Existence and smoothness for a class of $n$D models in elasticity theory of small deformations
Abstract
We consider a model for deformations of a homogeneous isotropic body, whose shear modulus remains constant, but its bulk modulus can be a highly nonlinear function. We show that for a general class of such models, in an arbitrary space dimension, the respective PDE problem has a unique solution. Moreover, this solution enjoys interior smoothness. This is the first regularity result for elasticity problems that covers the most natural space dimension $3$ and that captures behaviour of many typical elastic materials (considered in the small deformations) like rubber, polymer gels or concrete.
