Pointwise and spectral control of plate vibrations.

Alain Haraux, Stéphane Jaffard (1991)

Revista Matemática Iberoamericana

We consider the problem of controlling pointwise (by means of a time dependent Dirac measure supported by a given point) the motion of a vibrating plate Ω. Under general boundary conditions, including the special cases of simply supported or clamped plates, but of course excluding the cases where multiple eigenvalues exist for the biharmonic operator, we show the controlability of finite linear combinations of the eigenfunctions at any point of Ω where no eigenfunction vanishes at any time greater...

Post-buckling range of plates in axial compression with uncertain initial geometric imperfections

Ivan Hlaváček (2002)

Applications of Mathematics

The method of reliable solutions alias the worst scenario method is applied to the problem of von Kármán equations with uncertain initial deflection. Assuming two-mode initial and total deflections and using Galerkin approximations, the analysis leads to a system of two nonlinear algebraic equations with one or two uncertain parameters-amplitudes of initial deflections. Numerical examples involve (i) minimization of lower buckling loads and (ii) maximization of the maximal mean reduced stress.
