On periodic homogenization in perfect elasto-plasticity

Gilles A. Francfort, Alessandro Giacomini (2014)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

The limit behavior of a periodic assembly of a finite number of elasto-plastic phases is investigated as the period becomes vanishingly small. A limit quasi-static evolution is derived through two-scale convergence techniques. It can be thermodynamically viewed as an elasto-plastic model, albeit with an infinite number of internal variables.

On quasistatic inelastic models of gradient type with convex composite constitutive equations

Krzysztof Chełmiński (2003)

Open Mathematics

This article defines and presents the mathematical analysis of a new class of models from the theory of inelastic deformations of metals. This new class, containing so called convex composite models, enlarges the class containing monotone models of gradient type defined in [1]. This paper starts to establish the existence theory for models from this new class; we restrict our investigations to the coercive and linear self-controlling case.
