| contents | We study a variational model in nonlinear elasticity allowing for cavitation which penalizes both the volume and the perimeter of the cavities. Specifically, we investigate the approximation (in the sense of Γ-convergence) of the energy by means of functionals defined on perforated domains. Perforations are introduced at flaw points where singularities are expected and, hence, the corresponding deformations do not exhibit cavitation. Notably, those points are not prescribed but rather selected by the variational principle. Our analysis is motivated by the numerical simulation of cavitation and extends previous results on models which solely accounted for elastic energy but neglected contributions related to the formation of cavities. |
