[La théorie Föppl–von Kármán des plaques comme Γ-limite de l'élasticité non linéaire]
Comptes Rendus. Mathématique, Tome 335 (2002) no. 2, pp. 201-206.

Nous montrons que la théorie Föppl–von Kármán des plaques émerge comme Γ-limite de la théorie de l'élasticité tridimensionnelle. La démonstration repose sur une generalisation aux derivées d'ordre supérieur de notre résultat de rigidité [5] que pour des fonctions v:(0,1) 3 3 , la distance L2 de ∇v à une rotation est bornée par un multiple de la distance L2 à l'ensemble SO(3) des rotations.

We show that the Föppl–von Kármán theory arises as a low energy Γ-limit of three-dimensional nonlinear elasticity. A key ingredient in the proof is a generalization to higher derivatives of our rigidity result [5] that for maps v:(0,1) 3 3 , the L2 distance of ∇v from a single rotation is bounded by a multiple of the L2 distance from the set SO(3) of all rotations.
