We present a Korn-type inequality in a planar setting for special functions of bounded deformation. We prove that for each function in [Formula: see text] with a sufficiently small jump set the distance of the function and its derivative from an infinitesimal rigid motion can be controlled in terms of the linearized elastic strain outside of a small exceptional set of finite perimeter. Particularly, the result shows that each function in [Formula: see text] has bounded variation away from an arbitrarily small part of the domain.

Functions of bounded deformation (BD) arise naturally in the study of fracture and damage in a geometrically linear context. They are related to functions of bounded variation (BV), but are less well understood. We discuss here the relation to BV under additional regularity assumptions, which may require the regular part of the strain to have higher integrability or the jump set to have finite area or the Cantor part to vanish. On the positive side, we prove that BD functions that are piecewise affine on a Caccioppoli partition are in GSBV, and we prove that SBDp functions are approximately continuous -almost everywhere away from the jump set. On the negative side, we construct a function that is BD but not in BV and has distributional strain consisting only of a jump part, and one that has a distributional strain consisting of only a Cantor part.

We provide a variational approximation for quasiconvex energies defined on vector valued special functions with bounded variation. We extend the Ambrosio–Tortorelli's construction to the vectorial case.

We prove that the Ciarlet–Nečas non-interpenetration of matter condition can be extended to the case of deformations of hyperelastic brittle materials belonging to the class of special functions of bounded variation (SBV), and can be taken into account for some variational models in fracture mechanics. In order to formulate such a condition, we define the deformed configuration under an SBV map by means of the approximately differentiable representative, and we prove some connected stability results under weak convergence. We provide an application to the case of brittle Ogden materials.

We show that the limit of a class of discrete energies defined on one-dimensional lattices of step size ε when ε→0 define a continuum energy with a local and a non-local term with domain a subspace of the special functions of bounded variation.
