Abstract :
[en] A coupled Electro-Thermo-Mechanical Discontinuous Galerkin (DG)
method is developed considering the non-linear interactions of electrical, thermal,
and mechanical fields. The numerical properties of the DG are demonstrated, such as uniqueness, consistency, stability and the optimal convergence rate. The
framework is applied to simulate the response of smart composite materials, where the shape memory effect is triggered by the Joule effect.
