3D-2D analysis of a thin film with periodic microstructure
arXiv:math/0604566
Abstract
The purpose of this article is to study the behavior of a heterogeneous thin film whose microstructure oscillates on a scale that is comparable to that of the thickness of the domain. The argument is based on a 3D-2D dimensional reduction through a -convergence analysis, techniques of two-scale convergence and a decoupling procedure between the oscillating variable and the in-plane variable.
