In this manuscript two $BMO$ estimates are obtained, one for Linear Elasticity and one for Nonlinear Elasticity. It is first shown that the $BMO$-seminorm of the gradient of a vector-valued mapping is bounded above by a constant times the…

The equations of stress equilibrium and strain compatibility/incompatibility are discussed for fields with point singularities in a planar domain. The sufficiency (or insufficiency) of the smooth maps, obtained by restricting the singular…
When describing elastic deformations of a body sometimes it is worth to take in account elastic spatial dispersion. If spatial dispersion is weak, as usually happens, then it can be reduced to dependence of thermodynamic potential on strain…
The pure traction problem of elasticity appears frequently in engineering applications, and its complexity stems from the fact that its solution is unique only up to (infinitesimal) rigid body motions. When finite elements are employed to…

We consider the uniqueness of equilibrium states for dynamical systems that satisfy certain weak, non-uniform versions of specification, expansivity, and the Bowen property at a fixed scale. Following Climenhaga-Thompson's approach which…
The Neumann problem of linear elasticity is singular with a kernel formed by the rigid motions of the body. There are several tricks that are commonly used to obtain a non-singular linear system. However, they often cause reduced accuracy…
The dependence of the elastic tensor on the equilibrium stress is investigated theoretically. Using ideas from finite-elasticity, it is first shown that both the equilibrium stress and elastic tensor are given uniquely in terms of the…
