Spatial heterogeneity in 3D-2D dimensional reduction

Jean-François Babadjian, Gilles A. Francfort (2010)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

A justification of heterogeneous membrane models as zero-thickness limits of a cylindral three-dimensional heterogeneous nonlinear hyperelastic body is proposed in the spirit of Le Dret (1995). Specific characterizations of the 2D elastic energy are produced. As a generalization of Bouchitté (2002), the case where external loads induce a density of bending moment that produces a Cosserat vector field is also investigated. Throughout, the 3D-2D dimensional reduction is viewed as a problem...

On a model of rotating superfluids

Sylvia Serfaty (2010)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

We consider an energy-functional describing rotating superfluids at a rotating velocity , and prove similar results as for the Ginzburg-Landau functional of superconductivity: mainly the existence of branches of solutions with vortices, the existence of a critical above which energy-minimizers have vortices, evaluations of the minimal energy as a function of , and the derivation of a limiting free-boundary problem.

A compactness result for a second-order variational discrete model

Andrea Braides, Anneliese Defranceschi, Enrico Vitali (2012)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

Similarity:

We analyze a nonlinear discrete scheme depending on second-order finite differences. This is the two-dimensional analog of a scheme which in one dimension approximates a free-discontinuity energy proposed by Blake and Zisserman as a higher-order correction of the Mumford and Shah functional. In two dimension we give a compactness result showing that the continuous problem approximating this difference scheme is still defined on special functions with bounded hessian, and we give an upper...

Line-energy Ginzburg-Landau models : zero-energy states

Pierre-Emmanuel Jabin, Felix Otto, BenoÎt Perthame (2002)

Annali della Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa - Classe di Scienze

Similarity:

We consider a class of two-dimensional Ginzburg-Landau problems which are characterized by energy density concentrations on a one-dimensional set. In this paper, we investigate the states of vanishing energy. We classify these zero-energy states in the whole space: They are either constant or a vortex. A bounded domain can sustain a zero-energy state only if the domain is a disk and the state a vortex. Our proof is based on specific entropies which lead to a kinetic formulation, and...
