On the correspondence between two- and three-dimensional Eshelby tensors

We consider both three-dimensional (3D) and two-dimensional (2D) Eshelby tensors known also as energy–momentum tensors or chemical potential tensors, which are introduced within the nonlinear elasticity and the resultant nonlinear shell theory, respectively. We demonstrate that 2D Eshelby tensor is introduced earlier directly using 2D constitutive equations of nonlinear shells and can be derived also using the throughthe-thickness procedure applied to a 3D shell-like body.

The aim of this paper is to establish straightforward correspondence between 2D Eshelby tensor and its 3D counterpart. In other words, we are looking for a dependence which is similar to the dependencies between the first Piola-Kirchhoff stress tensor and the stress resultant and moment tensors in the resultant theory of shells [16,45,46].
The paper is organized as follows. In Sect. 2, we briefly recall the basic relations of equilibrium of twophase solids followed from the stationarity of the total energy functional [8,38]. Following [24] in Sect. 3, we introduce 2D Eshelby tensor and other 2D fields used in the nonlinear resultant shell theory. Finally, in Sect. 4 we consider a shell-like solid undergoing phase transformation. In order to find a dependence between 2D and 3D Eshelby tensors, we perform the through-the-thickness integration along the thickness coordinate of the thermodynamic compatibility conditions on the phase interface.

Eshelby tensor and equilibrium conditions of 3D solids undergoing phase transition
Let us consider a three-dimensional solid which occupies in reference and current placement volumes Ω and ω, respectively. The deformation of an elastic solid can be described through the one-to-one mapping Ω → ω r = r(R), (1) where r and R are the position vectors in the current and reference placements, respectively. We assume that in the current placement the solid undergoes martensitic-type phase transitions, so it consists of two phases separated by phase interface γ . Note that γ is a non-material surface, in general. This means that γ propagates across material particles. So for two-phase solids in addition to r, we introduce vector x which specifies the position of γ . Vector x plays a role of additional kinematical descriptor responsible for degrees of freedom related to the phase transition. Within the Lagrangian description instead of x, we introduce vector X such that r(X) = x, so the image of γ under inverse mapping (1) is Γ : r(Γ ) = γ , as shown in Fig. 1. Note that Γ is also non-material surface defined in the reference placement. In what follows, we denote phases with indices "+" and "−". Within the variational approach, we consider the stationarity of the total energy functional on kinematically admissible fields r and X, that is when δr = 0 at ∂Ω d . Here, W is the strain energy function, W = W (F), F = Grad r is the deformation gradient, ρ is the referential mass density, f and t are the vectors of mass and surface forces, respectively, ∂Ω t is a part of the whole boundary ∂Ω on which surface forces t are given. On the rest part, ∂Ω d = ∂Ω\∂Ω t displacements are given: r = r 0 . Hereinafter, we define the Lagrangian Downloaded from mostwiedzy.pl divergence and gradient operators, Div and Grad , as in [62]. For example, in Cartesian coordinates X k with corresponding unit orthogonal base vectors i k , k = 1, 2, 3, Grad and Div are calculated by the formulae where "⊗" and "·" stand for the tensor and scalar products, respectively. From δE = 0, we derive the equilibrium equations the static boundary conditions and the static and thermodynamic compatibility conditions on the coherent phase interface see [8,38] for details. Hereinafter, we assume coherent phase interface, that is, without discontinuities in displacements on Γ Here, P = ∂ W ∂F is the first Piola-Kirchhoff stress tensor, n is the vector of unit outward normal to ∂Ω t . In addition, the double square brackets in (4) and (5)  In (4) 2 , b is the Eshelby tensor defined as follows: where I is the unit tensor and the superscript "T " stands for the transposed tensors. For homogeneous material, we have the conservation law, see, e.g. [47, p. 132], so for any smooth closed surface S ⊂ Ω we get Let us consider quasistatic deformations, that is, when the position vectors depend on time-like parameter t r = r(R, t), X = X(t), but we neglect inertial effects. In this case, it can be shown, see, e.g. [42,64], that the energy rate depends on the quasistatic motion of the phase interface as followṡ where the overdot stands for the derivative with respect to time-like parameter t and V Γ is the normal velocity of the phase interface. Equation (9) means that [[n · bn]] plays a role of a driving force for the phase interface motion. So (9) results in a kinetic equation where F = F(ζ ) is a kinetic function such that F(0) = 0, ζ F(ζ ) ≥ 0, see [1,2,9,10,48] for details. So for quasistatic deformations (10) replaces (4) 2 . Linear form of (10) was used for the analysis of instabilities of two-phase solids in [35,64].

Eshelby tensor and equilibrium conditions of two-phase shells
Following [16,45,46], we consider a shell as a directed material surface which kinematics is described through two kinematically independent surface fields of translations and rotations. In other words, we treat the shell as 2D Cosserat (micropolar) continuum. So in the literature this model is also known as the theory of micropolar shells, see, e.g. [5,21,23] and the reference therein. In the reference placement, the shell is represented by the base surface Σ with the position vector = (θ α ) and the unit normal vector η = η(θ α ), where θ α are surface curvilinear coordinates, α = 1, 2. In the current placement, the shell is represented by the surface σ with the position vector y = y( ) and the proper orthogonal tensor Q = Q( ), as shown in Fig. 2.
For a hyperelastic shell, there exists a surface strain energy function which takes the following form where E and K are the referential surface strain measures defined by the formulae where F S is the surface deformation gradient and the notation T × denotes the vectorial invariant of any second-order tensor T, which was introduced by Gibbs [63]. For example, for a diad we have where"×" is the cross-product, see for details original lectures by Gibbs in [63, p. 275], and more recent books [22,43]. With the vectorial invariant, one can find the axial vector a corresponding to the skew tensor S = I × a = a × I with the use of the formula where ax(. . .) denotes the axial vector associated with the skew tensor (. . .). Here, we have used the crossproduct between second-order tensor and vector, see [63, p. 280]. This operation can be extended for tensors of any order, see [63, p. 281] and [22,43,52]. For example, for diads we have Note that hereinafter we use the same definition of Lagrangian surface gradient Grad S and divergence Div S operators as in [16,24,40].
Similarly to 3D solids undergoing phase transitions, we consider a shell consisting of two phases separated by a phase interface. In the current placement, the phase interface is represented by a smooth curve , as shown in Fig. 2. Using Lagrangian description, we introduce the curve L ⊂ Σ which image under mapping y = y( ) : Σ → σ is , so y(L) = . We introduce the position vector ρ of L as an additional kinematical descriptor related to modelling of phase interface quasistatic motion.
Using the variational approach [24], we consider the stationarity of the total energy functional where g and φ are the surface and boundary forces, respectively. Here, for simplicity we neglect the action of surface and boundary couples. From the variational equation δE S = 0 on admissible fields y (δy ∂Σ d = 0) and ρ, we derive the equilibrium equations the static boundary conditions where T and M are the surface stress resultant and stress couple tensors of the first Piola-Kirchhoff type given by the formulae ν is the surface unit vector externally normal to ∂Σ, such that ν · η = 0, as shown in Fig. 2. In addition, for coherent in rotations phase interface we get the static and thermodynamic compatibility conditions where A = I − η ⊗ η is the 2D unit tensor. Following [24] by a coherent in rotations phase interface, we mean an interface without jumps of translations and rotations. Tensor C is the 2D Eshelby tensor which is full analogue of b. It can be also represented through the surface strain energy and its derivatives Unlike b for C, there is not a relation similar to (7), that is, Div S C = 0, in general. Indeed, let us note that (7) is valid for homogeneous solids. But a shell is in some sense inhomogeneous, as its properties may depend on the curvature, see, e.g. discussion on uniformity and inhomogeneity of shells in [19,20]. Some exceptions are discussed in [41].
On the other hand, as in the 3D case for quasistatic deformations we have thaṫ see [25,26], where V L is the normal velocity of L. Here, we assume that y and Q depend on time-like parameter t, y = y( , t), Q = Q( , t). Equation (18) see [25,26], where the influence of the form of F on the shell deformations was analysed.

The through-the-thickness integration procedure
In previous two sections, we have introduced the Eshelby tensors b and C as entirely independent quantities. Indeed, for shells we applied here the so-called direct approach treating a shell as a 2D elastic continuum [5,21,23]. Within the direct approach, one operates with 2D governing equations without any relation to the 3D nature of a shell, in general. Recently, similar 2D equations were introduced to the new class of thin-walled structures called pantographic lattices, see, e.g. [6,7,18,31,36] and the reference therein. In the literature, various 3D to 2D reduction techniques are known, see, e.g. [17,37,46,51] and the recent review [4]. Among these approaches, the through-the-thickness integration of the 3D equilibrium/motion equations leads to the nonlinear resultant theory of shells. This theory is presented in detail in [16,45,46,55] for finite deformations and in [22,43] for infinitesimal ones. Within this procedure, one derives the 2D equilibrium/motion equation as the exact consequence of 3D equations without any kinematical assumptions, whereas 2D strain measures can be introduced as energetically conjugate to the stress measures.
For example, within the through-the-thickness procedure there is the straightforward correspondence between W and U , and between P and 2D stress measures T and M. In order to introduce this dependence, let us consider a shell-like solid that is a curved thin-walled body. In the reference placement, this solid occupies a region of the following shape Ω = {(θ α , ζ ), (θ 1 , θ 2 ) ∈ Σ, −h − ≤ ζ ≤ h + , where Σ is a given referential base surface, and h = h − + h + is the shell thickness, as shown in Fig. 3. So in the reference placement the position vector has the following form where is the position vector of Σ, η is the unit normal vector to Σ, and ζ is the normal coordinate. In the current configuration, the position vector of the shell is given by where y is the position vector of the shell base surface in the current placement and z is base reference deviation vector [46].
Let us first consider the strain energy functional for the shell-like body. By the strain energy functional, we mean the total energy functional without external loads. For simplicity, we keep the same notations for these functionals. As E and E S describe the stored energy of the same body, we have to conclude that E = E S . So we get that Downloaded from mostwiedzy.pl Two-and three-dimensional Eshelby tensors where μ is the geometrical scale factor given by the formula [46] μ = 1 − 2H ζ + K ζ 2 , H = 1 2 trB and K = det B are the mean and Gaussian curvatures of Σ, respectively, and B = −Grad S η is the curvature tensor of Σ.
Using the identity [43,46] nd A = (A − ζ B) −1 νμdζ ds, we can exactly express the resultant force and the total torque acting on an arbitrary part A of the cross section of the shell-like body In Fig. 4, A is an arbitrary part of the shell-like body cross section with the normal n, L is part of the contour of Σ, L = ∂Σ ∩ A, s and τ are the arc length parameter and unit tangent vector to L, respectively. Obviously, A is a ruled surface with the parametrization X = X(s, ζ ) = ρ(s) + ζ η(s), where ρ is the position vector of L. Following [43,46], we introduce the stress resultant and the surface couple stress tensors With these definitions, (22) and (23)

transform into
Downloaded from mostwiedzy.pl Equations (21) and (24) give the straightforward exact correspondence between defined in the bulk the strain energy W and stress tensor P and the defined on the base surface function U and strain measures T and M.
The first correspondence between b and C follows from (20). Using (9) and (18), we get the following integral correspondence For such cross section as shown in Fig. 4, we have that where τ is the unit tangent vector to L. From this, it follows that n · η = 0, n ζ =0 = ν, and that V Γ ζ =0 = V L = V . In other words, this means that the velocity of the 2D and 1D phase interfaces coincides with each other in this case. As V = V (s) is an arbitrary function from (27), we get This means that integrating through the thickness along normal direction we find the correspondence between C and b which follows form the energy correspondence.
To consider this correspondence in detail, let us assume the plane geometry in the reference placement, that is, the case when B = 0 and μ = 1, n = ν, η = const. Here, we have that So we get that Following [16], we represent z as follows z = QZ, Z = ζ η. This representation corresponds to rigid body rotations of the cross section. More general form of Z was considered in [16,46]. We get the following identities With these formulae, b takes the form Downloaded from mostwiedzy.pl Two-and three-dimensional Eshelby tensors Using the identity Multiplying (30) twice with n, we get Finally, integrating this relation through the thickness and taking into account that we obtain that This relation coincides with the first one given by (28). The case of curved surface Σ can be considered similarly, but it requires more lengthy calculations.

Conclusions
Here, we extended the nonlinear resultant theory of shells to the case of two-phase shells, that is, to the case of thin-walled structures undergoing stress-induced phase transitions. In addition to known 3D to 2D correspondence between the 3D and 2D strain energies W and U , between the stress tensor P and stress resultant T and surface couple stress M tensors, we established new straightforward correspondence between 3D and 2D Eshelby tensors. We show that the 2D Eshelby tensor C can be obtained from its 3D counterpart b using the through-the-thickness integration procedure. Let us note that in the resultant nonlinear shell theory the reduction in the energy to the 2D requires a special attention. Following [16,46], it can be shown that 2D strain energy can be derived from its 3D counterpart only as a certain approximation. So (21) and (24) are exact dependencies of 2D strain energy and stress resultant and surface couple stress tensors on their 3D counterparts. Nevertheless, the 2D form of U given by (11) is some direct resultant approximation of the 3D strain energy expressed by only 2D fields defined on Σ. The same comment should be done for the Eshelby tensors. In other words, the presented correspondence between C and b has similar approximate nature. Moreover, for the derivation of this correspondence we assume that the phase interface has a form of the normal cross section, that is, also an assumption. For many cases of thin-walled films made of shape memory alloys, such assumption can be validated, see, e.g. experimental observations in [12,13,30,44,50], even for complex microstructure of the interface [11,61]. On the other hand, this assumption is not valid for some experimental observation given in [59,60], where the phase interface is almost parallel to the shell base surface. In such cases, further analysis is required.

Another field of application of this correspondence is the theory of fracture of thin-walled structures with the use of 2D analogues of energy release rate relations such as discussed in [41,47,48] and path-independent integrals for plates and shells of specific geometry like cylindrical, spherical, etc., see [14,41,54] for the use of the latter within the plate and shell theories. For example, using 2D formulations based on 2D Eshelby tensor one can perform rapid assessments of the stress concentration for thin-walled structures.
