| Abstract Scope |
Our recent results on the following basic problems of the phase field approach (PFA) and finite element simulations will be presented:
1. Multivariant martensitic phase transformations: nano- and microscale PFA, large strains, and lattice instability conditions.
2. PFA to dislocations at nano- and microscale, in particular, using contact problem.
3. Interaction between phase transformations and dislocations at nano- and microscale.
4. Application to plastic strain-induced phase transformations at high pressure and large shear: barrierless nucleation, drastic reduction of transformation pressure, local and coarse-grained thermodynamic equilibrium conditions, strain-controlled kinetics.
