^ {t} S _ {i j}}{\partial_ {0} ^ {t} \epsilon_ {r s} \mid_ {t}}} _ {0 C _ {i j r s}} \left(_ {0} e _ {r s} + \underbrace {_ {0} \eta_ {r s}} _ {\text {Neglect}} + \underbrace {\text {higher order terms}} _ {\text {Neglect}}\right) \delta_ {\left(_ {0} e _ {i j} + \underbrace {_ {0} \eta_ {i j}} _ {\text {Neglect}}\right)} d ^ {0} V \\ \doteq \int C e _ {r s} \delta_ {0} e _ {i j} d ^ {0} V \\ \end{array}
$$
This term is now linear in the incremental displacements because $\delta_0e_{ij}$ is independent of the $u_{i}$ .
Comparing the UL and TL formulations in Tables 6.2 and 6.3, we observe that they are quite analogous and that, in fact, the only theoretical difference between the two formulations lies in the choice of different reference configurations for the kinematic and static variables. Indeed, if in the numerical solution the appropriate constitutive tensors are employed, identical results are obtained (see Section 6.6).
The choice of using either the UL or the TL formulation in a finite element solution depends, in practice, on their relative numerical effectiveness, which in turn depends on the finite element and the constitutive law used. However, one general observation can be made considering Tables 6.2 and 6.3, namely, that the incremental linear strains $_{0}e_{ij}$ in the TL formulation contain an initial displacement effect that leads to a more complex strain-displacement matrix than in the UL formulation.
The relations in (6.74) and (6.75) can be employed to calculate an increment in the displacements, which then is used to evaluate approximations to the displacements, strains, and stresses corresponding to time $t + \Delta t$ . The displacement approximations corresponding to $t + \Delta t$ are obtained simply by adding the calculated increments to the displacements at time t, and the strain approximations are evaluated from the displacements using the available kinematic relations [e.g., relation (6.54) in the TL formulation]. However, the evaluation of the stresses corresponding to time $t + \Delta t$ depends on the specific constitutive relations used and is discussed in detail in Section 6.6.
Assuming that the approximate displacements, strains, and thus stresses have been obtained, we can now check into how much difference there is between the internal virtual work when evaluated with the calculated static and kinematic variables for time $t + \Delta t$ and the external virtual work. Denoting the approximate values with a superscript (1) in anticipation that an iteration will in general be necessary, the error due to linearization is, in the TL formulation,
$$
\text { Error } = ^ {t + \Delta t} \mathcal {R} - \int_ {0 _ {V}} ^ {t + \Delta t} S _ {i j} ^ {(1)} \delta^ {t + \Delta t} \epsilon_ {i j} ^ {(1)} d ^ {0} V \tag {6.76}
$$
and in the UL formulation,
$$
\text { Error } = ^ {t + \Delta t} \mathcal {R} - \int_ {t + \Delta t _ {V} (1)} ^ {t + \Delta t} \tau_ {i j} ^ {(1)} \delta_ {t + \Delta t} e _ {i j} ^ {(1)} d ^ {t + \Delta t} V \tag {6.77}
$$
We should note that the right-hand sides of (6.76) and (6.77) are equivalent to the right-hand sides of (6.74) and (6.75), respectively, but in each case the current configurations with the corresponding stress and strain variables are employed. The correspondence in the UL formulation can be seen directly, but when considering the TL formulation, it must be recognized that $\delta_{0}e_{ij}$ is equivalent to $\delta^{r+\Delta t}_{0}\epsilon_{ij}^{(1)}$ when the same current displacements are used (see Exercise 6.29).
These considerations show that the right-hand sides in (6.74) and (6.75) represent an “out-of-balance virtual work” prior to the calculation of the increments in the displacements, whereas the right-hand sides of (6.76) and (6.77) represent the “out-of-balance virtual work” after the solution, as the result of the linearizations performed. In order to further reduce the “out-of-balance virtual work” we need to perform an iteration in which the above solution step is repeated until the difference between the external virtual work and the internal virtual work is negligible within a certain convergence measure. Using the TL formulation, the equation solved repetitively, for $k = 1, 2, 3, \ldots$ , is
$$
\int C _ {i j r s} ^ {(k - 1)} \Delta_ {0} e _ {r s} ^ {(k)} \delta_ {0} e _ {i j} d ^ {0} V + \int_ {0 _ {V}} ^ {t + \Delta_ {0} t} S _ {i j} ^ {(k - 1)} \delta \Delta_ {0} \eta_ {i j} ^ {(k)} d ^ {0} V = ^ {t + \Delta_ {t}} \mathcal {R} - \int_ {0 _ {V}} ^ {t + \Delta_ {t}} S _ {i j} ^ {(k - 1)} \delta^ {t + \Delta_ {t}} \epsilon_ {i j} ^ {(k - 1)} d ^ {0} V \tag {6.78}
$$
and using the UL formulation, the equation considered is
$$
\begin{array}{l} \int_ {t + \Delta t _ {V} (k - 1)} ^ {t + \Delta t} C _ {i j r s} ^ {(k - 1)} \Delta_ {t + \Delta t} e _ {r s} ^ {(k)} \delta_ {t + \Delta t} e _ {i j} d ^ {t + \Delta t} V + \int_ {t + \Delta t _ {V} (k - 1)} ^ {t + \Delta t} \tau_ {i j} ^ {(k - 1)} \delta \Delta_ {t + \Delta t} \eta_ {i j} ^ {(k)} d ^ {t + \Delta t} V \tag {6.79} \\ = ^ {t + \Delta t} \mathcal {R} - \int_ {t + \Delta t _ {V} (k - 1)} ^ {t + \Delta t} \tau_ {i j} ^ {(k - 1)} \delta_ {t + \Delta t} e _ {i j} ^ {(k - 1)} d ^ {t + \Delta t} V \\ \end{array}
$$
where the case k = 1 corresponds to the relations in (6.74) and (6.75) and the displacements are updated as follows:
$$
{ } ^ { t + \Delta t } u _ { i } ^ { ( k ) } = { } ^ { t + \Delta t } u _ { i } ^ { ( k - 1 ) } + \Delta u _ { i } ^ { ( k ) } ; \quad { } ^ { t + \Delta t } u ^ { ( 0 ) } = { } ^ { t } u \tag {6.80}
$$
The relations in (6.78) to (6.80) correspond to the Newton-Raphson iteration already introduced in Section 6.1. Therefore, the expressions in the integrals are all evaluated corresponding to the currently available displacements and corresponding stresses. Note that in (6.79) the Cauchy stresses, the tangent constitutive relation, and the incremental strains are all referred to the configuration and volume at time $t + \Delta t$ , end of iteration $(k - 1)$ ; that is, the quantities are referred to $^{t+\Delta t}V^{(k-1)}$ , where for k = 1, $^{t+\Delta t}V^{(0)} = ^{t}V$ .
In an overview of this section, we note once more a very important point. Our objective is to solve the equilibrium relation in $(6.13)$ , which can be regarded as an extension of the virtual work principle used in linear analysis. We saw that for a general incremental analysis, certain stress and strain measures can be employed effectively, and this led to a transformation of $(6.13)$ into the updated and total Lagrangian forms. The linearization of these equations then resulted in the relations $(6.78)$ and $(6.79)$ . It is most important to recognize that the solution of either $(6.78)$ or $(6.79)$ corresponds entirely to the solution of the relation in $(6.13)$ . Namely, provided that the appropriate constitutive relations are employed, identical numerical results are obtained using either $(6.78)$ or $(6.79)$ for solution, and, as mentioned earlier, whether to use the TL or the UL formulation depends in practice only on the relative numerical effectiveness of the two solution approaches.
So far we have assumed that the loading is deformation-independent and can be specified prior to the incremental analysis. Thus, we assumed that the expression in (6.14) can be evaluated using
$$
{ } ^ { t + \Delta t } \mathcal { R } = \int _ { 0 _ { V } } { } ^ { t + \Delta t } { } _ { 0 } f _ { i } ^ { B } \delta u _ { i } d ^ { 0 } V + \int _ { 0 _ { S _ { f } } } { } ^ { t + \Delta t } { } _ { 0 } f _ { i } ^ { S } \delta u _ { i } ^ { S } d ^ { 0 } S \tag {6.81}
$$
which is possible only for certain types of loading, such as concentrated loading that does not change direction as a function of the deformations. Using the displacement-based isoparametric elements, another important loading condition that can be modeled with $(6.81)$ is the inertia force loading to be included in dynamic analysis. In this case we have
$$
\int_ {t + \Delta t _ {V}} ^ {t + \Delta t} \rho^ {t + \Delta t} \ddot {u} _ {i} \delta u _ {i} d ^ {t + \Delta t} V = \int_ {0 _ {V}} ^ {0} \rho^ {t + \Delta t} \ddot {u} _ {i} \delta u _ {i} d ^ {0} V \tag {6.82}
$$
and hence, the mass matrix can be evaluated using the initial configuration of the body. The practical consequence is that in a dynamic analysis the mass matrices of isoparametric elements can be calculated prior to the step-by-step solution.
Assume now that the external virtual work is deformation-dependent and cannot be evaluated using (6.81). If in this case the load (or time) step is small enough, the external virtual work can frequently be approximated to sufficient accuracy using the intensity of loading corresponding to time $t + \Delta t$ , but integrating over the volume and area last calculated in the iteration
$$
\int_ {t + \Delta t _ {V}} ^ {t + \Delta t} f _ {i} ^ {B} \delta u _ {i} d ^ {t + \Delta t} V \doteq \int_ {t + \Delta t _ {V} (k - 1)} ^ {t + \Delta t} f _ {i} ^ {B} \delta u _ {i} d ^ {t + \Delta t} V \tag {6.83}
$$
$$
\text { and } \quad \int_ {t + \Delta t _ {S _ {f}}} ^ {t + \Delta t} f _ {i} ^ {S} \delta u _ {i} ^ {S} d ^ {t + \Delta t} S \doteq \int_ {t + \Delta t _ {S _ {f} ^ {(k - 1)}}} ^ {t + \Delta t} f _ {i} ^ {S} \delta u _ {i} ^ {S} d ^ {t + \Delta t} S \tag {6.84}
$$
In order to obtain an iterative scheme that usually converges in fewer iterations, the effect of the unknown incremental displacements in the load terms needs to be included in the stiffness matrix. Depending on the loading considered, a nonsymmetric stiffness matrix is then obtained (see, for example, K. Schweizerhof and E. Ramm [A]), which may require substantially more computations per iteration.
The total and updated Lagrangian formulations are incremental continuum mechanics equations that include all nonlinear effects due to large displacements, large strains, and material nonlinearities; however, in practice, it is often sufficient to account for nonlinear material effects only. In this case, the nonlinear strain components and any updating of surface areas and volumes are neglected in the formulations. Therefore, (6.78) and (6.79) reduce to the same equation of motion, namely,
$$
\int_ {V} C _ {i j r s} ^ {(k - 1)} \Delta e _ {r s} ^ {(k)} \delta e _ {i j} d V = ^ {t + \Delta t} \mathcal {R} - \int_ {V} ^ {t + \Delta t} \sigma_ {i j} ^ {(k - 1)} \delta e _ {i j} d V \tag {6.85}
$$
where $t+\Delta t\sigma_{ij}^{(k-1)}$ is the actual physical stress at time $t+\Delta t$ and end of iteration $(k-1)$ . In this analysis we assume that the volume of the body does not change and therefore $t+\Delta t_{0}S_{ij}\equiv t+\Delta t_{\tau_{ij}}\equiv t+\Delta t_{\sigma_{ij}}$ , and there can be no deformation-dependent loading. Since no kinematic nonlinearities are considered in (6.85), it also follows that if the material is linear elastic, the relation in (6.85) is identical to the principle of virtual work discussed in Section 4.2.1 and would lead to a linear finite element solution.
In the above formulations we assumed that the proposed iteration does converge, so that the incremental analysis can actually be carried out. We discuss this question in detail in Section 8.4. Furthermore, we assumed in the formulation that a static analysis is performed or a dynamic analysis is sought with an implicit time integration scheme (see Section 9.5.2). If a dynamic analysis is to be performed using an explicit time integration method, the governing continuum mechanics equations are, using the TL formulation,
$$
\int_ {0 _ {V}} ^ {t} S _ {i j} \delta_ {0} ^ {t} \epsilon_ {i j} d ^ {0} V = ^ {r} \mathcal {R} \tag {6.86}
$$
using the UL formulation,
$$
\int_ {t _ {V}} ^ {t} \tau_ {i j} \delta_ {i} e _ {i j} d ^ {t} V = ^ {t} \mathcal {R} \tag {6.87}
$$
and using the materially-nonlinear-only analysis,
$$
\int_ {V} ^ {t} \sigma_ {i j} \delta e _ {i j} d V = ^ {t} \mathcal {R} \tag {6.88}
$$
where the stress and strain tensors are as defined previously and equilibrium is considered at time t. In these analyses the external virtual work must include the inertia forces corresponding to time t, and the incremental solution corresponds to a marching-forward algorithm without equilibrium iterations. For this reason, deformation-dependent loading can be directly included by simply updating the load intensity and using the new geometry in the evaluation of $\mathcal{R}$ . The details of the actual step-by-step solution are discussed in Section 9.5.1.
