- ItemGlobal spatial regularity for time dependent elasto-plasticity and related problems(Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2009) Knees, DorotheeWe study the global spatial regularity of solutions of generalized elasto-plastic models with linear hardening on smooth domains. Under natural smoothness assumptions on the data and the boundary we obtain that the displacements belong to L^8((0,T);H^(3/2-d)(O)) whereas the internal variables belong to L^8((0,T);H^(1/2-d)(O)). The key step in the proof is a reflection argument which gives the regularity result in directions normal to the boundary on the basis of tangential regularity results
- ItemAnalytical and numerical aspects of time-dependent models with internal variables(Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2009) Gruber, Peter; Knees, Dorothee; Nesenenko, Sergiy; Thomas, MaritaIn this paper some analytical and numerical aspects of time-dependent models with internal variables are discussed. The focus lies on elasto/visco-plastic models of monotone type arising in the theory of inelastic behavior of materials. This class of problems includes the classical models of elasto-plasticity with hardening and viscous models of the Norton-Hoff type. We discuss the existence theory for different models of monotone type, give an overview on spatial regularity results for solutions to such models and illustrate a numerical solution algorithm at an example. Finally, the relation to the energetic formulation for rate-independent processes is explained and temporal regularity results based on different convexity assumptions are presented
- ItemHomogenization in gradient plasticity(Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2009) Hanke, HaukeThis paper yields a two-scale homogenization result for a rate-independent elastoplastic system. The presented model is a generalization of the classical model of linearized elastoplacticity with hardening, which is extended by a gradient term of the plastic variables. The associated stored elastic energy density has periodically oscillating coefficients, where the period is scaled by e > 0 . The additional gradient term of the plastic variables z is contained in the elastic energy with a prefactor e? (? = 0) . We derive different limiting models for e ? 0 in dependence of &gamma ;. For ? > 1 the limiting model is the two-scale model derived in [MielkeTimofte07], where no gradient term was present. For ? = 1 the gradient term of the plastic variable survives on the microscopic cell poblem, while for ? ? [0,1) the limit model is defined in terms of a plastic variable without microscopic fluctuation. The latter model can be simplified to a purely macroscopic elastoplasticity model by homogenisation of the elastic part
- ItemDensity of convex intersections and applications(London : Royal Society, 2017) Hintermüller, M.; Rautenberg, C.N.; Rösel, S.In this paper, we address density properties of intersections of convex sets in several function spaces. Using the concept of Γ-convergence, it is shown in a general framework, how these density issues naturally arise from the regularization, discretization or dualization of constrained optimization problems and from perturbed variational inequalities. A variety of density results (and counterexamples) for pointwise constraints in Sobolev spaces are presented and the corresponding regularity requirements on the upper bound are identified. The results are further discussed in the context of finite-element discretizations of sets associated with convex constraints. Finally, two applications are provided, which include elasto-plasticity and image restoration problems.
