A convergence result is proved for the equilibrium configurations of a three-dimensional thin elastic beam, as the diameter h of the cross-section goes to zero. More precisely, we show that stationary points of the nonlinear elastic…

We develop explicit variational formulas for the $p(\cdot)$-modulus of curve families in symmetric domains of $\mathbb{R}^n$, under a log-H\"older continuous exponent $p\colon\Omega\to(1,\infty)$, where $\Omega$ is an open set. For annuli…
