Plastic deformation in polycrystals is governed by the interplay between intra-granular slip
and grain boundary-mediated plasticity. However, while the role played by bulk dislocations …

Microstructural evolution in structural materials is known to occur in response to mechanical
loading and can often accommodate substantial plastic deformation through the coupled …

Abstract The Kobayashi–Warren–Carter (KWC) phase-field model was originally conceived
for two-dimensional systems to model grain boundary migration and grain rotation, which …

This survey on past, current and possible future directions on chemomechanics was written
on the occasion of the 55th birthday of Ilya Ovid'ko. The seminal contributions of his and his …

A novel continuum theory of incoherent interfaces with triple junctions is applied to study
coupled grain boundary (GB) motion in three-dimensional polycrystalline materials. The …

A thermodynamically consistent and physically motivated original small strain theory of
coupled strain-gradient plasticity and kinetics of incoherent austenite (A)-martensite (M) …

In this paper we derive a novel fourth-order gauge-invariant phenomenological model of
infinitesimal rate-independent gradient plasticity with isotropic hardening and Kröner's …

A general theory of thermodynamically consistent biomechanical–biochemical growth in a
body, considering mass addition in the bulk and at an incoherent interface, is developed …

Microstructural evolution in structural materials is known to occur in response to mechanical
loading and can often accommodate substantial plastic deformation through the coupled …

A material system consisting of a lamellar grain structure adjacent to a large single grain is
investigated. The system evolution is driven by changing of interface energy of the lamellar …
