    On quenched homogenization of long-range random conductance models on stationary ergodic point processes
    (Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2022) Heida, Martin
    We study the homogenization limit on bounded domains for the long-range random conductance model on stationary ergodic point processes on the integer grid. We assume that the conductance between neares neighbors in the point process are always positive and satisfy certain weight conditions. For our proof we use long-range two-scale convergence as well as methods from numerical analysis of finite volume methods.

    Stochastic homogenization on perforated domains III -- General estimates for stationary ergodic random connected Lipschitz domains
    (Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2022) Heida, Martin
    This is Part III of a series on the existence of uniformly bounded extension operators on randomly perforated domains in the context of homogenization theory. Recalling that randomly perforated domains are typically not John and hence extension is possible only from W 1,p to W 1,r, r < p, we will show that the existence of such extension operators can be guarantied if the weighted expectations of four geometric characterizing parameters are bounded: The local Lipschitz constant M, the local Lipschitz radius Δ , the mesoscopic Voronoi diameter ∂ and the local connectivity radius R.

    Stochastic homogenization on perforated domains II – Application to nonlinear elasticity models
    (Berlin : Wiley-VCH, 2022) Heida, Martin
    Based on a recent work that exposed the lack of uniformly bounded (Formula presented.) extension operators on randomly perforated domains, we study stochastic homogenization of nonlinear p-elasticity, (Formula presented.), on such structures using instead the extension operators constructed in former works. We thereby introduce two-scale convergence methods on such random domains under the intrinsic loss of regularity and prove some generally useful calculus theorems on the probability space, for example, abstract Gauss theorems.

    Stochastic homogenization on randomly perforated domains
    (Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2020) Heida, Martin
    We study the existence of uniformly bounded extension and trace operators for W1,p-functions on randomly perforated domains, where the geometry is assumed to be stationary ergodic. Such extension and trace operators are important for compactness in stochastic homogenization. In contrast to former approaches and results, we use very weak assumptions on the geometry which we call local (δ, M)-regularity, isotropic cone mixing and bounded average connectivity. The first concept measures local Lipschitz regularity of the domain while the second measures the mesoscopic distribution of void space. The third is the most tricky part and measures the ''mesoscopic'' connectivity of the geometry. In contrast to former approaches we do not require a minimal distance between the inclusions and we allow for globally unbounded Lipschitz constants and percolating holes. We will illustrate our method by applying it to the Boolean model based on a Poisson point process and to a Delaunay pipe process. We finally introduce suitable Sobolev spaces on Rd and Ω in order to construct a stochastic two-scale convergence method and apply the resulting theory to the homogenization of a p-Laplace problem on a randomly perforated domain.

    Precompact probability spaces in applied stochastic homogenization
    (Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2021) Heida, Martin
    We provide precompactness and metrizability of the probability space Ω for random measures and random coefficients such as they widely appear in stochastic homogenization and are typically given from data. We show that these properties are enough to implement the convenient two-scale formalism by Zhikov and Piatnitsky (2006). To further demonstrate the benefits of our approach we provide some useful trace and extension operators for Sobolev functions on Ω, which seem not known in literature. On the way we close some minor gaps in the Sobolev theory on Ω which seemingly have not been proven up to date.

    Stochastic two-scale convergence and Young measures
    (Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2021) Heida, Martin; Neukamm, Stefan; Varga, Mario
    In this paper we compare the notion of stochastic two-scale convergence in the mean (by Bourgeat, Mikelić and Wright), the notion of stochastic unfolding (recently introduced by the authors), and the quenched notion of stochastic two-scale convergence (by Zhikov and Pyatnitskii). In particular, we introduce stochastic two-scale Young measures as a tool to compare mean and quenched limits. Moreover, we discuss two examples, which can be naturally analyzed via stochastic unfolding, but which cannot be treated via quenched stochastic two-scale convergence.

    GENERIC for dissipative solids with bulk-interface interaction
    (Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2021) Heida, Martin; Thomas, Marita
    The modeling framework of GENERIC was originally introduced by Grmela and Öttinger for thermodynamically closed systems. It is phrased with the aid of the energy and entropy as driving functionals for reversible and dissipative processes and suitable geometric structures. Based on the definition functional derivatives we propose a GENERIC framework for systems with bulk-interface interaction and apply it to discuss the GENERIC structure of models for delamination processes.

    Stochastic homogenization on irregularly perforated domains
    (Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2021) Heida, Martin; Jahnel, Benedikt; Vu, Anh Duc
    We study stochastic homogenization of a quasilinear parabolic PDE with nonlinear microscopic Robin conditions on a perforated domain. The focus of our work lies on the underlying geometry that does not allow standard homogenization techniques to be applied directly. Instead we prove homogenization on a regularized geometry and demonstrate afterwards that the form of the homogenized equation is independent from the regularization. Then we pass to the regularization limit to obtain the anticipated limit equation. Furthermore, we show that Boolean models of Poisson point processes are covered by our approach.

    Stochastic homogenization on perforated domains I: Extension operators
    (Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2021) Heida, Martin
    This preprint is part of a major rewriting and substantial improvement of WIAS Preprint 2742. In this first part of a series of 3 papers, we set up a framework to study the existence of uniformly bounded extension and trace operators for W1,p-functions on randomly perforated domains, where the geometry is assumed to be stationary ergodic. We drop the classical assumption of minimaly smoothness and study stationary geometries which have no global John regularity. For such geometries, uniform extension operators can be defined only from W1,p to W1,r with the strict inequality r

    Homogenization of a porous intercalation electrode with phase separation
    (Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2021) Heida, Martin; Landstorfer, Manuel; Liero, Matthias
    In this work, we derive a new model framework for a porous intercalation electrode with a phase separating active material upon lithium intercalation. We start from a microscopic model consisting of transport equations for lithium ions in an electrolyte phase and intercalated lithium in a solid active phase. Both are coupled through a Neumann--boundary condition modeling the lithium intercalation reaction. The active material phase is considered to be phase separating upon lithium intercalation. We assume that the porous material is a given periodic microstructure and perform analytical homogenization. Effectively, the microscopic model consists of a diffusion and a Cahn--Hilliard equation, whereas the limit model consists of a diffusion and an Allen--Cahn equation. Thus we observe a Cahn--Hilliard to Allen--Cahn transition during the upscaling process. In the sense of gradient flows, the transition goes in hand with a change in the underlying metric structure of the PDE system.
