We consider dislocations in the framework of Eringen’s nonlocal elasticity. The fundamental field equations of nonlocal elasticity are presented. Using these equations, the nonlocal force stresses of a straight screw and a straight edge dislocation are given. By the help of these nonlocal stresses, we are able to calculate the interaction forces between dislocations (Peach-Koehler forces). All ...

This paper is concerned with the existence of mild solutions to a class of semilinear differential inclusions with nonlocal conditions. By using the fixed point theory for multivalued maps, we get some general results on nonlocal differential inclusions, which include some recent results on nonlocal problems as special cases. An example of partial differential equations is provided to illustrat...

Atlas Simulation: A Numerical Scheme for Approximating Multiscale Diffusions Embedded in High Dimensions by Miles Crosskey Department of Mathematics Duke University Date: Approved: Mauro Maggioni, Supervisor

A new technique for proving uniqueness of martingale problems is introduced. The method is illustrated in the context of elliptic diffusions in Rd.

On the local systems hamiltonian in the weakly nonlocal Poisson brackets. Abstract We consider nonlocal field-theoretical Poisson brackets containing the operator of integration in the nonlocal part. The main attention is given to the nonlocal brackets of Hydrodynamic Type for which we introduce the Physical and Canonical forms. We use the Canonical form of these brackets for the investigation ...
