We consider a family of linearly elastic shells with thickness $2\varepsilon$ (where $\varepsilon$ is a small parameter). The shells are clamped along a portion of their lateral face, all having the same middle surface $S$, and may enter in…

We study the effective elastic behavior of incompatibly prestrained plates, where the prestrain is independent of thickness as well as uniform through the thickness. We model such plates as three-dimensional elastic bodies with a prescribed…

The gravity-driven spreading of one fluid in contact with another fluid is of key importance to a range of topics. To describe these phenomena, the two-layer shallow-water equations is commonly employed. When one layer is significantly…

We prove a $\Gamma$-convergence result for space dependent weak membrane energies, that is for 'truncated quadratic potentials', that are quadratic below some threshold (depending on the pair of points that we are considering) and constant…

This work considers the Keller-Segel consumption system \begin{eqnarray*} \left\{ \begin{array}{llll} u_t=\Delta (u\phi(v))+au-bu^\gamma,\quad &x\in \Omega,\quad t>0,\\ v_t=\Delta v-uv,\quad &x\in\Omega,\quad t>0 \end{array} \right.…

We present the methodology for deriving accurate and reliable cosmological constraints from non-linear scales (<50Mpc/h) with k-th nearest neighbor (kNN) statistics. We detail our methods for choosing robust minimum scale cuts and…

In this paper we study analytically the viscous `sabra' shell model of energy turbulent cascade. We prove the global regularity of solutions and show that the shell model has finitely many asymptotic degrees of freedom, specifically: a…

We validate the Timoshenko beam model as an approximation of the linear-elasticity model of a three-dimensional beam-like body. Our validation is achieved within the framework of $\Gamma$-convergence theory, in two steps: firstly, we…

A general method for the derivation of asymptotic nonlinear shallow water and deep water models is presented. Starting from a general dimensionless version of the water-wave equations, we reduce the problem to a system of two equations on…

We conclude our analysis of bubble divergences in the flat spinfoam model. In [arXiv:1008.1476] we showed that the divergence degree of an arbitrary two-complex Gamma can be evaluated exactly by means of twisted cohomology. Here, we…

This article concludes a three-part series developing a self-consistent theoretical framework of the electromechanics of lipid membranes at the continuum scale. Owing to their small thickness, lipid membranes are commonly modeled as…

This is a study of the Euler equations for free surface water waves in the case of varying bathymetry, considering the problem in the shallow water scaling regime. In the case of rapidly varying periodic bottom boundaries this is a problem…

We analyse the $\Gamma$-convergence of general non-local convolution type functionals with varying densities depending on the space variable and on the symmetrized gradient. The limit is a local free-discontinuity functional, where the bulk…

The purpose of this note is to establish two continuum theories for the bending and torsion of inextensible rods as $\Gamma$-limits of 3D atomistic models. In our derivation we study simultaneous limits of vanishing rod thickness $h$ and…

A general framework is developed to study the deformation and stress response in F{\"o}ppl-von K{\'a}rm{\'a}n shallow shells for a given distribution of defects, such as dislocations, disclinations, and interstitials, and metric anomalies,…

We present a rigorous derivation of dimensionally reduced theories for thin sheets of nematic elastomers, in the finite bending regime. Focusing on the case of twist nematic texture, we obtain 2D and 1D models for wide and narrow ribbons…

In this article, we derive a mathematical model for a shell (i.e. a thin elastic body) bonded to an elastic foundation by modifying Koiter's linear shell equations. We prove the existence and the uniqueness of solutions, and we explicitly…

We show here the global, in time, regularity of the three dimensional viscous Camassa-Holm (Lagrangian Averaged Navier-Stokes-alpha) equations. We also provide estimates, in terms of the physical parameters of the equations, for the…

We prove a Gamma-convergence result for a family of bending energies defined on smooth surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$ equipped with a director field. The energies strongly penalize the deviation of the director from the surface unit normal and…

This paper is concerned with the study of linear geometric rigidity of shallow thin domains under zero Dirichlet boundary conditions on the displacement field on the thin edge of the domain. A shallow thin domain is a thin domain that has…
