Abstract (Original language)
Résumé

We obtain the energy functional of Reissner–Mindlin plates as the Γ-limit of a family of three-dimensional energy functionals within the framework of second-order linear elasticity. The choice of the family of functionals, as well as of the candidate limiting functional, is guided by a formal scaling argument.

Nous obtenons la fonctionnelle de l'énergie de plaques de Reissner–Mindlin comme la Γ-limite d'une famille de fonctionnelles d'énergie tri-dimensionnelles dans le cadre de l'élasticité linéaire du second ordre. Les choix de la famille de fonctionnelles et de la fonctionnelle limite sont suggérés par l'étude formelle des mises à l'échelle.
