This work develops a dynamic homogenization approach for metamaterials. It finds an approximate macroscopic homogenized equation with constant coefficients posed in space and time; however, the resulting homogenized equation is higher order…
We investigate the high viscosity limit (also called inertial limit) of the barotropic compressible Navier-Stokes equations supplemented with initial data which are perturbations of a stable constant solution. In the case of constant…

We prove the existence of minimisers for a family of models related to the single-slip-to-single-plane relaxation of single-crystal, strain-gradient elastoplasticity with $L^p$-hardening penalty. In these relaxed models, where only one…
In this paper we study the vanishing viscosity limit for the inhomogeneous incompressible Navier-Stokes equations on bounded domains with no-slip boundary condition in two or three space dimensions. We show that, under suitable assumptions…
Conventional discrete-to-continuum approaches have seen their limitation in describing the collective behaviour of the multi-polar configurations of dislocations, which are widely observed in crystalline materials. The reason is that…
