Infimizing sequences in nonconvex variational problems typically exhibit enforced finer and finer oscillations called microstructures such that the infimal energy is not attained. Although those oscillations are physically meaningful, finite element approximations experience difficulty in their reconstruction. The relaxation of the nonconvex minimization problem by (semi) convexification leads to a macroscopic model for the effective energy. The resulting discrete macroscopic problem is…

This work treats the scalar double-well problem by numerical solution of the relaxed problem (RP) leading to a (degenerate) convex minimisation problem and proves a priori and a posteriori estimates for σ-σ h in L 4/3 (Ω) and weaker weighted estimates for ⊇u - ⊽u h .
Local Stress Regularity in Scalar Nonconvex Variational Problems

This paper addresses convex but not necessarily strictly convex minimization problems, and shows regularity up to the boundary in a class of energy functionals for which any stress field $\sigma$ in $L^q(\Omega)$ with $\operatorname{{\rm div}}\sigma $ belongs to $ W^{1,q}_{loc}(\ Omega)$.
