We have decided to discontinue the publication of preprints on our preprint server as of 1 March 2024. The publication culture within mathematics has changed so much due to the rise of repositories such as ArXiV (www.arxiv.org) that we are encouraging all institute members to make their preprints available there. An institute's repository in its previous form is, therefore, unnecessary. The preprints published to date will remain available here, but we will not add any new preprints here.

Dynamic stability of martensite twins under regular kinetics
Ramón G. Plaza
Abstract
This paper considers phase boundaries governed by regular kinetic relations as first proposed by Abeyaratne and Knowles. It shows that static configurations of hyperelastic materials, in which two different martensitic (monoclinic) states meet along a planar interface, are dynamically stable towards fully three dimensional perturbations.
