EnglishThis article is devoted to the study of the asymptotic behavior of a class of energies defined on stochastic lattices. Under polynomial growth assumptions, we prove that the energy functionals stored in the deformation of an ε-scaling of a stochastic lattice Γ -converge to a continuous energy functional when ε goes to zero. In particular, the limiting energy functional is of integral type, and deterministic if the lattice is ergodic. We also generalize, to systems and nonlinear settings, well-known results on stochastic homogenization of discrete elliptic equations. As an application of the main result, we prove the convergence of a discrete model for rubber towards the nonlinear theory of continuum mechanics. We finally address some mechanical properties of the limiting models, such as frame-invariance, isotropy and natural states.

| Abstract: | This article is devoted to the study of the asymptotic behavior of a class of energies defined on stochastic lattices. Under polynomial growth assumptions, we prove that the energy functionals stored in the deformation of an ε-scaling of a stochastic lattice Γ -converge to a continuous energy functional when ε goes to zero. In particular, the limiting energy functional is of integral type, and deterministic if the lattice is ergodic. We also generalize, to systems and nonlinear settings, well-known results on stochastic homogenization of discrete elliptic equations. As an application of the main result, we prove the convergence of a discrete model for rubber towards the nonlinear theory of continuum mechanics. We finally address some mechanical properties of the limiting models, such as frame-invariance, isotropy and natural states. |
