A convergence result is proved for the equilibrium configurations of a three-dimensional thin elastic beam, as the diameter h of the cross-section goes to zero. More precisely, we show that stationary points of the nonlinear elastic…
The asymptotic behaviour of the equilibrium configurations of a thin elastic plate is studied, as the thickness $h$ of the plate goes to zero. More precisely, it is shown that critical points of the nonlinear elastic functional $\mathcal…
We show that the linear brittle Griffith energy on a thin rectangle $\Gamma$-converges after rescaling to the linear one-dimensional brittle Euler-Bernoulli beam energy. In contrast to the existing literature, we prove a corresponding sharp…
We investigate the equilibrium configurations of closed planar elastic curves of fixed length, whose stiffness, also known as the bending rigidity, depends on an additional density variable. The underlying variational model relies on the…
We discuss a discretization by polygonal lines of the Euler-Bernoulli bending energy and of Euler elasticae under clamped boundary conditions. We show Hausdorff convergence of the set of almost minimizers of the discrete bending energy to…
We consider a geometrically fully nonlinear variational model for thin elastic sheets that contain a single disclination. The free elastic energy contains the thickness $h$ as a small parameter. We give an improvement of a recently proved…
We prove that the critical points of the 3d nonlinear elasticity functional on shells of small thickness $h$ and around the mid-surface $S$ of arbitrary geometry, converge as $h\to 0$ to the critical points of the von K\'arm\'an functional…
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 consider a class of models for nonlinearly elastic surfaces in this work. We have in mind thin, highly deformable structures modeled directly as two-dimensional nonlinearly elastic continua, accounting for finite membrane and bending…
We prove convergence of critical points $u^h$ of the nonlinear elastic energies $E^h$ of thin incompressible plates $\Omega^h=\Omega \times (-h/2, h/2)$, which satisfy the von K\'arm\'an scaling: $E^h(u^h)\leq Ch^4$, to critical points of…
We show that solutions for a specifically scaled nonlinear wave equation of nonlinear elasticity converge to solutions of a linear Euler-Bernoulli beam system. We construct an approximation of the solution, using a suitable asymptotic…
We propose a model for nonlinearly elastic membranes undergoing finite deformations while confined to a regular frictionless surface in $\mathbb{R}^3$. This is a physically correct model of the analogy sometimes given to motivate harmonic…
We consider a chain of Euler-Bernoulli beams with spatial dependent mass density, modulus of elasticity and area moment which are interconnected in dissipative or conservative ways and prove uniform exponential energy decay of the coupled…
We investigate equilibria of charged deformable materials via the minimization of an electroelastic energy. This features the coupling of elastic response and electrostatics by means of a capacitary term, which is naturally defined in…
The subject of this paper is the study of the asymptotic behaviour of the equilibrium configurations of a nonlinearly elastic thin rod, as the diameter of the cross-section tends to zero. Convergence results are established assuming…
In this paper, the bending behaviour of small-scale Bernoulli-Euler beams is investigated by Eringen's two-phase local/nonlocal theory of elasticity. Bending moments are expressed in terms of elastic curvatures by a convex combination of…
In this paper, we investigate nonlinear stability of planar steady Euler flows related to least energy solutions of the Lane-Emden equation in a smooth bounded domain. We prove the orbital stability of these flows in terms of both the $L^s$…
A new energy functional for pure traction problems in elasticity has been deduced in [23] as the variational limit of nonlinear elastic energy functional for a material body subject to an equilibrated force field: a sort of Gamma limit with…
A generalization of the Euler's elastic problem, i.e., finding a stationary configuration (planar elastica) of the Bernoulli's thin ideal elastic rod with boundary conditions defined through fixed endpoints and/or tangents at the endpoints,…
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…
