Regularity of solutions in plasticity. II: Plates

Jarosław L. Bojarski (2004)

Applicationes Mathematicae

Similarity:

The aim of this paper is to study the problem of regularity of displacement solutions in Hencky plasticity. We consider a plate made of a non-homogeneous material whose elastic-plastic properties change discontinuously. We prove that the displacement solutions belong to the space W 2 , 1 ( Ω ) if the stress solution is continuous and belongs to the interior of the set of admissible stresses, at each point. The part of the functional which describes the work of boundary forces is relaxed. ...

Gradient theory for plasticity via homogenization of discrete dislocations

Adriana Garroni, Giovanni Leoni, Marcello Ponsiglione (2010)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We deduce a macroscopic strain gradient theory for plasticity from a model of discrete dislocations. We restrict our analysis to the case of a cylindrical symmetry for the crystal under study, so that the mathematical formulation will involve a two-dimensional variational problem. The dislocations are introduced as point topological defects of the strain fields, for which we compute the elastic energy stored outside the so-called core region. We show that the Γ -limit of this energy (suitably...

A geometrically nonlinear analysis of laminated composite plates using a shear deformation theory

Giacinto Porco, Giuseppe Spadea, Raffaele Zinno (1989)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti

Similarity:

A shear deformation theory is developed to analyse the geometrically nonlinear behaviour of layered composite plates under transverse loads. The theory accounts for the transverse shear (as in the Reissner Mindlin plate theory) and large rotations (in the sense of the von Karman theory) suitable for simulating the behaviour of moderately thick plates. Square and rectangular plates are considered: the numerical results are obtained by a finite element computational procedure and are given...

In this Note II we continue the analysis of the phenomenon of mechanical twinning that we began in a preceding Note I ( 1 ) . Furthermore, we point out some fundamental properties useful in the study of growth twins, for which a fully comprehensive thermoelastic theory is not yet available.

Generalised functions of bounded deformation

Gianni Dal Maso (2013)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We introduce the space G B D of generalized functions of bounded deformation and study the structure properties of these functions: the rectiability and the slicing properties of their jump sets, and the existence of their approximate symmetric gradients. We conclude by proving a compactness results for G B D , which leads to a compactness result for the space G S B D of generalized special functions of bounded deformation. The latter is connected to the existence of solutions to a weak formulation...

Regularity of Lipschitz free boundaries for the thin one-phase problem

Daniela De Silva, Ovidiu Savin (2015)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We study regularity properties of the free boundary for the thin one-phase problem which consists of minimizing the energy functional E ( u , Ω ) = Ω | u | 2 d X + n ( { u > 0 } { x n + 1 = 0 } ) , Ω n + 1 , among all functions u 0 which are fixed on Ω .

Characterization of the limit load in the case of an unbounded elastic convex

Adnene Elyacoubi, Taieb Hadhri (2005)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

Similarity:

In this work we consider a solid body Ω 3 constituted by a nonhomogeneous elastoplastic material, submitted to a density of body forces λ f and a density of forces λ g acting on the boundary where the real λ is the loading parameter. The problem is to determine, in the case of an unbounded convex of elasticity, the Limit load denoted by λ ¯ beyond which there is a break of the structure. The case of a bounded convex of elasticity is done in [El-Fekih and Hadhri, RAIRO: Modél. Math. Anal. Numér....

An Artificial Viscosity Approach to Quasistatic Crack Growth

Rodica Toader, Chiara Zanini (2009)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

Similarity:

We introduce a new model of irreversible quasistatic crack growth in which the evolution of cracks is the limit of a suitably modified ϵ -gradient flow of the energy functional, as the "viscosity" parameter ϵ tends to zero.

A continuum X such that C ( X ) is not continuously homogeneous

Alejandro Illanes (2016)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

A metric continuum X is said to be continuously homogeneous provided that for every two points p , q X there exists a continuous surjective function f : X X such that f ( p ) = q . Answering a question by W.J. Charatonik and Z. Garncarek, in this paper we show a continuum X such that the hyperspace of subcontinua of X , C ( X ) , is not continuously homogeneous.

Pointwise regularity associated with function spaces and multifractal analysis

Stéphane Jaffard (2006)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

The purpose of multifractal analysis of functions is to determine the Hausdorff dimensions of the sets of points where a function (or a distribution) f has a given pointwise regularity exponent H. This notion has many variants depending on the global hypotheses made on f; if f locally belongs to a Banach space E, then a family of pointwise regularity spaces C E α ( x ) are constructed, leading to a notion of pointwise regularity with respect to E; the case E = L corresponds to the usual Hölder regularity,...

Global regularity for the 3D MHD system with damping

Zujin Zhang, Xian Yang (2016)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

We study the Cauchy problem for the 3D MHD system with damping terms ε | u | α - 1 u and δ | b | β - 1 b (ε, δ > 0 and α, β ≥ 1), and show that the strong solution exists globally for any α, β > 3. This improves the previous results significantly.

Zhuan Ye (2015)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

This paper is dedicated to a regularity criterion for the 2D MHD equations and viscoelastic equations. We prove that if the magnetic field B, respectively the local deformation gradient F, satisfies B , F L q ( 0 , T ; L p ( ² ) ) for 1/p + 1/q = 1 and 2 < p ≤ ∞, then the corresponding local solution can be extended beyond time T.

On a bifurcation problem arising in cholesteric liquid crystal theory

Carlo Greco (2017)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

In a cholesteric liquid crystal the director field n ( x , y , z ) tends to form a right-angle helicoid around a twist axis in order to minimize the internal energy; however, a fixed alignment of the director field at the boundary (strong anchoring) can give rise to distorted configurations of the director field, as oblique helicoid, in order to save energy. The transition to this distorted configurations depend on the boundary conditions and on the geometry of the liquid crystal, and it is known...

A regularity theory for scalar local minimizers of splitting-type variational integrals

Michael Bildhauer, Martin Fuchs, Xiao Zhong (2007)

Annali della Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa - Classe di Scienze

Similarity:

Starting from Giaquinta’s counterexample [12] we introduce the class of splitting functionals being of ( p , q ) -growth with exponents p q &lt; and show for the scalar case that locally bounded local minimizers are of class C 1 , μ . Note that to our knowledge the only C 1 , μ -results without imposing a relation between p and q concern the case of two independent variables as it is outlined in Marcellini’s paper [15], Theorem A, and later on in the work of Fusco and Sbordone [10], Theorem 4.2.

On the ψ₂-behaviour of linear functionals on isotropic convex bodies

G. Paouris (2005)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

The slicing problem can be reduced to the study of isotropic convex bodies K with d i a m ( K ) c n L K , where L K is the isotropic constant. We study the ψ₂-behaviour of linear functionals on this class of bodies. It is proved that | | · , θ | | ψ C L K for all θ in a subset U of S n - 1 with measure σ(U) ≥ 1 - exp(-c√n). However, there exist isotropic convex bodies K with uniformly bounded geometric distance from the Euclidean ball, such that m a x θ S n - 1 | | · , θ | | ψ c n L K . In a different direction, we show that good average ψ₂-behaviour of linear functionals...

Sobolev regularity via the convergence rate of convolutions and Jensen’s inequality

Mark A. Peletier, Robert Planqué, Matthias Röger (2007)

Annali della Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa - Classe di Scienze

Similarity:

We derive a new criterion for a real-valued function u to be in the Sobolev space W 1 , 2 ( n ) . This criterion consists of comparing the value of a functional f ( u ) with the values of the same functional applied to convolutions of u with a Dirac sequence. The difference of these values converges to zero as the convolutions approach u , and we prove that the rate of convergence to zero is connected to regularity: u W 1 , 2 if and only if the convergence is sufficiently fast. We finally apply our criterium to...
