We describe the limiting models obtained for different scalings of the energy. In particular, we prove that the limit functional corresponding to higher scalings coincides with the one derived by dimension reduction starting from linearized elasticity. Finally we also address the case of thin elastic rings.25 pagesMathematical PhysicsAnalysis of PDEs74K10; 49J45Asymptotic models for curved rods derived from nonlinear elasticity by Gamma-convergencetext
