Abstract: We prove a homogenization result for Mumford-Shah-type energies associated to a brittle composite material with weak inclusions distributed periodically at a scale varepsilon>0. The matrix and the inclusions in the material have the same elastic moduli but very different toughness moduli, with the ratio of the toughness modulus in the matrix and in the inclusions being , with small. We show that the high-contrast behaviour of the composite leads to the emergence of interesting effects in the limit: The volume and surface energy densities interact by Gamma-convergence, and the limit volume energy is not a quadratic form in the critical scaling , unlike the varepsilon-energies, and unlike the extremal limit cases.
