Asymptotic analysis for elliptic systems in a narrow region

Abstract

This paper is concerned with investigating the asymptotic behavior of the gradients of solutions to a class of elliptic systems with general boundary data, especially covering the Lamé systems, in a narrow region. The novelty of this paper lies in finding the correction term to improve the previous gradient estimates to be a precise asymptotic formula. Through this justification, we capture all singular terms and thus give a fairly sharp characterization in terms of the singularities of the gradients.
