Calculus of variations and homogenization

From MaRDI portal





This paper is a very interesting synthesis of results obtained by the authors from 1970. Many of them are well known, because they were presented in conferences and seminars, but they have not been published in this form until now. Proofs are not included. First part concerns the concept of generalized solutions and relaxation procedures applied to the derivation of the necessary optimality conditions in Pontryagin's principle. Rest of the paper deals with homogenization techniques (\(H\)-convergence of operators). An important well described application is to determine the properties of heterogeneous materials made of some basic materials. Another interesting and difficult application is related with an optimal design problem. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0870.00018].
