Two-mode bifurcation in solution of a perturbed nonlinear fourth order differential equation
In this paper, we are interested in the study of bifurcation solutions of nonlinear wave equation of elastic beams located on elastic foundations with small perturbation by using local method of Lyapunov-Schmidt.We showed that the bifurcation equation corresponding to the elastic beams equation is given by the nonlinear system of two equations. Also, we found the parameters equation of the Discriminant set of the specified problem as well as the bifurcation diagram.
Two-scale convergence with respect to measures in continuum mechanics
Two-scale div-curl lemma
The div-curl lemma, one of the basic results of the theory of compensated compactness of Murat and Tartar, does not take over to the case in which the two factors two-scale converge in the sense of Nguetseng. A suitable modification of the differential operators however allows for this extension. The argument follows the lines of a well-known paper of F. Murat of 1978, and uses a two-scale extension of the Fourier transform. This result is also extended to time-dependent functions, and is applied...
Two-scale homogenization for a model in strain gradient plasticity
Using the tool of two-scale convergence, we provide a rigorous mathematical setting for the homogenization result obtained by Fleck and Willis [J. Mech. Phys. Solids 52 (2004) 1855–1888] concerning the effective plastic behaviour of a strain gradient composite material. Moreover, moving from deformation theory to flow theory, we prove a convergence result for the homogenization of quasistatic evolutions in the presence of isotropic linear hardening.

Two-sided bounds of eigenvalues of second- and fourth-order elliptic operators
This article presents an idea in the finite element methods (FEMs) for obtaining two-sided bounds of exact eigenvalues. This approach is based on the combination of nonconforming methods giving lower bounds of the eigenvalues and a postprocessing technique using conforming finite elements. Our results hold for the second and fourth-order problems defined on two-dimensional domains. First, we list analytic and experimental results concerning triangular and rectangular nonconforming elements which...
