Abstract:

Measure-valued structured deformations are introduced to present a unified theory of deformations of continua. The energy associated with a measure-valued structured deformation is defined via relaxation departing either from energies associated with classical deformations or from energies associated with structured deformations. A concise integral representation of the energy functional is provided both in the unconstrained case and under Dirichlet conditions on a part of the boundary.

Keywords: relaxation, Integral representation, energy minimization, Structured deformations, functionals depending on measures
