Asymptotic analysis of elastic curved rods

- 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.
