Abstract

In this paper, the multi-scale computational method for a structure of composite materials with a small periodic configuration under the coupled thermoelasticity condition is presented. The two-scale asymptotic (TSA) expression of the displacement and the increment of temperature for composite materials with a small periodic configuration under the condition of thermoelasticity are briefly shown at first, then the multi-scale finite element algorithms based on TSA are discussed. Finally the numerical results evaluated by the multi-scale computational method are shown. It demonstrates that the basic configuration and the increment of temperature strongly influence the local strains and local stresses inside a basic cell.
