An atomistic derivation of von-Kármán plate theory
Abstract
We derive von-Kármán plate theory from three dimensional, purely atomistic models with classical particle interaction. This derivation is established as a $Γ$-limit when considering the limit where the interatomic distance $\varepsilon$ as well as the thickness of the plate $h$ tend to zero. In particular, our analysis includes the ultrathin case where $\varepsilon \sim h$, leading to a new von-Kármán plate theory for finitely many layers.
