A study of an operator arising in the theory of circular plates

Leopold Herrmann (1988)

Aplikace matematiky

The operator L 0 : D L 0 H H , L 0 u = 1 r d d r r d d r 1 r d d r r d u d r , D L 0 = { u C 4 ( [ 0 , R ] ) , u ' ( 0 ) = u ' ' ' ' ( 0 ) = 0 , u ( R ) = u ' ( R ) = 0 } , H = L 2 , r ( 0 , R ) is shown to be essentially self-adjoint, positive definite with a compact resolvent. The conditions on L 0 (in fact, on a general symmetric operator) are given so as to justify the application of the Fourier method for solving the problems of the types L 0 u = g and u t t + L 0 u = g , respectively.

A study of bending waves in infinite and anisotropic plates

Ove Lindblom, Reinhold Näslund, Lars-Erik Persson, Karl-Evert Fällström (1997)

Applications of Mathematics

In this paper we present a unified approach to obtain integral representation formulas for describing the propagation of bending waves in infinite plates. The general anisotropic case is included and both new and well-known formulas are obtained in special cases (e.g. the classical Boussinesq formula). The formulas we have derived have been compared with experimental data and the coincidence is very good in all cases.
