where Ω is an open bounded set of R and W and V are two non-negative continuous functions vanishing at α, β and α, β, respectively. In the previous functional, we fix a = 2 − p and u is a scalar density function, Tu denotes its trace on ∂Ω, d(x, ∂Ω) stands for the distance function to the boundary ∂Ω. We show that the singular limit of the energies Fε leads to a coupled problem of bulk and surf...
