    Global solvability of a dissipative Frémond model for shape memory alloys. Part I : Mathematical formulation and uniqueness

    No full text
    The mathematical formulation of a dissipative Frémond model for shape memory alloys is given in terms of an initial and boundary values problem. Uniqueness of sufficiently regular solutions is proved by use of a contracting estimates procedure in the case when quadratic dissipative contributions are neglected in the energy balance. The related existence result is only established while its proof will be detailed by the author in a subsequent paper

    Well-posedness results for a model of damage in thermoviscoelastic materials

    No full text
    This paper deals with a phase transitions model describing the evolution of damage in thermoviscoelastic materials. The resulting system is highly non-linear, mainly due to the presence of quadratic dissipative terms and non-smooth constraints on the variables. Existence and uniqueness of a solution are proved, as well as regularity results, on a suitable finite time interval

    Some asymptotic analysis for hyperbolic relaxed Stefan problems with memory

    No full text
    The aim of this paper is to establish existence and uniqueness of the solution to a diffusive phase transition problem for an integrodifferential energy balance equation of hyperbolic type. We also examine some asymptotic relations with the related phase-field problem and the limiting case of the hyperbolic Stefan problem with memory
