We consider a family of linearly viscoelastic shells with thickness $2\varepsilon$, clamped along a portion of their lateral face, all having the same middle surface $S=\mathbf{\theta}(\bar{\omega})\subset\mathbb{R}^3$, where…
This paper aims to extend to Orlicz-Sobolev spaces some results of integral representation for the simultaneous homogenization and dimensional reduction of integral energies defined on fields taking values on a differentiable manifold.…
A quasistatic model for a horizontally loaded thin elastic composite at small strains is studied. The composite consists of two adjacent plates whose interface behaves in a cohesive fashion with respect to the slip of the two layers. We…
Motivated by the analysis of thin structures, we study the variational dimension reduction of hyperelastic energies involving nonlocal gradients to an effective membrane model. When rescaling the thin domain, isotropic interaction ranges…
The zero and first order Gamma-limit of vanishing internal length scale are studied for the mechanical energy of a shear problem in geometrically nonlinear Cosserat elasticity. The convergence of the minimizers is shown and the limit…
We study the $\Gamma$-convergence of a class of elastica-type energies defined on immersed planar curves and depending on a small positive parameter $\epsilon$. As $\epsilon\to 0^+$, sequences with equibounded energy develop concentration…
The purpose of this work is to develop a model for a rectangular plate made of an orthotropic material. If compared with the classical model of the isotropic plate, the relaxed condition of orthotropy increases the degrees of freedom as a…
We consider the problem of the homogenization of non-local quadratic energies defined on $\delta$-periodic disconnected sets defined by a double integral, depending on a kernel concentrated at scale $\varepsilon$. For kernels with unbounded…
We consider low energy configurations for the Heitmann-Radin sticky discs functional, in the limit of diverging number of discs. More precisely, we renormalize the Heitmann-Radin potential by subtracting the minimal energy per particle,…
The rigorous derivation of linear elasticity from finite elasticity by means of Gamma-convergence is a well-known result, which has been extended to different models also beyond the elastic regime. However, in these results the applied…
We show how to derive (variants of) Michell truss theory in two and three dimensions rigorously as the vanishing weight limit of optimal design problems in linear elasticity in the sense of $\Gamma$-convergence. We improve our previous…
We show how to explicitly compute the homogenized curvature energy appearing in the isotropic $\Gamma$-limit for flat and for curved initial configuration Cosserat shell models, when a parental three-dimensional minimization problem on…
We study the homogenization of a class of non-local functionals featuring a rapidly oscillating periodic weight. By means of two-scale convergence, we explicitly evaluate the {\Gamma}-limit for constant target functions, revealing how the…
In this paper, we study an elastic bilayer plate composed of a nematic liquid crystal elastomer in the top layer and a nonlinearly elastic material in the bottom layer. While the bottom layer is assumed to be stress-free in the flat…
A static variational model for shape formation in heteroepitaxial crystal growth is considered. The energy functional takes into account surface energy, elastic misfit-energy and nucleation energy of dislocations. A scaling law for the…
A \Gamma-convergence result involving the elastic energy of a narrow inextensible ribbon is established. A non-dimensional form of the elastic energy is reduced to a one-dimensional integral over the centerline of the ribbon with the aspect…
We consider the problem of finding the homogenization limit of oscillating linear elliptic equations on an arbitrary parallelizable manifold $(M,g,\Gamma)$. We replicate the concept of two-scale convergence by pulling back tensors $T$…
We study the effective behavior of random, heterogeneous, anisotropic, second order phase transitions energies that arise in the study of pattern formations in physical-chemical systems. Specifically, we study the asymptotic behavior, as…
We study simultaneous homogenization and dimensional reduction of integral functionals for maps in manifold-valued Sobolev spaces. Due to the superlinear growth regime, we prove that the density of the $\Gamma$-limit is a tangential…
We study the energy spectrum of tight-binding Hamiltonian for regular hyperbolic tilings. More specifically, we compute the density of states using the continued-fraction expansion of the Green function on finite-size systems with more than…
