Cofactor Conditions (CCs) are geometric compatibility conditions mathematically derived from the crystallographic theory of martensitic phase transformation. The CCs guarantee compatible interfaces between the austenite and the parallelled…
In this paper we improve the understanding of the cofactor conditions, which are particular conditions of geometric compatibility between austenite and martensite, that are believed to influence reversibility of martensitic transformations.…
This paper investigates the conditions necessary for the elimination of transition layers at interfaces involving compound domains, extending the classical framework of cofactor conditions. Although cofactor conditions enable stress-free…
The phenomenological theory of martensite crystallography (PTMC) developed in the 1950s explains the main crystallographic and microstructural features of martensite in shape memory alloys, such as the habit planes of bi-variant laminate…
A thermodynamically consistent multiphase phase-field approach for stress and temperature-induced martensitic phase transformation at the nanoscale and under large strains is developed. A total of N independent order parameters are…
High-strain piezoelectric materials are often ceramics with a complicated constitution. In particular, PZT is used with compositions near to a so-called morphotropic phase boundary, where not only different variants of the same phase…
In this work we introduce a moving mask approximation to describe the dynamics of austenite to martensite phase transitions at a continuum level. In this framework, we prove a new type of Hadamard jump condition, from which we deduce that…
Based on original investigations into the stages of nucleation and growth of martensite, a consideration has been given to dynamic models of formation of martensite plates with a fine structure of transformation twins, which are compatible…
We use phase field simulations to study composites made of two different ferroelastics (e.g., two types of martensite). The deformation of one material due to a phase transformation can elastically affect the other constituent and induce it…
Superconductivity owes its properties to the phase of the electron pair condensate that breaks the $U(1)$ symmetry. In the most traditional ground state, the phase is uniform and rigid. The normal state can be unstable towards special…
Shape memory alloys inherit their macroscopic properties from their mesoscale microstructure originated from the martensitic phase transformation. In a cubic to orthorhombic transition, a single variant of marten- site can have a compatible…
The phenomenon of colossal magnetoresistance in manganites is generally agreed to be a result of competition between crystal phases with different electronic, magnetic, and structural order; a competition which can be strong enough to cause…
Three sets of Co-Ni-Ga alloy nanoparticles have been synthesized by a template-free chemical route. Structural, morphological, shape memory, and magnetic properties of room temperature martensite (M) phase, dual (M + secondary $\gamma$)…
The forward transformation from face centered cubic austenite to body centered cubic/tetragonal martensite in ferrous alloys can significantly in- fluence the microstructure and mechanical properties of the material. Inferring possible high…
We study microstructure formation in two nonconvex singularly-perturbed variational problems from materials science, one modeling austenite-martensite interfaces in shape-memory alloys, the other one slip structures in the plastic…
In a previous work a model was proposed for the phase transitions of crystals with localized magnetic moments which at low temperature have a "conical" arrangement that at higher T transforms into a more symmetrical structure (depending on…
Motivated by recent experiments on BaCuSi2O6, we investigate magnetic excitations and quantum phase transitions of layered dimer magnets with inter-layer frustration. We consider two scenarios, (A) a lattice with one dimer per unit cell and…
Needle-like twins are observed experimentally within the transition layer at the martensite-twinned martensite interface. We utilize a phase-field approach to investigate this microstructure. Our goal is to simulate the morphology of the…
Systematic experiments on stress-induced phase transitions in thin SMA structures in literature have revealed two interesting instability phenomena: the coalescence of two martensite-austenite fronts leads to a sudden stress drop and that…
Improving our understanding of the physical coupling between type-II superconductors (SC) and soft ferromagnetic materials (SFM), is root for progressing onto the application of SC-SFM metastructures in scenarios such as magnetic cloaking,…
