| Abstract: |
| The talk is concerned with a mathematical model for a class of materials
which possess the special property that they respond mechanically to applied
magnetic fields and they change their magnetic properties in response
to mechanical stresses. The model consists of a system of equations for the balance
of momentum that is coupled with systems of equations describing the evolution
of quantities related to elastic and magnetic properties of the material. The issue
of existence as well as uniqueness of a solution to the system of partial differential
equations under consideration will be discussed. |
