Abstract

We consider the variational problem which consists in minimizing the compliance of a prescribed amount of isotropic elastic material placed into a given design region when it is subjected to a given load. We perform the asymptotics of this problem when the design region is a straight cylinder with infinitesimal cross section. The results presented in this Note concern the pure torsion regime and state the existence of optimal shapes for the limit problem. When the filling ratio tends in turn to zero, these optimal shapes concentrate on the boundary of the Cheeger set of the section of the design region.
