Uniformly Valid Multiple Spatial-Temporal Scale Modeling for Wave Propagation in Heterogeneous Media

Abstract: A novel dispersive model for wave propagation in heterogeneous media is developed. Themethod is based on a higher-order mathematical homogenization theory with multiple spatial and temporalscales. By this approach a fast spatial scale and a series of slow temporal scales are introduced to account forrapid spatial fluctuations of material properties as well as for the long-term behavior of the homogenizedsolution. The problem of secularity arising from the classical multiple spatial scale homogenization theoryfor wave propagation problems is resolved, giving rise to uniformly valid dispersive model. The proposeddispersive model is solved analytically and its solution has be found to be in good agreement with thenumerical solution of the source problem in a heterogeneous medium.

1. Introduction When a wavelength of a traveling signal in a heterogeneous medium is comparable tothe characteristic length of the microstructure, successive reflection and refraction of thewaves between the interfaces of the material lead to significant dispersion effects (see forexample [1][2][3]). The interest on the subject matter stems from the fact that the phenom-enon of dispersion cannot be captured by the classical homogenization theory.

The use of multiple-scale expansions as a systematic tool of homogenization for prob-lems other than elastodynamics can be traced to Sanchez-Palencia [4], Benssousan, Lionsand Papanicoulau [5], and Bakhvalov and Panasenko [6]. The role of higher order terms inthe asymptotic expansion has been investigated in statics by Gambin and Kroner [7], andBoutin [8]. In elastodynamics, Boutin and Auriault [9] demonstrated that the terms of ahigher order successively introduce effects of polarization, dispersion and attenuation.

For wave propagation in heterogeneous media, a single-frequency time dependence istypically assumed [10]. Notable exceptions are the recent articles of Fish and Chen[11][12], which investigated the initial-boundary value problem with rapidly varying coef-ficients. In [11] it has been shown that while higher-order multiple scale expansion inspace is capable of capturing the dispersion effect when the temporal scale of observationis small, it introduces secular terms which grow unbounded with time. In [12], a slow tem-poral scale was introduced to eliminated the secular terms up to the second order and tocapture the long-term behavior of the homogenized solution.

In an attempt to develop a uniformly valid dispersive model up to an arbitrary order, weextend the theory developed in [12] to fast spatial and a series of slow temporal scales.The fast spatial scale is designated to account for rapid spatial fluctuations of materialproperties and a series of slow temporal scales are aimed at capturing the long-term evolu-tion of the homogenization solutions. This results in a dispersive uniformly valid model,solution of which is obtained analytically and subsequently validated against the numeri-cal solution of the source problem in a heterogeneous medium.

2. Problem Statement

We consider wave propagation normal to layers of an array of elastic bilaminates in a

periodic arrangement with as a characteristic length as shown in Figure 1. The govern-ing elastodynamics equation of is given by

(1)

with appropriate boundary and initial conditions

, (2)

where denotes the displacement field; and the mass density and

elastic modulus, respectively; and denote the differentiation with respect to x

and time respectively; and in (1) denotes a rapid spatial variation of materialproperties.

The goal is to establish an effective homogeneous model in which local fluctuations intro-duced by material heterogeneity do not appear explicitly and the response of a heteroge-neous medium can be approximated by the response of the effective homogeneousmedium. This is facilitated by the method of multiple scale asymptotic expansion in spaceand time.

3. Asymptotic Analysis with Multiple Spatial and Temporal Scales

Under the premise that the macro domain is much larger than the unit cell

domain , i.e. , it is convenient to introduce a microscopicspatial length variable y [9][16] such that

(3)

where , and c are the macroscopic wavelength, the circular frequency, the wavenumber and the phase velocity of the macroscopic wave, respectively. In addition to thisfast spatial variable, we introduce multiple time scales

where is the usual time coordinate and , k > 0 are various slow time scales. Since the

response quantities u and depend on x, , , , and , a multiple-scale

asymptotic expansion is employed to approximate the displacement and stress fields

,

(5)

Homogenization process consists of inserting the asymptotic expansions (5) into thegoverning equation (1), identifying the terms with the equal power of , and then solvingthe resulting problems.

Following the aforementioned procedure and expressing the spatial and temporal deriv-atives in terms of the fast and slow space-time coordinates

we obtain a series of equations in ascending power of starting with .

The general solution of (8) is

multiple temporal scales. To ensure periodicity of over the unit cell domain

in the stretched coordinate system y, must vanish, implying that the leading-order dis-

placement depends only on the macroscale

to an initial disturbance in the displacement field. At , the displacement field isdetermined by the equation of motion (19) and the following initial and boundary condi-tions

ICs: , (56)

BCs: , (57)

The calculation of is obtained by solving the equation of motion

(27). The initial and boundary conditions applied to must be such that the global field

meets macroscopic initial conditions and conditions imposed on the boundary:

Taking into account (56) and (57), the initial and boundary conditions for become

ICs: ,

BCs: ,

Similarly, the macroscopic field is determined from the equation

of motion (34), with the initial and boundary conditions for such that the global

field should satisfy the macroscopic initial and boundary conditions.

With this in mind, we obtain the initial and boundary conditions for different order equa-tions of motion:

4. Solution of Macroscopic Equations We start with the zero-order equation of motion (19), the solution of which can be soughtby means of separation of variables in the form

(61)

Substituting the above equation into (19) and dividing by the product yields

(62)

where is the separation constant and

(63)

The resulting differential equations and corresponding solutions are

, (64)

(65)

(66)

where and are constants of integration; and are

undetermined functions.

Substituting (61), (65) and (66) into (59) gives

, (67)

The second equation in (67) yields

, (68)

Due to linearity of the differential equation, the total solution consists of the sum of indi-vidual solutions. Hence, we may write

which can be shown to satisfy the boundary conditions. Inserting (69) into the secondorder macroscopic equation of motion (34) yields

(70)

The right-hand-side in (70) is also a solution to the corresponding homogeneous equa-tion, and therefore, it generates secular terms. In order to eliminate secular terms and toavoid unbounded resonance of , the source term must vanish, i.e.

, (71)

Let

(72)

Then (71) can be written as

Differentiating the first equation in (73) and inserting the second equation into the result-ing equation leads to

(79)

Since the source term of macroscopic equation of motion has been set to zero andconsidering the initial and boundary conditions described in Section 3.7, we deduce

Again, the right-hand-side term in the above equation is the solution of the correspond-ing homogeneous equation and thus will generate secular terms. In order to eliminate sec-ularity arising from , we set

Equation (82) can be written as

The general solutions to the above equations are

(85)

(86)

Substituting (85) and (86) into (79) gives

Since the source term of macroscopic equation of motion vanishes and consider-ing the initial and boundary conditions prescribed in Section 3.7, we conclude that

5. Numerical Results To assess the accuracy of the proposed formulation, we construct a reference solution byutilizing a very fine finite element mesh to discretize the problem domain. We consider thefollowing initial disturbance in displacements:

where and is the Heaviside step function; , and are the magni-

tude, the location of the maximum value and the half width of the initial pulse. Substitut-ing the initial disturbance into (94) and integrating analytically, we get

The material properties considered are: GPa, GPa, Kg/

m3, Kg/m3, and volume fraction . The dimension of the macro-

domain and that of the unit cell are set as m and m, respectively. The

homogenized material properties are calculated as GPa, Kg/m3

and N. In this case, and the ratio of the impedance of the

Evolution of displacements of the point ( m) is plotted in figures 2-4 for three

cases corresponding to m, m and m, respectively. In other

words, the ratios between the pulse width and the unit cell dimension are 8, 5 and3, respectively. Each of the figures 2-4 depicts four graphs corresponding to the finite ele-ment solution of the source problem, the analytical nondispersive solution , the

dispersive solution up to the second order and the dispersive solution up to the

Figure 3: Displacements at for the initial half pulse width

The phenomenon of dispersion can be clearly observed in Figures 2-4. Figure 2 corre-sponds to rather low frequency case, where the pulse almost maintains its initial shapeexcept for some minor wiggles at the wavefront. In this case, the leading-order homogeni-zation can give a reasonable approximation to the response of a heterogeneous medium.However, when the pulse width of the initial disturbance is comparable to the dimensionof the unit cell and the observation time is large, which are the cases shown in Figures 3and 4, the wave becomes strongly dispersive and the leading-order homogenization errsbadly. It can be readily observed that the dispersive solution provides a good

approximation to the response of the heterogeneous media even as the initial pulse widthis only 3 times of the unit cell dimension.

6. Concluding Remarks Mathematical homogenization theory with multiple spatial and temporal scales havebeen investigated. This work is motivated by our recent studies [11][12] which suggestedthat in absence of multiple time scaling, higher order mathematical homogenizationmethod gives rise to secular terms which grow unbounded with time. In attempt todevelop a uniformly valid dispersive model up to an arbitrary order we extend the theorydeveloped in [12] to fast spatial scale and a series of slow temporal scales.

In our future work we will focus on the following two issues: (i) generalization to themultidimensional case, and (ii) a finite element implementation.
