Due to the large coupling between their electrical and mechanical properties, ferroelectric
ceramics are increasingly being implemented in novel devices. This review reports on …

Hard magnetorheological elastomers (h-MREs) are essentially two phase composites
comprising permanently magnetizable metallic inclusions suspended in a soft elastomeric …

An isothermal energy balance is formulated for a system consisting of deformable dielectric
bodies, electrodes, and the surrounding space. The formulation in this paper is obtained in …

This paper deals with the constitutive modeling of ferroelectric and ferroelastic
piezoceramics which are of gaining importance for modern sensing and actuation …

We introduce provably unconditionally stable mixed variational methods for phase-field
models. Our formulation is based on a mixed finite element method for space discretization …

This paper is devoted to the numerical simulation of the Navier–Stokes–Korteweg
equations, a phase-field model for water/water-vapor two-phase flows. We develop a …

A continuum thermodynamics framework is devised to model the evolution of ferroelectric
domain structures. The theory falls into the class of phase-field or diffuse-interface modeling …

Recent studies on magnetically hard, particle-filled magnetorheological elastomers (h-
MREs) have revealed their stretch-independent magnetization response after full pre …

Piezoelectric and ferroelectric materials have gained extensive applications in
electromechanical devices, microelectromechanical systems and smart composite materials …

Most current magnetorheological elastomers (MREs) are broadly categorized into hard (h-
MREs) and soft (s-MREs) depending on the magnetic properties of the underlying particles …
