Review text

This paper gives an introduction to the formulation of parametrized variational principles (PVPs) in mechanics. This is complemented by the review of recent developments in hybrid and nonlinear variational principles. A PVP is a variational principle containing free parameters that have no effect on the Euler-Lagrange equations and natural boundary conditions. The two-dimensional Poisson equation is used to present, in a tutorial fashion, the formulation of parametrized mixed functionals. This treatment is then extended to internal interfaces, which are useful in treatment of discontinuities, subdomain linkage and construction of parametrized hybrid functionals. This is followed by a similar but more compact treatment of three-dimensional classical elasticity, and a parametrization of nonlinear hyperelasticity.
