The composite is obtained by introducing into an infinite homogeneous matrix a periodic set of inclusions of a different material. The diameter of each inclusion is assumed to be proportional to a positive real parameter \\epsilon. Under suitable assumptions, we show that the effective conductivity can be continued real analytically in the parameter \\epsilon around the degenerate value \\epsilon=0, in correspondence of which the inclusions collapse to points.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2013-06-26T09:17:21.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "35J25", "31B10", "45A05", "74E30", "74G10", "74M15" ], "keywords": [ "singularly perturbed non-ideal transmission problem", "effective conductivity", "periodic composite", "application", "thermal resistance" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2013arXiv1306.6176D" } } }
