Most three dimensional constitutive relations that have been developed to describe the behavior of bodies are correlated against one dimensional and two dimensional experiments. What is usually lost sight of is the fact that infinity of such three dimensional models may be able to explain these experiments that are lower dimensional. Recently, the notion of maximization of the rate of entropy production has been used to obtain constitutive relations based on the choice of the stored energy and rate...
We extend thresholding methods for numerical realization of mean curvature flow on obstacles to the anisotropic setting where interfacial energy depends on the orientation of the interface. This type of schemes treats the interface implicitly, which supports natural implementation of topology changes, such as merging and splitting, and makes the approach attractive for applications in material science. The main tool in the new scheme are convolution kernels developed in previous studies that approximate...
This contribution deals with the numerical simulation of dislocation dynamics. Dislocations are described by means of the evolution of a family of closed or open smooth curves , . The curves are driven by the normal velocity which is the function of curvature and the position. The evolution law reads as: . The motion law is treated using direct approach numerically solved by two schemes, i. e., backward Euler semi-implicit and semi-discrete method of lines. Numerical stability is improved...
We propose a discontinuous Galerkin method for linear elasticity, based on discontinuous piecewise linear approximation of the displacements. We show optimal order a priori error estimates, uniform in the incompressible limit, and thus locking is avoided. The discontinuous Galerkin method is closely related to the non-conforming Crouzeix–Raviart (CR) element, which in fact is obtained when one of the stabilizing parameters tends to infinity. In the case of the elasticity operator, for which the...

The interaction between dislocation dipolar loops plays an important role in the computation of the dislocation dynamics. The analytical form of the interaction force between two loops derived in the present paper from Kroupa’s formula of the stress field generated by a single dipolar loop allows for faster computation.
Fissato lo spazio di Sobolev come ambiente del problema dinamico per un corpo viscoelastico unidimensionale si dimostra un teorema di unicità per la classe delle funzioni di rilassamento convesse. Si fa inoltre vedere come tale unicità sia strettamente legata allo spazio ambiente considerato.
In questa nota si completa la studio (iniziato in [1]) della caratterizzazione delle funzioni di rilassamento per le quali il problema dinamico della viscoelasticità lineare, con condizioni di spostamento nullo agli estremi, risulta ben posto nello spazio di Sobolev . Precisamente, per un'opportuna classe di sollecitazioni esterne, si dimostra l'esistenza della soluzione, se le funzioni di rilassamento sono positive, convesse ed hanno il modulo di elasticità all'equilibrio strettamente maggiore...
We explicitly introduce and exploit div-curl Young measures to examine optimal design problems governed by a linear state law in divergence form. The cost is allowed to depend explicitly on the gradient of the state. By means of this family of measures, we can formulate a suitable relaxed version of the problem, and, in a subsequent step, put it in a similar form as the original optimal design problem with an appropriate set of designs and generalized state law. Many of the issues involved has been...
