We prove a homogenization result for Mumford-Shah-type energies associated to a brittle composite material with weak inclusions distributed periodically at a scale ${\varepsilon}>0$. The matrix and the inclusions in the material have the…
We estimate the spatial distribution of heterogeneous physical parameters involved in the formation of magnetic domain patterns of polycrystalline thin films by using convolutional neural networks. We propose a method to obtain a spatial…
Reporting extensions of a recently developed approach to density functional theory with correct long-range be-havior (Phys. Rev. Lett. 94, 043002 (2005)). The central quantities are a splitting functional gamma[n] and a complementary…
We obtain a compactness result for $\Gamma$-convergence of integral functionals defined on $\mathcal{A}$-free vector fields. This is used to study homogenization problems for these functionals without periodicity assumptions. More…
A variational model in the context of the gradient theory for fluid-fluid phase transitions with small scale heterogeneities is studied. In particular, the case where the scale $\varepsilon$ of the small homogeneities is of the same order…
We analyze Allen-Cahn functionals with stationary ergodic coefficients in the regime where the length scale $\delta$ of the heterogeneities is much smaller (microscopic) than the interface width $\epsilon$ (mesoscopic). In the main result,…
We consider the homogenization of random integral functionals which are possibly unbounded, that is, the domain of the integrand is not the whole space and may depend on the space-variable. In the vectorial case, we develop a complete…
We study the quasistatic evolution of a linear peridynamic Kelvin-Voigt viscoelastic material. More specifically, we consider the gradient flow of a nonlocal elastic energy with respect to a nonlocal viscous dissipation. Following an…
A non-local dynamic homogenization technique for the analysis of a viscoelastic heterogeneous material which displays a periodic microstructure is herein proposed. The asymptotic expansion of the micro-displacement field in the transformed…
We study the asymptotic behaviour of a system of nonlinear reaction--diffusion--advection equations in a domain consisting of two bulk regions connected via microscopic channels distributed within a thin membrane. Both the width of the…
We investigate the problem of dimension reduction for plates in nonlinear magnetoelasticity. The model features a mixed Eulerian-Lagrangian formulation, as magnetizations are defined on the deformed set in the actual space. We consider…
Light-matter interaction in quantum materials presents a new paradigm as light can tip the balance between many competing quantum many-body phases to result in new phenomena. Describing the optical response of such materials requires…
We perform a multiscale analysis for the elastic energy of a $n$-dimensional bilayer thin film of thickness $2\delta$ whose layers are connected through an $\epsilon$-periodically distributed contact zone. Describing the contact zone as a…
The jamming transition is accompanied by a rich phenomenology, such as hysteresis or non-local effects, which is still not well understood. Here we experimentally investigate a model frictionless granular layer flowing down an inclined…
An asymptotic theory is developed to generate equations that model the global behaviour of electromagnetic waves in periodic photonic structures when the wavelength is not necessarily long relative to the periodic cell dimensions;…
We consider a thin heterogeneous layer consisted of the thin beams (of radius $r$) and we study the limit behaviour of this problem as the periodicity $\varepsilon$, the thickness $\delta$ and the radius $r$ of the beams tend to zero. The…
We derive a hierarchy of plate theories for heterogeneous multilayers from three dimensional nonlinear elasticity by means of $\Gamma$-convergence. We allow for layers composed of different materials whose constitutive assumptions may vary…
We discuss self-consistently obtained ground-state electronic properties of monolayers of graphene and a number of beyond graphene compounds, including films of transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), using the recently proposed strongly…
We identify effective models for thin, linearly elastic and perfectly plastic plates exhibiting a microstructure resulting from the periodic alternation of two elastoplastic phases. We study here both the case in which the thickness of the…
We present the first of two articles on the small volume fraction limit of a nonlocal Cahn-Hilliard functional introduced to model microphase separation of diblock copolymers. Here we focus attention on the sharp-interface version of the…
