Variational dimension reduction in nonlinear elasticity: a Young measure approach
نویسندگان
چکیده
Starting form 3D elasticity, we deduce the variational limit of the string and of the membrane on the space of one and two-dimensional gradient Young measures, respectively. The physical requirement that the energy becomes infinite when the volume locally vanishes is taken into account in the string model. The rate at which the energy density blows up characterizes the effective domain of the limit energy. The limit problem uniquely determines the energy density of the thin structure.

A 3D-1D Young measure theory of an elastic string
A variational limit defined on the space of one-dimensional Young measures is obtained from three-dimensional elasticity via dimension reduction. The physical requirement that the energy becomes infinite when the volume locally vanishes is taken into account. The rate at which it blows up characterizes the domain of the limit energy. The obtained limit problem uniquely determines the energy den...
متن کاملThe energy density of martensitic thin films via dimension reduction
A variational limit defined on the space of bi-dimensional gradient Young measures is obtained from three-dimensional elasticity via dimension reduction. The obtained limit problem uniquely determines the energy density of the thin film. Our result might be used to compute the microstructure in membranes made of phase transforming material.
متن کاملAn assessment of a semi analytical AG method for solving two-dimension nonlinear viscous flow
In this investigation, attempts have been made to solve two-dimension nonlinear viscous flow between slowly expanding or contracting walls with weak permeability by utilizing a semi analytical Akbari Ganji's Method (AGM). As regard to previous papers, solving of nonlinear equations is difficult and the results are not accurate. This new approach is emerged after comparing the achieved solutions...
متن کاملAnalysis of Microstructures and Phase Transition Phenomena in One-Dimensional, Non-Linear Elasticity by Convex Optimization
We propose a general method to determine the theoretical microstructure in one dimensional elastic bars whose internal deformation energy is given by non-convex polynomials. We use non-convex variational principles and Young measure theory to describe the optimal energetic configuration of the body. By using convex analysis and classical characterizations of algebraic moments, we can formulate ...
متن کاملA quasistatic evolution model for perfectly plastic plates derived by Γ-convergence
The rigorous derivation of lower dimensional models for thin structures is a question of great interest in mechanics and its applications. In the early 90’s a rigorous approach to dimension reduction has emerged in the stationary framework and in the context of nonlinear elasticity. This approach is based on Γ-convergence and, starting from the seminal paper [3, 4], has led to establish a hiera...
