Abstract

Realistic description of heterogeneous material behavior demands more accurate modeling at multiple scales. Multiscale scheme employing second-order homogenization requires C1 continuity at the macrolevel, while classical continuum is usually kept at the microlevel (C1-C0 homogenization). However, due to C1-C0 transition, consistency of macroscale variables is violated. This research proposes a new second-order homogenization scheme employing C1 continuity at both scales. Discretization is performed by the C1 finite element and Aifantis gradient elasticity theory. A new gradient boundary conditions are derived. The relation between the Aifantis length scale and the RVE size has been found. The new procedure is tested on a benchmark example. After successful development of the C1-C1 multiscale scheme, the next step is an extension to consistent scaling of the microscale strain localization towards a macroscopic fracture.
