Scale bridging of magneto-thermo-mechanical meso-structures of additive-manufactured and severe plastically deformed materials (A07)

• Subject Area: Mechanics
• Term: since 2020
• Project identifier: Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 405553726

Complex magnetic microstructures (provided by other projects A01, A05, A06, A08, B05, B06, B12, B13, Z02) will be analyzed with the thermodynamically consistent micromagnetic-elastically coupled finite element model developed in the previous funding period. To further increase efficiency and improve numerical stability, the variational formulations and algorithms will be further developed to investigate more realistic microstructures. Special attention is given to the analysis of defects and their influence on the effective magnetization properties, as well as to irreversible mechanical mechanisms.
