Behaviour of the first eigenvalue of the p-Laplacian in a domain with a hole

M. Sango (2001)

Colloquium Mathematicae

We investigate the behaviour of a sequence λ s , s = 1,2,..., of eigenvalues of the Dirichlet problem for the p-Laplacian in the domains Ω s , s = 1,2,..., obtained by removing from a given domain Ω a set E s whose diameter vanishes when s → ∞. We estimate the deviation of λ s from the eigenvalue of the limit problem. For the derivation of our results we construct an appropriate asymptotic expansion for the sequence of solutions of the original eigenvalue problem.

Bloch wave homogenization of linear elasticity system

Sista Sivaji Ganesh, Muthusamy Vanninathan (2005)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

In this article, the homogenization process of periodic structures is analyzed using Bloch waves in the case of system of linear elasticity in three dimensions. The Bloch wave method for homogenization relies on the regularity of the lower Bloch spectrum. For the three dimensional linear elasticity system, the first eigenvalue is degenerate of multiplicity three and hence existence of such a regular Bloch spectrum is not guaranteed. The aim here is to develop all necessary spectral tools to overcome...

Boundary layer correctors and generalized polarization tensor for periodic rough thin layers. A review for the conductivity problem

Clair Poignard (2012)

ESAIM: Proceedings

We study the behaviour of the steady-state voltage potential in a material composed of a two-dimensional object surrounded by a rough thin layer and embedded in an ambient medium. The roughness of the layer is supposed to be εα–periodic, ε being the magnitude of the mean thickness of the layer, and α a positive parameter describing the degree of roughness. For ε tending to zero, we determine the appropriate boundary layer correctors which lead to approximate transmission conditions equivalent to...

Boundary layer tails in periodic homogenization

Grégoire Allaire, Micol Amar (2010)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

This paper focus on the properties of boundary layers in periodic homogenization in rectangular domains which are either fixed or have an oscillating boundary. Such boundary layers are highly oscillating near the boundary and decay exponentially fast in the interior to a non-zero limit that we call boundary layer tail. The influence of these boundary layer tails on interior error estimates is emphasized. They mainly have two effects (at first order with respect to the period ε): first, they add...

Bounds and estimates on the effective properties for nonlinear composites

Peter Wall (2000)

Applications of Mathematics

In this paper we derive lower bounds and upper bounds on the effective properties for nonlinear heterogeneous systems. The key result to obtain these bounds is to derive a variational principle, which generalizes the variational principle by P. Ponte Castaneda from 1992. In general, when the Ponte Castaneda variational principle is used one only gets either a lower or an upper bound depending on the growth conditions. In this paper we overcome this problem by using our new variational principle...

Bounds and numerical results for homogenized degenerated p -Poisson equations

Johan Byström, Jonas Engström, Peter Wall (2004)

Applications of Mathematics

In this paper we derive upper and lower bounds on the homogenized energy density functional corresponding to degenerated p -Poisson equations. Moreover, we give some non-trivial examples where the bounds are tight and thus can be used as good approximations of the homogenized properties. We even present some cases where the bounds coincide and also compare them with some numerical results.
