We consider a class of models motivated by previous numerical studies of wrinkling in highly stretched, thin rectangular elastomer sheets. The model used is characterized by a finite-strain hyperelastic membrane energy perturbed by small…

In this paper a we derive by means of $\Gamma$-convergence a macroscopic strain-gradient plasticity from a semi-discrete model for dislocations in an infinite cylindrical crystal. In contrast to existing work, we consider an energy with…

In the limit of vanishing lattice spacing we provide a rigorous variational coarse-graining result for a next-to-nearest neighbor lattice model of a simple crystal. We show that the $\Gamma$-limit of suitable scaled versions of the model…

We prove that, in the limit of vanishing thickness, equilibrium configurations of inhomogeneous, three-dimensional non-linearly elastic rods converge to equilibrium configurations of the variational limit theory. More precisely, we show…

We compute effective energies of thin bilayer structures composed by soft nematic elastic-liquid crystals in various geometrical regimes and functional configurations. Our focus is on order-strain interaction in elastic foundations composed…

We find the strain energy function for isotropic incompressible solids exhibiting a linear relationship between shear stress and amount of shear, and between torque and amount of twist, when subject to large simple shear or torsion…

Energies and equilibrium equations for thin elastic plates are discussed, with emphasis on several issues pertinent to recent approaches in soft condensed matter. Consequences of choice of basis, choice of invariant strain measures, and of…

We study the static and dynamic structure of thermally fluctuating elastic thin sheets by investigating the overdamped dynamic F\"oppl-von K\'arm\'an equation, in which the F\"oppl-von K\'arm\'an equation from elasticity theory is driven by…

Athermal (i.e. zero-temperature) under-constrained systems are typically floppy, but they can be rigidified by the application of external strain, which is theoretically well understood. Here and in the companion paper, we extend this…

We proceed further with the study of minimum weak Riesz energy problems for condensers with touching plates, initiated jointly with Bent Fuglede (Potential Anal. 51 (2019), 197--217). Having now added to the analysis constraint and external…

We consider a thin elastic sheet in the shape of a disk that is clamped at its boundary such that the displacement and the deformation gradient coincide with a conical deformation with no stretching there. We define the free elastic energy…

We are concerned with a variant of the isoperimetric problem, which in our setting arises in a geometrically nonlinear two-well problem in elasticity. More precisely, we investigate the optimal scaling of the energy of an elastic inclusion…

We construct strong solutions for a nonlinear wave equation for a thin vibrating plate described by nonlinear elastodynamics. For sufficiently small thickness we obtain existence of strong solutions for large times under appropriate scaling…

We derive the variational limiting theory of thin films, parallel to the F\"oppl-von K\'arm\'an theory in the nonlinear elasticity, for films that have been prestrained and whose thickness is a general non-constant function. Using…

A model for a MEMS device, consisting of a fixed bottom plate and an elastic plate, is studied. It was derived in a previous work as a reinforced limit when the thickness of the insulating layer covering the bottom plate tends to zero. This…

A thin circular elastic sheet floating on a drop-like liquid substrate is deformed due to incompatibility between the curved substrate and the planar sheet. We adopt a variational viewpoint by minimizing the non-convex membrane energy…

Soft materials exhibit significant nonlinear geometric deformations and stress-strain relationships under external forces. This paper explores weakly nonlinear elasticity theories, including Landau's and Murnaghan's formulations, advancing…

In [Bonito et al., J. Comput. Phys. (2022)], a local discontinuous Galerkin method was proposed for approximating the large bending of prestrained plates, and in [Bonito et al., IMA J. Numer. Anal. (2023)] the numerical properties of this…

We consider a thin elastic strip of thickness h and we show that stationary points of the nonlinear elastic energy (per unit height) whose energy is of order h^2 converge to stationary points of the Euler-Bernoulli functional. The proof…

In non-linear incompatible elasticity, the configurations are maps from a non-Euclidean body manifold into the ambient Euclidean space, $\mathbb{R}^k$. We prove the $\Gamma$-convergence of elastic energies for configurations of a converging…
