In this paper we study the homogenization of the system of partial differential equations describing the quasistatic shearing of heterogeneous thermoviscoplastic materials. We first prove the existence and uniqueness of the solution of the system for the general model. We then define “stable by homogenization” models as the models where the equations in both the heterogeneous problems and the h...

There are very real limitations to any discussion of Jacques Lacan’s complex and voluminous commentary on Plato’s Symposium, not least in a paper of this length. The sheer number of connections that Lacan makes cannot be fully dealt with, nor can any particular point of interest be exhaustively discovered without drawing other issues into the fold. Nevertheless, what I have presented in this di...

This comment sets out how the application of a predomina...
