We present an extension of the Allen-Cahn/Cahn-Hilliard system that incorporates a geometrically linear ansatz for the elastic energy of the precipitates. The model contains both the elastic Allen-Cahn system and the elastic Cahn-Hilliard system as special cases, and accounts for the microstructures on the microscopic scale. We prove the existence of weak solutions to the new model for a general class of energy functionals. We then give several examples of functionals that belong to this class. This includes the energy of geometrically linear elastic materials for dimensions D < 3. Moreover, we show this for D = 3 in the setting of scalar-valued deformations, which corresponds to the case of anti-plane shear. All this is based on explicit formulae for relaxed energy functionals newly derived in this article for D = 1 and D = 3. In these cases we can also prove the uniqueness of the weak solutions.

Initial Boundary Value

We consider the initial boundary value problem for the beam equation with the nonlinear strain. In our previous work this problem was proposed as a mathematical model for stretching and shrinking motions of the curve made of the elastic material on the plane. The aim of this paper is to establish uniqueness and existence of weak solutions. In particular, the uniqueness is proved by applying the approximate dual equation method.

AbstractWe study the existence of weak solutions to a Newtonian fluid∼non-Newtonian fluid mixed-type equation $$ {u_{t}}= \operatorname{div} \bigl(b(x,t){ \bigl\vert {\nabla A(u)} \bigr\vert ^{p(x) - 2}}\nabla A(u)+\alpha (x,t)\nabla A(u) \bigr)+f(u,x,t). $$ u t = div ( b ( x , t ) | ∇ A ( u ) | p ( x ) − 2 ∇ A ( u ) + α ( x , t ) ∇ A ( u ) ) + f ( u , x , t ) . We assume that $A'(s)=a(s)\geq 0$ A ′ ( s ) = a ( s ) ≥ 0 , $A(s)$ A ( s ) is a strictly increasing function, $A(0)=0$ A ( 0 ) = 0 , $b(x,t)\geq 0$ b ( x , t ) ≥ 0 , and $\alpha (x,t)\geq 0$ α ( x , t ) ≥ 0 . If $$ b(x,t)=\alpha (x,t)=0,\quad (x,t)\in \partial \Omega \times [0,T], $$ b ( x , t ) = α ( x , t ) = 0 , ( x , t ) ∈ ∂ Ω × [ 0 , T ] , then we prove the stability of weak solutions without the boundary value condition.
