In a companion paper, equations for partially molten media were derived using two-scale homogenization theory. One advantage of homogenization is that material properties, such as permeability and viscosity, readily emerge. A caveat is that…
The purpose of this paper is to provide a large class of initial data which generates global smooth solution of the 3-D inhomogeneous incompressible Navier-Stokes system in the whole space~$\R^3$. This class of data is based on functions…
By using dimension reduction and homogenization techniques, we study the steady flow of an incompresible viscoplastic Bingham fluid in a thin porous medium. A main feature of our study is the dependence of the yield stress of the Bingham…
We investigate quasistatic evolution in finite plasticity under the assumption that the plastic strain is compatible. This assumption is well-suited to describe the special case of dislocation-free plasticity and entails that the plastic…

The Cosserat continuum is used in this paper to regularize the ill-posed governing equations of the Cauchy/Maxwell continuum. Most available constitutive models adopt yield and plastic potential surfaces with a circular deviatoric section.…
We consider a thin heterogeneous layer consisted of the thin beams (of radius $r$) and we study the limit behaviour of this problem as the periodicity $\varepsilon$, the thickness $\delta$ and the radius $r$ of the beams tend to zero. The…
We consider a nonlinear drift-diffusion system for multiple charged species in a porous medium in 2D and 3D with periodic microstructure. The system consists of a transport equation for the concentration of the species and Poisson's…
We consider the energetic description of a visco-plastic evolution and derive an existence result. The energies are convex, but not necessarily quadratic. Our model is a strain gradient model in which the curl of the plastic strain…
When an amorphous solid is deformed homogeneously, the response exhibits heterogeneous plastic instabilities with localized cooperative rearrangement of cluster of particles. The heterogeneous behavior plays an important role in deciding…
An algorithm is devised for solving minimization problems with equality constraints. The algorithm uses first-order derivatives of both the objective function and the constraints. The step is computed as a sum between a steepest-descent…
