We propose a nonlinear elasto-plastic model, for which a specific class of hyperbolic elasticity arises as a straight consequence of the yield criterion invariance on the plasticity level. We superimpose this nonlinear elastic (or…
The difference variational bicomplex, which is the natural setting for systems of difference equations, is constructed and used to examine the geometric and algebraic properties of various systems. Exactness of the bicomplex gives a…
A kinetic model for the elasto-plastic dynamics of a flowing jammed material is proposed, which takes the form of a non-local -- Boltzmann-like -- kinetic equation for the stress distribution function. Coarse-graining this equation yields a…
In this paper we extend the previously introduced class of boundary port-Hamiltonian systems to boundary control systems where the variational derivative of the Hamiltonian functional is replaced by a pair of reciprocal differential…
In Mechanics, the theory of standard materials is a well-known application of Convex Analysis. However, the so-called non-associated constitutive laws cannot be cast in the mould of the standard materials. From the mathematical viewpoint, a…
An exact transformation method is introduced that reduces the governing equations of a continuum structure coupled to strong nonlinearities to a low dimensional equation with memory. The method is general and well suited to problems with…
In $\mathbb{C}^2$ with the standard symplectic structure we consider the bidisc $D^2\times D^2$ constructed as the product of two open real discs of radius $1$. We compute explicit values for the first, second and third Ekeland-Hofer…
Amontons' law postulates a monotonic relationship between frictional force and the normal load applied to a sliding contact. This empirical rule, however, fails in systems where internal degrees of freedom - such as structural or electronic…
The notion of a symplectic expansion directly relates the topology of a surface to formal symplectic geometry. We give a method to construct a symplectic expansion by solving a recurrence formula given in terms of the…
As a generalization and extension of our previous paper [Escobar-Ruiz and Azuaje, J. Phys. A: Math. Theor. 57, 105202 (2024)], in this work, the notions of particular integral and particular integrability in classical mechanics are extended…
A multiscale theory of interacting continuum mechanics and thermodynamics of mixtures of fluids, electrodynamics, polarization and magnetization is proposed. The mechanical (reversible) part of the theory is constructed in a purely…
In this article we develop a theory of contact systems with nonholonomic constraints. We obtain the dynamics from Herglotz's variational principle, by restricting the variations so that they satisfy the nonholonomic constraints. We prove…
A formal symplectic structure on RxM is constructed for the unsteady flow of an incompressible viscous fluid on a three dimensional domain M. The evolution equation for the helicity density is expressed via the divergence of the Liouville…
This paper is a fusion of a survey and a research article. We focus on certain rigidity phenomena in function spaces associated to a symplectic manifold. Our starting point is a lower bound obtained in an earlier paper with Zapolsky for the…
Nonadiabatic behavior of metastable systems modeled by anharmonic Hamiltonians is reproduced by the Fokker-Planck and imaginary time Schrodinger equation scheme with subsequent symplectic integration. Example solutions capture ergodicity…
We address semigroup well-posedness for a linear, compressible viscous fluid interacting at its boundary with an elastic plate. We derive the model by linearizing the compressible Navier-Stokes equations about an arbitrary flow state, so…
The aim of this paper is to explain a link between symplectic isotopies of open objects such as balls and flexibility properties of symplectic hypersurfaces. We get connectedness results for spaces of symplectic ellipsoids or maximal…
This article treats the generalisation to brane dynamics of the covariant canonical variational procedure leading to the construction of a conserved bilinear symplectic current in the manner originally developped by Witten, Zuckerman and…
A generalization of Coulomb-Amontons' law of dry friction recently proposed by V. V. Kozlov is considered in the context of rigid body dynamics. Universal requirements for dry friction tensor formulated by V. V. Kozlov are complemented by a…
This paper develops the multisymplectic formulation of nonsmooth elastoplastic phenomena, where the plastic deformation and the associated thermodynamic entropy evolve by jumps.
