Lower semicontinuity of nonlocal energies on
Jose Matias, Pedro M. Santos, Elvira Zappale
We characterize the lower-semicontinuity of nonlocal one-dimensional energies of the type \[{\rm ess}\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\sup_{(s,t) \in I\times I} h([u](s), [u](t)),\] where is an…
Integral representation for a relaxed optimal design problem for non-simple grade two materials
Ana Cristina Barroso, Elvira Zappale
A measure representation result for a functional modelling optimal design problems for plastic deformations, under linear growth conditions, is obtained. Departing from an energy w…
Homogenization of non-convex integral energies with Orlicz growth via periodic unfolding
Joel Fotso Tachago, Guiliano Gargiulo, Hubert Nnang +1
The periodic unfolding method is extended to the Orlicz setting and used to prove a homogenization result for non-convex integral energies defined on vector-valued configurations i…
Junction in a thin multi-domain for nonsimple grade two materials in BH
Rita Ferreira, José Matias, Elvira Zappale
We consider a thin multi-domain of , with , consisting of a vertical rod upon a horizontal disk. In this thin multi-domain, we introduce a bulk energy density…
A Global Method for Relaxation for Multi-levelled Structured Deformations
Ana Cristina Barroso, José Matias, Elvira Zappale
We prove an integral representation result for a class of variational functionals appearing in the framework of hierarchical systems of structured deformations via a global method…
Asymptotic analysis of a clamped thin multidomain allowing for fractures and discontinuities
G. Carvalho, J. Matias, E. Zappale
We consider a thin multidomain of consisting of a vertical rod upon a horizontal disk. The equilibrium configurations of the thin hyperelastic multidomain, allowing…
