Semidefinite relaxations for nonlinear elasticity with energies convex in the Cauchy-Green strain tensor
Didier Henrion, Milan Korda, Martin Kružík +1
In nonlinear elasticity, finding the deformation of a material which minimizes a given stored energy density is a challenging calculus of variations problem which may fail to have…

Polyconvexity with Moments and Sums of Squares
Giovanni Fantuzzi, Didier Henrion, Martin Kru{ž}ík +2
A function of a matrix is polyconvex when it can be expressed as a convex function of the matrix minors. Polyconvexity is a regularity condition ensuring existence of minimizers in…
