A Constructive Proof of Korn’s Scaled Inequalities for Shells

Research output: Journal Publications and ReviewsRGC 21 - Publication in refereed journalpeer-review

Abstract

One of Korn’s scaled inequalities for shells asserts that the H1-norm of a displacement field of a shell with thickness 2ε clamped on a portion of its lateral boundary, once scaled to a domain independent of ε, is bounded above by the L2-norm of the corresponding scaled infinitesimal strain tensor field multiplied by a constant of order ε−1 . We give a constructive proof to this inequality, and to other two inequalities of this type, which is thus different from the original proof of Ciarlet et al. [Arch. Rational Mech. Anal. 136 (1996), 163–190]. © 2025, Global Science Press. All rights reserved.
