Lectures on Three-Dimensional Elasticity
by P. G. Ciarlet
Publisher: Tata Institute of Fundamental Research 1983
ISBN/ASIN: 0387123318
ISBN-13: 9780387123318
Number of pages: 135
Description:
In this book a non-linear system of partial differential equations will be established as a mathematical model of elasticity. An energy functional will be established and it will be seen that the equations of equilibrium can be obtained as the Euler equations starting from the energy functional. Existence results will be studied.
