We present a deformable Discrete Element Method (DEM) that extends the classical rigid-particle formulation through a reduced-order description of elastic grain-scale deformation. The method hinges on two developments. First, an energetic…

Presented here is a study of well-posedness and asymptotic stability of a "degenerately damped" PDE modeling a vibrating elastic string. The coefficient of the damping may vanish at small amplitudes thus weakening the effect of the…

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…

We derive the variational formulation of a gradient damage model by applying the energetic formulation of rate-independent processes and obtain a regularized formulation of fracture. The model exhibits different behavior at traction and…

In this paper we analyze a system for brittle delamination between two visco-elastic bodies, also subject to inertia, which can be interpreted as a model for dynamic fracture. The rate-independent flow rule for the delamination parameter is…

The present paper continues the study of infinite dimensional calculus via regularization, started by C. Di Girolami and the second named author, introducing the notion of "weak Dirichlet process" in this context. Such a process $\X$,…

The aim of this work is to show an abstract framework to analyze the numerical approximation by using a finite element method in space and a Backward-Euler scheme in time of a family of degenerate parabolic problems. We deduce sufficient…

Nonlinear elastic metamaterials are known to support a variety of dynamic phenomena that enhance our capacity to manipulate elastic waves. Since these properties stem from complex, subwavelength geometry, full-scale dynamic simulations are…

Domain decomposition based time integrators allow the usage of parallel and distributed hardware, making them well-suited for the temporal discretization of parabolic systems, in general, and degenerate parabolic problems, in particular.…

This paper presents a mathematical analysis of a doubly degenerate parabolic equation and its application to the Richards equation using a bounded auxiliary variable. We establish the existence of weak solutions using semi-implicit time…

Soft porous materials, such as biological tissues and soils, are exposed to periodic deformations in a variety of natural and industrial contexts. The detailed flow and mechanics of these deformations have not yet been systematically…

This work concerns the continuum basis and numerical formulation for deformable materials with viscous dissipative mechanisms. We derive a viscohyperelastic modeling framework based on fundamental thermomechanical principles. Since most…

The goal of this paper is to study a nonlinear viscoelastic wave equation with strong damping, time-varying delay and dynamical boundary condition. By introducing suitable energy and Lyapunov functionals, under suitable assumptions, we then…

For two-scale homogenization of a general class of asymptotically degenerating %uniformly strongly elliptic symmetric PDE systems with a critically scaled high contrast in periodic coefficients of a small period $\varepsilon$, we derive a…

This work presents a physics-informed deep learning-based super-resolution framework to enhance the spatio-temporal resolution of the solution of time-dependent partial differential equations (PDE). Prior works on deep learning-based…

Scientific computing for large deformation of elastic-plastic solids is critical for numerous real-world applications. Classical numerical solvers rely primarily on local discrete linear approximation and are constrained by an inherent…

We study a $4$th order PDE with a $2$nd order correction that is a modification of one suggested by Peter Smereka using the tools of Krug et al (Z. Phys. B., 1994). First, we provide a non-rigorous derivation of the full model derived with…

The modeling of cracks has been an intensely researched topic for decades - both from the mechanical as well as from the mathematics point of view. As far as the modeling of sharp cracks/interfaces is concerned, the resulting free boundary…

In this paper we consider nonlinear parabolic systems with elliptic part which can be also degenerate. We prove optimal error estimates for smooth enough solutions. The main novelty, with respect to previous results, is that we obtain the…

This paper develops a damage model for unfilled cross-linked rubbers based on the concept of scission of polymer chains. The model is built up on the well-known Gent elastic potential complemented by a kinetic equation describing effects of…
