This paper deals with error estimates for space-time
discretizations of 3D model for isothermal stress-induced
transformations in shape-memory materials. After recalling
existence and uniqueness results, a fully-discrete approximation is presented and an explicit space-time
convergence rate of order is derived.
This paper deals with error estimates for space-time discretizations in the context of evolutionary variational inequalities of rate-independent type. After introducing a general abstract evolution problem, we address a fully-discrete approximation and provide a priori error estimates. The application of the abstract theory to a semilinear case is detailed. In particular, we provide explicit space-time convergence rates for the isothermal Souza-Auricchio model for shape-memory alloys.
We propose a model for phase transformations that are driven by changes in the temperature. We consider the temperature as a prescribed prescribed quantity like an applied load. The model is based on the energetic formulation for rate-independent systems and thus allows for finite-strain elasticity. Time-dependent Dirichlet boundary conditions can be treated by decomposing the deformation as a composition of a given deformation satisfying the time-dependent boundary conditions and a part coinciding with the identity on the Dirichlet boundary.
This paper analyzes a model for phase
transformation in shape-memory alloys
induced by temperature changes and by
mechanical loading. We assume that the temperature is prescribed and
formulate the problem within the framework
of the energetic theory of
rate-independent processes. Existence and uniqueness results are proved.
In this paper, the one-dimensional equation for the transversal vibrations of an elastoplastic beam is derived from a general
three-dimensional system. The plastic behavior is modeled using the classical
three-dimensional von Mises plasticity model. It turns out that this single-yield model leads after a dimensional reduction to a multi-yield one-dimensional hysteresis model,
given by a hysteresis operator of Prandtl-Ishlinskii type whose density
function can be determined explicitly. This result indicates that the use
of Prandtl-Ishlinskii hysteresis operators in the modeling of elastoplasticity
is not just a questionable phenomenological approach, but in fact quite natural. In addition to the derivation of the model, it is shown that the resulting partial differential equation with hysteresis can be transformed into an equivalent system for which the existence and uniqueness
of a strong solution is proved. The proof employs techniques from the mathematical theory of hysteresis operators.
