Closed geodesics for the Jacobi metric and periodic solutions of prescribed energy of natural hamiltonian systems
Partant du principe de conservation de la masse et du principe fondamental de la dynamique, on retrouve l'équation d'Euler nous permettant de décrire les modèles asymptotiques de propagation d'ondes dans des eaux peu profondes en dimension 1. Pour décrire la propagation des ondes en dimension 2, Kadomtsev et Petviashvili [ 15 (1970) 539] utilisent une perturbation linéaire de l'équation de KdV. Mais cela ne précise pas si les équations ainsi obtenues dérivent de l'équation d'Euler, c'est ce que...
In the present paper, the existence of a weak time-periodic solution to the nonlinear telegraph equation with the Dirichlet boundary conditions is proved. No “smallness” assumptions are made concerning the function . The main idea of the proof relies on the compensated compactness theory.
A symmetric N-string is a network of N ≥ 2 sections of string tied together at one common mobile extremity. In their equilibrium position, the sections of string form N angles of 2π/N at their junction point. Considering the initial and boundary value problem for small-amplitude oscillations perpendicular to the plane of the N-string at rest, we obtain conditions under which the solution will be periodic with an integral period.
We consider nonlinearly coupled string-beam equations modelling time-periodic oscillations in suspension bridges. We prove the existence of a unique solution under suitable assumptions on certain parameters of the bridge.
