Numerical analysis of microstructure
This paper deals with numerical simulation of minimization problems of the form: (M) Minimize \(E(u)= \int_\Omega W(Du)\,dx+\) (lower order terms in \(u\)), over \(u\in{\mathcal A}\) and two related forms: (G) Minimize \(\int_\Omega\langle\nu, W\rangle\,dx+\) (lower order terms), over \((u,\nu)\in{\mathcal B}\); (C) Minimize \(\int_\Omega CW(\nabla u)\,dx+\) (lower order terms), over \(u\in{\mathcal A}\), and typically allow for minimizing (infimizing) sequences enforcing finer and finer oscillations (microstructures). Here (G) is other associated formulation of (M): a generalized problem with measure-valued solutions and the convexified problem (C) (respectively, a quasiconvexified problem (Q)), are both essentially equivalent to (M). The primary goal of the paper is the promotion of the strategy that, depending on the target of computation and on the solvability, one of the three problems (M), (G), (C) (respectively (Q)) should be selected and discretized. The second goal is the discussion of (numerical) difficulties associated with three discrete counterparts \(((\text{M}_h,\text{G}_h,\text{C}_h))\). The main results: For a given target quantity, the mathematical formulation can be chosen properly (for instance, a macroscopic deformation \(u\) in (M) can be approximated by a discrete version of an auxiliary problem \((\text{C}_h)\)). The Young measures \(\nu\) generated by infimizing sequences of (M), are approximated within a post-processing step by grad \(u_h\). Although grad \(u_h\) shows no oscillations at all, the Young measures and the stress field of (M) can be deduced via simple formulae. The solution algorithms, which include the automatic adaptive mesh-design as well, for the problem \((\text{C}_h)\) make use of the convex structure (C) (instead of clusters of minimizers), the set of minimizers is convex, and standard descent algorithms work even in the presence of degeneracies. The author presents all results in a systematic and self-contained manner, the proofs are sufficiently detailed. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0970.00026].
