On global and local minimizers of prestrained thin elastic rods

Marco Cicalese, Matthias Ruf, Francesco Solombrino

We study the stable configurations of a thin three-dimensional weakly prestrained rod subject to a terminal load as the thickness of the section vanishes. By $Γ$ -convergence we der…

Chirality transitions in frustrated $S^{2}$ -valued spin systems

Marco Cicalese, Matthias Ruf, Francesco Solombrino

We study the discrete-to-continuum limit of the helical XY $S^{2}$ -spin system on the lattice $Z^{2}$ . We scale the interaction parameters in order to reduce the model to…
