Piotr Minakowski, University of Warsaw, Poland Joint work with J. Hron, J. Kratochvíl, M. Kružík and J. Málek Looking at severe plastic deformationexperiments, it seems that crystalline materials at yield behave as a special kind of anisotropic, highly viscous fluids flowing through an adjustable crystal lattice space. High viscosity provides a possibility to describe the flow as a quasi-static process, where inertial and other body forces can be neglected. The flow through the lattice space is restricted to preferred crystallographic planes and directions causing anisotropy. In the deformation process the lattice is strained and rotated. We present derivation of a model that is based on the rate form of the decomposition rule: the velocity gradient consists of the lattice velocity gradient and the sum of the velocity gradients corresponding to the slip rates of individual slip systems. The proposed crystal plasticity model allowing for large deformations is treated as the flow-adjusted boundary value problem. We provide local in time existence result for considered model. As a test example we analyze a plastic flow of an single crystal compressed in a channel die. We propose finite element scheme for a numerical solution in the Arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian (ALE) configuration.
MOdelling REvisited + MOdel REduction Modeling, analysis and computing in nonlinear PDEs. September 21-26, 2014, Chateau Liblice, Czech Republic. Recently developed implicit constitutive theory allows one to describe nonlinear response of complex materials in complicated processes and to model phenomena in both fluid and solid mechanics that have hitherto remained unexplained. The theory also provides a thermodynamically consistent framework for technologically important but so far only ad hoc engineering models without sound footing. The overall goal of the project is to develop accurate, efficient and robust numerical methods that allow one to perform large-scale simulations for the models arising from the new theoretical framework. A natural part of the goal is rigorous mathematical analysis of the models. The nonstandard structure of constitutive relations arising from the new framework requires the reconsideration of many existing approaches in the mathematical theory of partial differential equations and the development of new ones. In particular, basic notions such as the concept of the solution and its well-posedness need to be reconsidered. Further, the complexity of the constitutive relations calls for rigorous investigation on model reduction - the identification of simplified models that capture the chosen (practically relevant) information about the behaviour of the system and disregard irrelevant information. Reliable numerical simulations require the derivation of sharp a posteriori error estimates to control all possible sources of errors, including rarely studied but important algebraic errors. We believe that in solving difficult problems in mathematical modelling the individual aspects discussed above - physics, mathematical analysis and numerical analysis - are so closely interrelated that no breakthrough can be achieved without emphasising the holistic approach as the main principle. Our vision is to follow this principle: the entire process of modelling of complex materials will be revisited in an innovative manner.
