An approximate equation for the effective conductivity sigma_eff of systems with a finite maximal scale of inhomogeneities is deduced. An exact solution of this equation is found and its physical meaning is discussed. A two-phase randomly…
We investigate the fragmentation process of solid materials with crystalline and amorphous phases using the discrete element method. Damage initiates inside spherical samples above the contact zone in a region where the circumferential…
In a previous paper, field theory in curved space was considered, and a formula that expresses the first order variation of correlation functions with respect to the external metric was postulated. The formula is given as an integral of the…
Deformations can induce rotation with zero angular momentum where dissipation is a natural ``cost function''. This gives rise to an optimization problem of finding the most effective rotation with zero angular momentum. For certain plastic…
Let $T^m$ be the $m$-dimensional unit torus, $m \in N$. The torsional rigidity of an open set $\Omega \subset T^m$ is the integral with respect to Lebesgue measure over all starting points $x \in \Omega$ of the expected lifetime in $\Omega$…
Ever since a new symmetry was found for the imperfect fluid with vorticity the question of the effect of perturbations on the symmetry itself has been raised. This new symmetry arose when realizing that local four-velocity gauge-like…
We consider an optimal shape design problem for the plate equation, where the variable thickness of the plate is the design function. This problem can be formulated as a control in the coefficient PDE-constrained optimal control problem…
A two-dimensional body, exhibiting a slight rotational movement, moves in a rarefied medium of particles which collide with it in a perfectly elastic way. In previously realized investigations by the first two authors, Plakhov & Gouveia…
We study the rigidity problem for $(-\alpha)$-homogeneous solutions to the two-dimensional incompressible stationary Euler equations in sector-type domains $\Omega_{a, b, \theta_0}:= \{(r,\theta): a<r<b, \ 0<\theta<\theta_0\}$, where…
Incorporating geometric inductive biases into models can aid interpretability and generalization, but encoding to a specific geometric structure can be challenging due to the imposed topological constraints. In this paper, we theoretically…
We consider the non-linear thermoelastic plate equation in rectangular domains $\Omega$. More precisely, $\Omega$ is considered to be given as the Cartesian product of whole or half spaces and a cube. First the linearized equation is…
In this paper we find estimates for the optimal constant in the critical Sobolev trace inequality $\lambda_1(\Omega)\|u\|_{L^1(\partial\Omega)} \le \|u\|_{W^{1,1}(\Omega)}$ that are independent of $\Omega$. This estimates generalize those…
In this work, an adaptive edge element method is developed for an H(curl)-elliptic constrained optimal control problem. We use the lowest-order Nedelec's edge elements of first family and the piecewise (element-wise) constant functions to…
The energy-based definition provides a viable resolution to the longstanding confusion on the proper definition of $n$-th order rigidity and flexibility in geometric constraint systems. Applying an energy-based local rigidity analysis to…
The most natural first-order PDEs to be imposed on a Cayley 4-form in eight dimensions is the condition that it is closed. In this work, we investigate the natural second-order conditions. We start at the linearised level, and construct the…
In the first part of this paper, we show that the small-ball condition, recently introduced by Mendelson (2015), may behave poorly for important classes of localized functions such as wavelets, piecewise polynomials or trigonometric…
As countless examples show, it can be fruitful to study a sequence of complicated objects all at once via the formalism of generating functions. We apply this point of view to the homology and combinatorics of orbit configuration spaces:…
Optimal packing of spheres in $\mathbb R^d$ is studied by optimization of the energy $E$ (effective conductivity) of composites with ideally conducting spherical inclusions. It is demonstrated that the minimum of $E$ over locations of…
In this paper, we study the symmetry properties of nondegenerate critical points of shape functionals using the implicit function theorem. We show that, if a shape functional is invariant with respect to some continuous group of rotations,…
Designing high-performance electric machines that maintain their efficiency and reliability under uncertain material and operating conditions is crucial for industrial applications. In this paper, we present a novel framework for robust…
