Abstract: In this paper we prove asymptotically sharp weighted "first-and-a-half" 2D Korn and Korn-like inequalities with a singular weight occurring from Cartesian to cylindrical change of variables. We prove some Hardy and the so-called "harmonic function gradient separation" inequalities with the same singular weight. Then we apply the obtained 2D inequalities to prove similar inequalities for washers with thickness h subject to vanishing Dirichlet boundary conditions on the inner and outer thin faces of the washer. A washer can be regarded in two ways: As the limit case of a conical shell when the slope goes to zero, or as a very short hollow cylinder. While the optimal Korn constant in the first Korn inequality for a conical shell with thickness h and with a positive slope scales like h1.5 e.g. [10], the optimal Korn constant in the first Korn inequality for a washer scales like h2 and depends only on the outer radius of the washer as we show in the present work. The Korn constant in the first and a half inequality scales like h and depends only on h. The optimal Korn constant is realized by a Kirchoff Ansatz. This results can be applied to calculate the critical buckling load of a washer under in plane loads, e.g. [1].
