Abstract
We consider the energetic description of a visco-plastic evolution
and derive an existence result. The energies are convex, but not necessarily
quadratic. Our model is a strain gradient model in which the curl of the
plastic strain contributes to the energy. Our existence results are based on a
time-discretization, the limit procedure relies on Helmholtz decompositions
and compensated compactness.
