Weak solutions to PDEs (35D30) PDEs in connection with mechanics of deformable solids (35Q74)

Abstract: In this paper, we analytically investigate multi-component Cahn-Hilliard and Allen-Cahn systems which are coupled with elasticity and uni-directional damage processes. The free energy of the system is of the form $in{t}_{O}megafrac12mathbfGammaablac:ablac+frac12|ablaz{|}^2+W^{m}athrmch(c)+W^{m}athrmel(e,c,z),mathrmdx$ with a polynomial or logarithmic chemical energy density $W^{m}athrmch$, an inhomogeneous elastic energy density $W^{m}athrmel$ and a quadratic structure of the gradient of the damage variable $z$. For the corresponding elastic Cahn-Hilliard and Allen-Cahn systems coupled with uni-directional damage processes, we present an appropriate notion of weak solutions and prove existence results based on certain regularization methods and a higher integrability result for the strain $e$.
