Description

A hierarchy of classical plate models such as nonlinear bending theory, von Karman theory and linearized von Karman theory was derived from three-dimensional nonlinear elasticity by Gamma-convergence (see [2], [3]). The justification of the linear Timoshenko beam model and the Reissner-Mindlin plate model via Gamma-limit of the linear-elasticity model for a three-dimensional body was obtained in [1], [4]. We are looking for a way to justify the Timoshenko model by Gamma-convergence starting from a nonlinear model for a three-dimensional elastic body.
