Approximation of a martensitic laminate with varying volume fractions

چکیده
Abstract. We give results for the approximation of a laminate with varying volume fractions for multi-well energy minimization problems modeling martensitic crystals that can undergo either an orthorhombic to monoclinic or a cubic to tetragonal transformation. We construct energy minimizing sequences of deformations which satisfy the corresponding boundary condition, and we establish a series of error bounds in terms of the elastic energy for the approximation of the limiting macroscopic deformation and the simply laminated microstructure. Finally, we give results for the corresponding finite element approximation of the laminate with varying volume fractions.

متن کاملNonconforming finite element approximation of crystalline microstructure
We consider a class of nonconforming nite element approximations of a simply laminated microstructure which minimizes the nonconvex variational problem for the deformation of martensitic crystals which can undergo either an orthorhombic to monoclinic (double well) or a cubic to tetragonal (triple well) transformation. We rst establish a series of error bounds in terms of elastic energies for th...
متن کاملFinite Element Analysis of Microstructure for the Cubic to Tetragonal Transformation∗
Martensitic crystals which can undergo a cubic to tetragonal phase transformation have a nonconvex energy density with three symmetry-related, rotationally invariant energy wells. We give estimates for the numerical approximation of a first-order laminate for such martensitic crystals. We give bounds for the L2 convergence of directional derivatives in the “twin” plane, for the L2 convergence o...
متن کاملThe Simply Laminated Microstructure in Martensitic Crystals That Undergo a Cubic to Orthorhombic Phase Transformation
We study simply laminated microstructures of a martensitic crystal capable of undergoing a cubic to orthorhombic transformation of type P ! P 0 . The free energy density modeling such a crystal is minimized on six energy wells that are pairwise rank-one connected. We consider the energy minimization problem with Dirichlet boundary data compatible with an arbitrary but xed simple laminate. We rs...
