Jean Carlos Nakasato, Marcone Corrêa Pereira · arXiv (Cornell University) · 2018
In this paper we study the asymptotic behavior of the solutions of a class of nonlinear elliptic problems posed in a 2-dimensional domain that degenerates into a line segment (a thin domain) when a positive parameter $\varepsilon$ goes to zero. We also allow high oscillating behavior on the upper boundary of the thin domain as $\varepsilon \to 0$. Combining methods from classic homogenization theory for reticulated structures and monotone operators we obtain the homogenized equation proving convergence of the solutions and establishing a corrector function which guarantees strong convergence in $W^{1,p}$ for $1
