Abstract

We prove the existence of weak solutions to a one-dimensional initial-boundary value problem for a model system of partial differential equations, which consists of a sub-system of linear elasticity and a nonlinear non-uniformly parabolic equation of second order. To simplify the existence proof of weak solutions in the 2006 paper of Alber and Zhu, we replace the function |p|κ:=|p|2/|p|2+κ2 in that work by |p|κ:=|p|2+κ2. The model is formulated by using a sharp interface model for phase transformations that are driven by material forces. Copyright © 2017 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
