BimaterialStripCurvatureRadiusFromTemperature: curvature radius of a bimetallic strip uniformly heated from T0 to T
Description
BimaterialStripCurvatureRadiusFromTemperature
curvature radius
of a bimetallic strip uniformly heated from T0 to T in the absence of external forcesUsage
BimaterialStripCurvatureRadiusFromTemperature(T0, R0, T, m, n, alpha1, alpha2, thickn)
Arguments
R0
1/R0 = Initial curvature of the strip at temperature T0
m
t1/t2, with t1 and t2 their respective thicknesses
n
E1/E2, with E1 and E2 their respective Young’s moduli
alpha1
Coefficient of expansion of element 1
alpha2
Coefficient of expansion of element 2
thickn
t1 + t2 thickness of the strip
