We discuss several issues regarding material homogeneity and strain compatibility for materially uniform thin elastic shells from the viewpoint of a 3-dimensional theory, with small thickness, as well as a 2-dimensional Cosserat theory. A…
In classical elasticity theory the stress-field of a dislocation is characterized by a $1/r$-type singularity. When such a dislocation is considered together with an Allen-Cahn-type phase-field description for microstructure evolution this…
Fatigue simulation requires accurate modeling of unloading and reloading. However, classical ductile damage models treat deformations after complete failure as irrecoverable -- which leads to unphysical behavior during unloading. This…
Uniqueness of solutions in the linear theory of non-singular dislocations, studied as a special case of plasticity theory, is examined. The status of the classical, singular Volterra dislocation problem as a limit of plasticity problems is…
We consider a static theory of dislocations with moment stress in an anisotropic or isotropic elastoplastical material as a T(3)-gauge theory. We obtain Yang-Mills type field equations which express the force and the moment equilibrium.…
Integral expressions are determined for the elastic displacement and stress fields due to stationary or moving dislocation loops in finite samples. These general expressions are valid for anisotropic media as well. Specifically for the…
We propose a protocol to model accurately the electromechanical behavior of dielectric elastomer membranes using experimental data of stress-stretch and voltage-stretch tests. We show how the relationship between electric displacement and…
Strain fields, dislocations and defects may be used to control electronic properties of graphene. By using advanced imaging techniques with high-resolution transmission electron microscopes, we have measured the strain and rotation fields…
We investigate the depinning transition occurring in dislocation assemblies. In particular, we consider the cases of regularly spaced pileups and low angle grain boundaries interacting with a disordered stress landscape provided by solute…
Strain and rotation fields of dislocations in monolayer graphene have been mapped in a recent experiment. These fields are finite everywhere and differ from those given by linear elasticity which does not consider rotation explicitly and…
A novel, concurrent multiscale approach to meso/macroscale plasticity is demonstrated. It utilizes a carefully designed coupling of a partial differential equation (pde) based theory of dislocation mediated crystal plasticity with…
We show that a flat two dimensional network of connected vertices, when stretched, may deform plastically by producing `pleats'; system spanning linear structures with width comparable to the lattice spacing, where the network overlaps on…
We consider a discrete model of planar elasticity where the particles, in the reference configuration, sit on a regular triangular lattice and interact through nearest neighbor pairwise potentials, with bonds modeled as linearized elastic…
Under the application of a force, a material will deform and, hence, the crystal lattice will experience strain. This induced strain will alter the electronic properties of the material. In particular, strain in graphene generates an…
The phase-field crystal model in its amplitude equation approximation is shown to provide an accurate description of the deformation field in defected crystalline structures, as well as of dislocation motion. We analyze in detail the…
We formulate a variational model for a geometrically necessary screw dislocation in an anti-plane lattice model at zero temperature. Invariance of the energy functional under lattice symmetries renders the problem non-coercive.…
Deformation band patterning in single crystals is investigated using a finite strain crystal viscoplasticity model based on the evolution of dislocation densities. In the presence of strong latent hardening and weak rate dependence, the…
In an interesting recent paper [1] (A. Acharya, Stress of a spatially uniform dislocation density field, J. Elasticity 137 (2019), 151--155), Acharya proved that the stress produced by a spatially uniform dislocation density field in a body…
Aside from the Volterra field, dislocations create a core field, which can be modeled in linear anisotropic elasticity theory with force and dislocation dipoles. We derive an expression of the elastic energy of a dislocation taking full…
The crack tip mechanics of strain gradient plasticity solids is investigated analytically and numerically. A first-order mechanism-based strain gradient (MSG) plasticity theory based on Taylor's dislocation model is adopted and implemented…
