Nonlinear elastic theory studies the elastic constants of a material (such as Young's modulus or bulk modulus) as a power series in the applied load. The inverse bulk modulus K, for example depends on the compression P: $ {1/ K(P)} = c_0 +…
We propose a methodology for the homogenization of periodic elastic lattices that covers the case of unstable lattices, having affine (macroscopic) or periodic (microscopic) mechanisms. The singular cell problems that are encountered when a…

Asymptotic homogenisation is considered for problems with integral constraints imposed on a slowly-varying microstructure; an insulator with an array of perfectly dielectric inclusions of slowly varying size serves as a paradigm. Although…
This work deals with the homogenization of functionals with linear growth in the context of $\mathcal{A}$-quasiconvexity. A representation theorem is proved, where the new integrand function is obtained by solving a cell problem where the…
