Asymptotic behavior of an elastic beam fixed on a small part of one of   its extremities
  We study the asymptotic behavior of the solution of an anisotropic, heterogeneous, linearized elasticity problem in a cylinder whose diameter $\epsilon$ tends to zero. The cylinder is assumed to be fixed (homogeneous Dirichlet boundary condition) on the whole of one of its extremities, but only on a small part (of size $\epsilon r^\epsilon$) of the second one; the Neumann boundary condition is assumed on the remainder of the boundary. We show that the result depends on $r^\epsilon$, and that there are 3 critical sizes, namely $r^\epsilon=\epsilon^3$, $r^\epsilon=\epsilon$, and $r^\epsilon=\epsilon^{1/3}$, and in total 7 different regimes. We also prove a corrector result for each behavior of $r^\epsilon$.
