Harmonic vibrations of nanosized magnetoelectric bodies with coupled surface and interphase effects: Mathematical models and finite element approaches

The harmonic problems for piezomagnetoelectric nanosized bodies with taking into account the coupled damping and surface effects are considered on the base of the generalized Gurtin-Murdoch model. In the development of previous investigations, the coupled mechanical, electric and magnetic surface effects with surface inertial terms are introduced into the model. For a homogeneous model, the composite material is considered as homogeneous with the suitable effective material properties. The weak or generalized formulation of the steady-state oscillation problem is given together with the suitable formulation of the modal problem. For numerical solution of these problems, the finite element approximations, leading to a symmetric structure of finite element matrices, are present. The procedures of homogenization of piezomagnetoelectric nanostructured composite materials with piezoelectric and piezomagnetic phases are described on the base of the methods of effective moduli and finite elements.
