Hypotheses and model
Applying a temperature field
In general, the structure’s temperature field is considered as the input, causing a thermal expansion of the studied pieces. If the structure is bridled this may cause a non-zero stress field.
Sequential couplings
Most of these couplings are sequential (chaining) where the temperature field on the structure under study is not meant to be changed by its mechanical behavior.
