A theoretical and computational investigation is carried out of a dissipative model of rate-independent strain-gradient plasticity and its regularization. It is shown that the flow relation, when expressed in terms of the Cauchy stress, is…
As an extension to strain-gradient models of size-dependent plastic behaviour, this work proposes a model for a stress-gradient theory. The model is distinguished from earlier works on the topic by its being embedded in a thermodynamically…
Max-stable processes are natural models for spatial extremes because they provide suitable asymptotic approximations to the distribution of maxima of random fields. In the recent past, several parametric families of stationary max-stable…
We show that finite element discretizations of incompressible flow problems can be designed to ensure preservation/dissipation of kinetic energy not only globally but also locally. In the context of equal-order (piecewise-linear)…
