Gamma-limit analysis of thin incompressible magnetoelastic shallow shells
What the study found The study characterizes the asymptotic behaviour of a thin incompressible magnetoelastic shallow shell using Γ-convergence, a mathematical notion for describing limiting behavior of variational problems. The compactness result is obtained up to rigid motions. Why the authors say this matters The authors state that the result generalizes a previous work by…
