A method for solution of the Cahn–Hilliard equation is presented. Unlike previous work, the discrete equations for the new method possess a Lyapunov function. This makes it possible to prove convergence of the approximate solutions without assumptions beyond those necessary for existence and uniqueness of the differen…

A new method for combined finite-element and atomistic analysis of crystal defects has been developed. The coupling between the atomistic core and the surrounding continuum is described in terms of non-local elasticity theory. Static and dynamic tests demonstrate the satisfactory performance of this method. The model…

The Kohlrausch-Williams-Watts (KWW) and the Havriliak-Negami (HN) relaxation functions have been widely used to describe the relaxation behavior of glass-forming liquids and complex systems. While the HN relaxation function is a frequency function, the natural domain of the KWW relaxation function is time (although it…

Collagen molecules are structural macro-molecules of the extracellular matrix that include in their structure one or several domains that have a characteristic triple helical conformation. They have been classified by types that define distinct sets of polypeptide chains that can form homo- and heterotrimeric assembli…

Using a variational argument, we show that a two-dimensional (2D) crystal becomes defective in the presence of a random potential. The threshold pinning force and flow properties of a plastically deformed crystal are studied using a perturbation theory valid for weak pinning potential and strong driving force. In the…
