Abstract: In this paper, we derive a dimensionally reduced model for a thin film prestrained with a given incompatible Riemannian metric: G^h(x',x_3)=I_3+2h^{gamma},S(x')+2h^{gamma/2},x_3B(x')+h.o.t, ,,,gamma>2, where 0<hll1 is the thickness of the film. The problem is studied rigorously by using a variational approach and establishing the Gamma-convergence of the non-Euclidean version of the nonlinear elasticity functional. It is shown that the residual nonlinear elastic energy scales as O(hgamma+2) as ho0.
