The Gamma limit of the simple shear problem in nonlinear Cosserat elasticity
arXiv:2302.09410
Abstract
The zero and first order Gamma-limit of vanishing internal length scale are studied for the mechanical energy of a shear problem in geometrically nonlinear Cosserat elasticity. The convergence of the minimizers is shown and the limit functionals are characterized.
