We study variational models for dislocations in three dimensions in the line-tension scaling. We present a unified approach which allows to treat energies with subquadratic growth at infinity and other regularizations of the singularity…

In this paper we study the homogenization of a class of energies concentrated on lines. In dimension $2$ (i.e., in codimension $1$) the problem reduces to the homogenization of partition energies studied by \cite{AB}. There, the key tool is…

This paper investigates the homogenization, dimension reduction, and linearization of a composite plate subjected to external loading within the framework of non-linear elasticity problem. The total elastic energy of the problem is of order…

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 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…

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…

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…

In this paper we study the homogenization effects on the model of elastic plate in the bending regime, under the assumption that the energy density (material) oscillates in the direction of thickness. We study two different cases. First, we…

We prove compactness with respect to $\Gamma$-convergence for a general class of non-local energies modelled after the ones considered in [Gobbino, CPAM (1998)]. We give an integral representation result for the limits, which are free…

We propose a discrete lattice model of the energy of dislocations in three-dimensional crystals which properly accounts for lattice symmetry and geometry, arbitrary harmonic interatomic interactions, elastic deformations and discrete…

The starting point for this work is a static macroscopic model for a high-contrast layered material in single-slip finite crystal plasticity, identified in [Christowiak & Kreisbeck, Calc. Var. PDE (2017)] as a homogenization limit via…

Starting from three-dimensional nonlinear elasticity under the restriction of incompressibility, we derive reduced models to capture the behavior of strings in response to external forces. Our $\Gamma$-convergence analysis of the…

We provide a rigorous justification of the classical linearization approach in plasticity. By taking the small-deformations limit, we prove via \Gamma-convergence for rate-independent processes that energetic solutions of the quasi-static…

We study thin films with residual strain by analyzing the $\Gamma-$limit of non-Euclidean elastic energy functionals as the material's thickness tends to $0.$ We begin by extending prior results \cite{bhattacharya2016plates}…

We propose models in nonlinear elasticity for nonsimple materials that include surface energy terms. Additionally, we also discuss living surface loads on the boundary. We establish corresponding linearized models and show their…

We prove a homogenization theorem for a class of quadratic convolution energies with random coefficients. Under suitably stated hypotheses of ergodicity and stationarity we prove that the $\Gamma$-limit of such energy is almost surely a…

In this paper, we deduce a macroscopic strain gradient theory for plasticity from a model of discrete dislocations. We restrict our analysis to the case of a cylindrical symmetry for the crystal in exam, so that the mathematical formulation…

We analyze the $\Gamma$-convergence of sequences of free-discontinuity functionals arising in the modeling of linear elastic solids with surface discontinuities, including phenomena as fracture, damage, or material voids. We prove…

This work is concerned with an asymptotic analysis, in the sense of $\Gamma$-convergence, of a sequence of variational models of brittle damage in the context of linearized elasticity. The study is performed as the damaged zone concentrates…

We derive, via simultaneous homogenization and dimension reduction, the Gamma-limit for thin elastic plates whose energy density oscillates on a scale that is either comparable to, or much smaller than, the film thickness. We consider the…
