A two phase elastic composite with weakly compressible elastic inclusions is considered. The homogenised two-scale limit problem is found, via a version of the method of two-scale convergence, and analysed. The microscopic part of the…
The paper deals with homogenisation problems for high-contrast symmetric convolution-type operators with integrable kernels in media with a periodic microstructure. We adapt the two-scale convergence method to nonlocal convolution-type…
We study quantitative homogenization of the eigenvalues for elliptic systems with periodically distributed inclusions, where the conductivity of inclusions are strongly contrast to that of the matrix. We propose a quantitative version of…
We study graph-directed conjugate functional equations on the unit interval indexed by the complete digraph with self-loops on two vertices. We focus on the singularity and regularity of the solutions for compatible systems of weak…
A variational model for the interaction between homogenization and phase separation is considered in the regime where the former happens at a finer scale than the latter. The first order $\Gamma-$limit is proven to exhibit a separation of…
On the integer lattice we consider the discrete membrane model, a random interface in which the field has Laplacian interaction. We prove that, under appropriate rescaling, the discrete membrane model converges to the continuum membrane…
We study the continuum limit of discrete, nonconvex energy functionals defined on crystal lattices in dimensions $d\geq 2$. Since we are interested in energy functionals with random (stationary and ergodic) pair interactions, our problem…
We focus on the probability distribution function (pdf) $P(\Delta \gamma; \gamma)$ where $\Delta \gamma$ are the {\em measured} strain intervals between plastic events in an athermal strained amorphous solids, and $\gamma$ measures the…
This work discusses the homogenization analysis for diffusion processes on scale-free metric graphs, using weak variational formulations. The oscillations of the diffusion coefficient along the edges of a metric graph induce internal…
The sigma-convergence concept has been up to now used to derive macroscopic models in full space dimensions. In this work, we generalize it to thin heterogeneous domains given rise to phenomena in lower space dimensions. More precisely, we…
Motivated by applications to image reconstruction, in this paper we analyse a \emph{finite-difference discretisation} of the Ambrosio-Tortorelli functional. Denoted by $\varepsilon$ the elliptic-approximation parameter and by $\delta$ the…
This article is devoted to obtain the $\Gamma$-limit, as $\epsilon$ tends to zero, of the family of functionals $$F_{\epsilon}(u)=\int_{\Omega}f\Bigl(x,\frac{x}{\epsilon},..., \frac{x}{\epsilon^n},\nabla u(x)\Bigr)dx$$, where…
We consider a class of doubly nonlinear degenerate hyperbolic-parabolic equations with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions, for which we first establish the existence and uniqueness of entropy solutions. We then turn to the…
In this paper we describe the asymptotic behavior of rigid spin lattice energies by exhibiting a continuous interfacial limit energy as scaling to zero the lattice spacing. The limit is not trivial below a percolation threshold: it can be…
A linear system of differential equations describing a joint motion of elastic porous body and fluid occupying porous space is considered. Although the problem is linear, it is very hard to tackle due to the fact that its main differential…
The article studies the reiterated homogenization of linear elliptic variational inequalities arising in problems with unilateral constrains. We assume that the coefficients of the equations satisfy and abstract hypothesis covering on each…
In this paper, we introduce a family of observables for the dimer model on a bi-periodic bipartite planar graph, called pattern density fields. We study the scaling limit of these objects for liquid and gaseous Gibbs measures of the dimer…
In this work we examine the stability of some classes of integrals, and in particular with respect to homogenization. The prototypical case is the homogenization of quadratic energies with periodic coefficients perturbed by a term vanishing…
We introduce a class of ${\mathbb{Z}}_N$ graded discrete Lax pairs, with $N\times N$ matrices, linear in the spectral parameter. We give a classification scheme for such Lax pairs and the associated discrete integrable systems. We present…
This work is devoted to the study of the limiting behaviour of the Stokes type fluid flows in porous media. The boundary conditions here are of the Fourier-Neumann's type on the boundary of the holes. Under the periodic hypothesis on the…
