The Generalized Fourier Series Method: Bending of Elastic Plates

By Christian Constanda and Dale Doty

Book Overview

The book presents and explains a general, efficient, and elegant method of approximate solution for boundary value problems for an elliptic system of partial differential equations arising in elasticity theory. The methodology for constructing generalized Fourier series based on the structure of the problem is shown in detail, and all the attending mathematical properties are derived with full rigor. A numerical scheme directly related to the series method is developed and employed to compute approximate solutions, illustrated by a variety of examples.
