## Abstract We consider in this work general curved rods with a circular cross‐section of radius __δ__. Our aim is to study the asymptotic behaviour of such rods as __δ__→0, in the framework of the linear elasticity according to the unfolding method. It consists in giving some decompositions of the

✦ Synopsis
Abstract
We consider a sequence of curved rods which consist of isotropic material and which are clamped on the lower base or on both bases. We study the asymptotic behaviour of the stress tensor and displacement under the assumptions of linearized elasticity when the cross‐sectional diameter of the rods tends to zero and the body force is given in the particular form. The analysis covers the case of a non‐smooth limit line of centroids. We show how the body force and the choice of the approximating curved rods can affect the strong convergence and the limit form of the stress tensor for the curved rods clamped on both bases.

## Abstract We indicate a new approach to the deformation of three‐dimensional curved rods with variable cross‐section. The model consists of a system of nine ordinary differential equations for which we prove existence and uniqueness via the coercivity of the association bilinear form. From the ge
We describe the asymptotic behaviour of the solution of a linear elastic problem posed in a domain of 1, with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions imposed on small zones of size less than distributed on the boundary of this domain, when the parameter goes to 0. We use epi-convergence arguments
## Abstract In this work we analyse the asymptotic behaviour of eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the linearized elasticity eigenvalue problem of curved rod‐like bodies with respect to the small thickness __ϵ__ of the rod. We show that the eigenfunctions and scaled eigenvalues converge, as __ϵ__ te
In this paper, the coupled longitudinal and lateral vibrations of a rectangular parallelepiped composed of a uniform, isotropic, elastic body are examined. The one-dimensional model for the body was developed by Green, Naghdi and several of their co-workers. It is based on a Cosserat or directed rod
