We consider the existence of optimal shapes in the context of the thermomechanical system of partial differential equations (PDE) using the recent approach based on elliptic regularity theory. We give an extended and improved definition of…
When they are damaged or injured, soft biological tissues are able to self-repair and heal. Mechanics is critical during the healing process, as the damaged extracellular matrix (ECM) tends to be replaced with a new undamaged ECM supporting…
In this article, a failure mode dependent and thermodynamically consistent continuum damage model with polynomial-based damage hardening functions is proposed for continuum damage modeling of laminated composite panels. The damage model…
Large-scale atomistic calculations, using empirical potentials for modeling semiconductors, have been performed on a stressed system with linear surface defects like steps. Although the elastic limits of systems with surface defects remain…
The yielding transition that occurs in amorphous solids under athermal quasistatic deformation has been the subject of many theoretical and computational studies. Here, we extend this analysis to include thermal effects at finite shear…
Incidental degeneracy and metallic character is probed for weakly coupled plasmas in free and confined environments. The generality of incidental degeneracy in quantum mechanical systems is discussed and demonstrated. It is a fundamental…
We formulate a continuum electro-chemo-mechanical gradient theory which couples electrochemical reactions with mechanical deformation and damage in solids. The framework models species transport across the host due to diffusion/migration…
We consider the potentially degenerate haptotaxis system \begin{equation*} \left\{ \begin{aligned} u_t &= \nabla \cdot (\mathbb{D} \nabla u + u \nabla \cdot \mathbb{D}) - \chi \nabla \cdot (u\mathbb{D}\nabla w) + \mu u(1-u^{r- 1}), \\ w_t…
We consider systematic numerical approximation of a viscoelastic phase separation model that describes the demixing of a polymer solvent mixture. An unconditionally stable discretisation method is proposed based on a finite element…
In this paper we prove the existence of weak solutions to degenerate parabolic systems arising from the fully coupled moisture movement, solute transport of dissolved species and heat transfer through porous materials. Physically relevant…
Quasistatic evolutions of critical points of time-dependent energies exhibit piecewise smooth behavior, making them useful for modeling continuum mechanics phenomena like elastic-plasticity and fracture. Traditionally, such evolutions have…
In this paper, we investigate a system of parabolic partial differential equations with unknown-dependent coefficients that integrates two models: an anisotropic orientation-adaptive denoising process in image processing and a phase-field…
We introduce and analyse a continuum model for an interacting particle system of Vicsek type. The model is given by a non-linear kinetic partial differential equation (PDE) describing the time-evolution of the density $f_t$, in the single…
In the present paper, a continuum model is introduced for fluid flow in a deformable porous medium, where the fluid may undergo phase transitions. Typically, such problems arise in modeling liquid-solid phase transformations in groundwater…
The aim of this work is to introduce a thermo-electromagnetic model for calculating the temperature and the power dissipated in cylindrical pieces whose geometry var\'ies with time and undergoes large deformations; the motion will be a…
We reformulate the theory of polycrystalline plasticity, in externally driven, nonequilibrium situations, by writing equations of motion for the flow of energy and entropy associated with dislocations. Within this general framework, and…
We revisit the dark degeneracy that arises from the Einstein equations relating geometry to the total cosmic substratum but not resolving its individual components separately. We establish the explicit conditions for the dark degeneracy in…
A circular twist disclination is a nontrivial example of a defect in an elastic continuum that causes large deformations. The minimal potential energy and the corresponding displacement field is calculated by solving the…
A degenerate Schr\"{o}dinger equation under fractional integral damping is considered. Here the damping term is singular and not integrable and we consider the two cases when damping acting on the degenerate boundary and nondegenerate…
In this paper we derive a new model for visco-elasticity with large deformations where the independent variables are the stretch and the rotation tensors which intervene with second gradients terms accounting for physical properties in the…
