Abstract

In this paper, we derive nonlinearly elastic membrane plate models for hyperelastic incompressible materials using Γ-convergence arguments. We obtain an integral representation of the limit two-dimensional internal energy owing to a result of singular functionals relaxation due to Ben Belgacem [6].
