A property of the H-convergence for elasticity in perforated domains

Hamid Haddadou

Abstract:
In this article, we obtain the $H_{e}^{0}$-convergence as a limit case of the $H_{e}$-convergence. More precisely, if $\Omega_{\varepsilon}$ is a perforated domain with (admissible) holes $T_{\varepsilon}$ and $\chi_{\varepsilon}$ denote its characteristic function and if $(A^{\varepsilon},T_{\varepsilon}) \rightharpoonup A^{0}$, we show how the behavior as $(\varepsilon,\delta)\to(0,0)$ of the double sequence of tensors $A^{\varepsilon}_{\delta}=(\chi_{\varepsilon}
+\delta(1-\chi_{\varepsilon}))
A^{\varepsilon}$ is connected to $A^{0}$. These results extend those given by Cioranescu, Damlamian, Donato and Mascarenhas in [3] for the $H$-convergence of the scalar second elliptic operators to the linearized elasticity systems.
