- ItemNumerical upscaling of parametric microstructures in a possibilistic uncertainty framework with tensor trains(Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2021) Eigel, Martin; Gruhlke, Robert; Moser, DieterWe develop a new fuzzy arithmetic framework for efficient possibilistic uncertainty quantification. The considered application is an edge detection task with the goal to identify interfaces of blurred images. In our case, these represent realisations of composite materials with possibly very many inclusions. The proposed algorithm can be seen as computational homogenisation and results in a parameter dependent representation of composite structures. For this, many samples for a linear elasticity problem have to be computed, which is significantly sped up by a highly accurate low-rank tensor surrogate. To ensure the continuity of the underlying effective material tensor map, an appropriate diffeomorphism is constructed to generate a family of meshes reflecting the possible material realisations. In the application, the uncertainty model is propagated through distance maps with respect to consecutive symmetry class tensors. Additionally, the efficacy of the best/worst estimate analysis of the homogenisation map as a bound to the average displacement for chessboard like matrix composites with arbitrary star-shaped inclusions is demonstrated.

The first class of models treats the diffusion-controlled regime of interface motion, while the second class is concerned with the interface-controlled regime of interface motion. Our models take care of conservation of mass and substance. We consider homogenised models, where different length scales of the experimental situation have been exploited in order to simplify the equations. These homogenised models generalise the well-known Lifshitz-Slyozov-Wagner model for Ostwald ripening. Mean field models capture the main properties of our system and are well adapted for numerics and further analysis. Numerical evidence suggests in which case which one of the two regimes might be appropriate to the experimental situation.
