Moire patterns result from setting a 2D material such as graphene on another 2D material with a small twist angle or from the lattice mismatch of 2D heterostructures. We present a continuum model for the elastic energy of these bilayer…
Plasticity is governed by the evolution of, in general anisotropic, systems of dislocations. We seek to faithfully represent this evolution in terms of density-like variables which average over the discrete dislocation microstructure.…

Continuum models of dislocation plasticity require constitutive closure assumptions, e.g., by relating details of the dislocation microstructure to energy densities. Currently, there is no systematic way for deriving or extracting such…
Dislocation dynamic is a typically gradient flow problem, and most of work solves it just as ODE, which means that the interacting energy of dislocations is ignored. We take the interaction energy into account and use it to introduce new…
