GENERALIZED POINT MODELS IN STRUCTURAL MECHANICS

by Ivan V Andronov (St Petersburg University, Russia)

This book presents the idea of zero-range potentials and shows the limitations of the point models used in structural mechanics. It also offers specific examples from the theory of generalized functions, regularization of super-singular integral equations and other specifics of the boundary value problems for partial differential operators of the fourth order.


Contents:

  • Vibrations of Thin Elastic Plates and Classical Point Models
  • Operator Methods in Diffraction
  • Generalized Point Models
  • Discussions and Recommendations for Future Research


Readership: Graduate students and researchers in mathematical modeling and mechanical engineering.


“… the monograph contains a lot of results and impressive ideas in the field of mathematical hydroelasticity. It will be helpful for researchers and postgraduate students dealing with hydroelastic problems.”
