In this paper, the authors study the thermodynamics of nonlinear materials with internal state variables whose temporal evolution is governed by ordinary differential equations, and employ a method developed by Coleman and Noll to find the general restrictions which the Clausius-Duhem inequality places on response functions.
Abstract
This is a study of the thermodynamics of nonlinear materials with internal state variables whose temporal evolution is governed by ordinary differential equations. After employing a method developed by Coleman and Noll to find the general restrictions which the Clausius—Duhem inequality places on response functions, we analyze various types of dynamical stability that can be exhibited by solutions of the internal evolution equations. We also discuss integral dissipation inequalities, conditions under which temperatures can be associated with internal states, and the forms taken by response functions when the material is a fluid.

An internal variable theory of elastoplasticity based on the maximum plastic work inequality

TL;DR: In this paper, convex analysis is used to explore in greater depth the nature of the evolution equation in internal variable formulations of elastoplasticity, where the thermodynamic force belongs to a set defined by a multi-valued map G.

Continuum modelling of damage in ceramic matrix composites

TL;DR: In this article, a continuum model for determining the mechanical response of unidirectionally fiber-reinforced ceramic matrix composites with damage is presented, where cracks, debonds and slipped surfaces are represented by second-order tensors which are regarded as internal variables.

An elasto-plastic theory of dislocation and disclination fields

TL;DR: In this paper, a linear theory of the elasto-plasticity of crystalline solids based on a continuous representation of crystal defects is presented, which accounts for the translational and rotational aspects of lattice incompatibility associated with the presence of dislocations and disclinations.

Combining phase field approach and homogenization methods for modelling phase transformation in elastoplastic media

TL;DR: In this article, a general constitutive framework is proposed to incorporate linear and nonlinear mechanical behaviour laws into a standard phase field model and two mixture rules for strain and stress are introduced, which are based on the Voigt/Taylor and Reuss/Sachs well-known homogenization schemes.

Data-Driven multiscale modeling in mechanics

TL;DR: A proposed Data-Driven framework for multiscale mechanical analysis of materials is demonstrated, able to predict the material response under complex nonmonotonic loading paths, and compares well against plane strain and triaxial compression shear banding experiments.

The Thermodynamics of Elastic Materials with Heat Conduction and Viscosity

TL;DR: The basic physical concepts of classical continuum mechanics are body, configuration of a body, and force system acting on a body as mentioned in this paper, which can be expressed as follows: a body is regarded as a smooth manifold whose elements are the material points; a configuration is defined as a mapping of the body into a three-dimensional Euclidean space, and a force system is defined to be a vector-valued function defined for pairs of bodies.
