Abstract: Branching can be observed at the austenite-martensite interface of martensitic phase transformations. For a model problem, Kohn and M"uller studied a branching pattern with optimal scaling of the energy with respect to its parameters. Here, we present finite element simulations that suggest a topologically different class of branching patterns and derive a novel, low dimensional family of patterns. After a geometric optimization within this family, the resulting pattern bears a striking resemblance to our simulation. The novel microstructure admits the same scaling exponents but results in a significantly lower upper energy bound.
