Homogenization of periodic nonconvex integral functionals in terms of Young measures
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 15 December 2005
Abstract
Homogenization of periodic functionals, whose integrands possess possibly multi-well structure, is treated in terms of Young measures. More precisely, we characterize the Γ-limit of sequences of such functionals in the set of Young measures, extending the relaxation theorem of Kinderlherer and Pedregal. We also make precise the relationship between our homogenized density and the classical one.
