We will propose a mathematically lucid setting for the derivation of reduced models from nonlinear continuum thermomechanics. We will justify linearized models in thermoviscoelasticity and…
The project aims at advancing the mathematical modeling of nonlinear mechanical phenomena described by large strain deformations in three different directions. First, we will investigate effective…
This project is focused on systematic experimental investigation and theoretical description of nucleation and propagation of martensitic phase transformation via localized inhomogeneities in NiTi…
