Dynamics Of Solid Structures

Download or read book Dynamics of Solid Structures written by Georgy Viktorovich Kostin and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2017-11-20 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph covers new variational and projection methods to study the dynamics within solid structures. To cope with the underlying initial-boundary value problems, the method of integrodifferential relations is employed. Applications and examples in physics, mechanics and control engineering range from natural vibrations or forced motions of elastic and viscoelastic bodies to heat and mass transfer processes. Contents Generalized formulations of parabolic and hyperbolic problems Variational principles in linear elasticity Variational statements in structural mechanics Ritz method for initial-boundary value problems Variational and projection techniques with semi-discretization Integrodifferential approach to eigenvalue problems Spatial vibrations of elastic beams with convex cross-sections Double minimization in optimal control problems Semi-discrete approximations in inverse dynamic problems Modeling and control in mechatronics
