The journal Asymptotic Analysis fulfills a twofold function. It aims at publishing original mathematical results in the asymptotic theory of problems affected by the presence of small or large parameters on the one hand, and at giving specific indications of their possible applications to different fields of natural sciences on the other hand. 

Asymptotic Analysis thus provides mathematicians with a concentrated source of newly acquired information which they may need in the analysis of asymptotic problems.

Justification de l'optique géométrique faiblement non linéaire pour le problème mixte: Cas des concentrations

Authors: Sablè-Tougeron, Monique

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: We suggest a justification for all time of the formal development of geometric optics, for a conservative, genuinely nonlinear, initial-boundary value problem, in case of BV data with compact support and function of slow variables.

Limit behavior of a shell, when first the thickness approaches zero and then the shell becomes a plate

Authors: Lods, V.

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: We consider a shell, when first the thickness approaches zero and then the middle surface becomes flat. As noted by P.G. Ciarlet, the limit displacement obtained in this fashion is different from the limit displacement obtained when the shell becomes a plate first. Indeed, the ‘membrane’ and ‘bending’ effects both appear when first the shell becomes a plate, while only one of these effects appear when first the thickness approaches zero. This result is proved for shells with uniformly elliptic middle surfaces and for cylindrical shells.

Exact controllability and asymptotic limit for thin plates

Authors: Figueiredo, Isabel | Zuazua, Enrique

Article Type: Research Article

Abstract: We consider the exact controllability problem for a three-dimensional linear elastic thin plate, with thickness 2ε and a polygonal middle surface. Controls are imposed on the lateral surface and at the top and bottom of the plate. The asymptotic limit when ε→0 is computed. We obtain that the displacements converge to a controlled Kirchhoff–Love displacement, where the normal displacement satisfies the usual two-dimensional evolution equation for a linear plate, with controls on the boundary and in the interior of the plate.
