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…

In this paper, we derive a linearized Kirchhoff model from three dimensional nonlinear elastic energy of plates with incompatible prestrain as its thickness $h$ tends to zero and its elastic energy scales like $h^{\beta}$ with $2<\beta<4.$…

We study the asymptotic behaviour, in the sense of $\Gamma$-convergence, of a thin incompressible magnetoelastic plate, as its thickness goes to zero. We focus on the linearized von K\'arm\'an regime. The model features a mixed…

We study the $\Gamma$-limit of sequences of variational problems for straight, transversely curved shallow shells, as the width of the planform $\varepsilon$ goes to zero. The energy is of von K\'arm\'an type for shallow shells under…

The three-dimensional shapes of thin lamina such as leaves, flowers, feathers, wings etc, are driven by the differential strain induced by the relative growth. The growth takes place through variations in the Riemannian metric, given on the…

The equations for the equilibrium of a thin elastic ribbon are derived by adapting the classical theory of thin elastic rods. Previously established ribbon models are extended to handle geodesic curvature, natural out-of-plane curvature,…

We derive a dimensionally-reduced limit theory for an $n$-dimensional nonlinear elastic body that is slender along $k$ dimensions. The starting point is to view an elastic body as an $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifold together with a not…

Elastic ribbons, slender structures whose length ($L$), width ($W$), and thickness ($b$) satisfy $L \gg W \gg b$, exhibit mechanical behaviors intermediate between one-dimensional rods ($L \gg W, b$) and two-dimensional plates ($L, W \gg…

We present a theory of deformation of ribbons made of nematic polymer networks (NPNs). These materials exhibit properties of rubber and nematic liquid crystals, and can be activated by external stimuli of heat and light. A two-dimensional…

In this paper we derive, by means of $\Gamma$-convergence, the periodically wrinkled plate model starting from three dimensional nonlinear elasticity. We assume that the thickness of the plate is $h^2$ and that the mid-surface of the plate…

We derive the time-dependent von K\'arm\'an plate equations from three dimensional, purely atomistic particle models. In particular, we prove that a thin structure of interacting particles whose dynamics is governed by Newton's laws of…

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…

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…

The paper is dedicated to the investigation of simultaneous homogenization and dimension reduction of textile structures as elasticity problem with an energy in the von-K{\'a}rm{\'a}n-regime. An extension for deformations is presented…

We study the dimensional reduction from three to two dimensions in hyperelastic materials subject to a live load, modeled as a constant pressure force. Our results demonstrate that this loading has a significant impact in higher-order…

The Kirchhoff-Love hypothesis expresses a kinematic constraint that is assumed to be valid for the deformations of a three-dimensional body when one of its dimensions is much smaller than the other two, as is the case for plates. This…

During the last century, two independent theories using the concept of dimensional reduction have been developed independently. The first, known as F\"oppl-von K\`arm\`an theory, uses Riemannian geometry and continuum mechanics to study the…

We derive a dimension-reduction limit for a three-dimensional rod with material voids by means of $\Gamma$-convergence. Hereby, we generalize the results of the purely elastic setting [57] to a framework of free discontinuity problems. The…

We derive a hierarchy of plate theories for heterogeneous multilayers from three dimensional nonlinear elasticity by means of $\Gamma$-convergence. We allow for layers composed of different materials whose constitutive assumptions may vary…

Using dimensionally reduced models for the numerical simulation of thin objects is highly attractive as this reduces the computational work substantially. The case of narrow thin elastic bands is considered and a convergent finite element…
