Abstract
We show the existence of an energetic solution to a quasistatic evolutionary model of shape memory alloys. Elastic behavior of each material phase/variant is described by polyconvex energy density. Additionally, to every phase boundary, there is an interface‐polyconvex energy assigned, introduced by M. Šilhavý in . The model considers internal variables describing the evolving spatial arrangement of the material phases and a deformation mapping with its first‐order gradients. It allows for injectivity and orientation‐preservation of deformations. Moreover, the resulting material microstructures have finite length scales.
