Abstract

We show that nonlinear plate theory arises as a Γ-limit of three-dimensional nonlinear elasticity. A key ingredient in the proof is a sharp rigidity estimate for maps ν : (0, 1)³ → ℝ³. We show that the L² distance of ∇ν from a single rotation is bounded by a multiple of the L² distance from the set SO(3) of all rotations.
