| Popis: | This paper focuses on the simultaneous homogenization and dimension reduction of periodic composite plates within the framework of non-linear elasticity. The composite plate in its reference (undeformed) configuration consists of a periodic perforated plate made of stiff material with holes filled by soft matrix material. The structure is clamped on a cylindrical part. Two cases of asymptotic analysis are considered: one without pre-strain and the other with matrix pre-strain. In both cases, the total elastic energy is in the von-K\'arm\'an (vK) regime ($\varepsilon^5$). A new splitting of the displacements is introduced to analyze the asymptotic behavior. The displacements are decomposed using the Kirchhoff-Love (KL) plate displacement decomposition. The use of a re-scaling unfolding operator allows for deriving the asymptotic behavior of the Green St. Venant's strain tensor in terms of displacements. The limit homogenized energy is shown to be of vK type with linear elastic cell problems, established using the $\Gamma$-convergence. Additionally, it is shown that for isotropic homogenized material, our limit vK plate is orthotropic. The derived results have practical applications in the design and analysis of composite structures. Comment: 42 pages, 3 figures |
