Given a piecewise smooth submanifold $\Gamma^{n-1} \subset \R^m$ and $p \in \R^m$, we define the {\em vision angle} $\Pi_p(\Gamma)$ to be the $(n-1)$-dimensional volume of the radial projection of $\Gamma$ to the unit sphere centered at…

A discrete-to-continuum analysis for free-boundary problems related to crystalline films deposited on substrates is performed by $\Gamma$-convergence. The discrete model here introduced is characterized by an energy with two contributions,…

We study the $\Gamma$-convergence of sequences of free-discontinuity functionals depending on vector-valued functions $u$ which can be discontinuous across hypersurfaces whose shape and location are not known a priori. The main novelty of…

We derive, by means of Gamma-convergence, the equations of homogenized bending rod starting from $3D$ nonlinear elasticity equations. The main assumption is that the energy behaves like h^2 (after dividing by the order h^2 of vanishing…

We study integrability and non-integrability for marginal deformations of 4d $\mathcal N =2$ SCFTs. We estimate various chaos indicators for the bulk theory which clearly shows the onset of a chaotic string dynamics in the limit of large…

The injection of a long flexible rod into a two-dimensional domain yields a complex pattern commonly studied through elasticity theory, packing analysis, and fractal geometries. "Loop" is a one-vertex entity that is naturally formed in this…

Edges are essential for the mechanical, chemical, electronic, and magnetic properties of two-dimensional (2D) materials. Research has shown that features assigned to edges are not strictly localized but often penetrate the bulk to some…

In this paper we study the asymptotic behavior of a structure made of curved rods of thickness 2\delta when \delta rightarrow 0. This study is carried on within the frame of linear elasticity by using the unfolding method. It is based on…

We carry out the spatially periodic homogenization of nonlinear bending theory for plates. The derivation is rigorous in the sense of Gamma-convergence. In contrast to what one naturally would expect, our result shows that the limiting…

This work is motivated by the classical discrete elastic rod model by Audoly et al. We derive a discrete version of the Kirchhoff elastic energy for rods undergoing bending and torsion and prove $\Gamma$-convergence to the continuous model.…

We give a new characterization of a continuous embedding between two function spaces of type $G\Gamma$. Such spaces are governed by functionals of type \begin{equation*} \|f\|_{G\Gamma(r,q;w,\delta)} := \left(\int_{0}^{L} \left(…

We prove smoothness of $W^{2,2}$ isometric immersions of surfaces endowed with a smooth Riemannian metric of positive Gauss curvature. We then derive the $\Gamma$-limit of three dimensional nonlinear shells with inhomogeneous energy…

The design of band-gap metamaterials, i.e., metamaterials with the capability to inhibit wave propagation of a specific frequency range, has numerous potential engineering applications, such as acoustic filters and vibration isolation…

This work describes models and numerical approximations that describe the mechanical behavior of deformable continua with embedded structural members, such as rigid bodies, beams, shells, etc. The continuum formulation extends an idea first…

We characterize the asymptotic behaviour, in the sense of $\Gamma$-convergence, of a thin magnetoelastic shallow shell. The compactness is achieved up to rigid motions. For deformations, it relies on an approximation by rigid movements,…

We consider a potential pathology in the derivation of plate theories as Gamma-limits of 3-dimensional nonlinear elasticity by Friesecke James and Muller (Comm. Pure Appl. Math., 55:1461-1506 and Arch. Ration. Mech. Anal., 180:183-236),…

We study the $\Gamma$-convergence of damage to fracture energy functionals in the presence of low-order nonlinear potentials that allows us to model physical phenomena such as fluid-driven fracturing, plastic slip, and the satisfaction of…

In this paper we consider nonlinearly elastic, frame-indifferent, and singularly perturbed two-well models for materials undergoing solid-solid phase transitions in any space dimensions, and we perform a simultaneous passage to…

After an introduction into the subject we show how one constructs a canonical formalism in space-time noncommutative theories which allows to define the notion of first-class constraints and to analyse gauge symmetries. We use this…

Given an open set with finite perimeter $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^n$, we consider the space $LD_\gamma^{p}(\Omega)$, $1\leq p<\infty$, of functions with $p$th-integrable deformation tensor on $\Omega$ and with $p$ th-integrable trace value…
