Long-term stability of cylindrical shells of viscoelastic composites
On the grounds of Hamilton's principle the system of linear integral equations has been obtained for the solution of stability problems of cylindrical shells made of viscoelastic composite materials by the finite element method.

Theory of Generalized Canonical Transformations for Birkhoff Systems
Transformation is an important means to study problems in analytical mechanics. It is often difficult to solve dynamic equations, and the use of variable transformation can make the equations easier to solve. The theory of canonical transformations plays

Hamiltonian variational principles have provided, since the 1960s, the means of developing very successful wave theories for nonlinear free-surface flows, under the assumption of irrotationality.

Hypercontractivity of Hamilton–Jacobi equations
Using the equivalence of logarithmic Sobolev inequalities and hypercontractivity of the associated heat semigroup proved by \textit{L. Gross} [Am. J. Math. 97(1975), 1061--1083 (1976; Zbl 0318.46049)], the authors show that logarithmic Sobolev inequalities are similarly related to hypercontractivity of the solutions of Hamilton-Jacobi equations.

Symmetries of the Hamilton–Jacobi equation [PDF]
We present a detailed discussion of the infinit esimal symmetries of the Hamilton-Jacobi equation (an arbitrary first order partial equation) Our presentation clucidates the role played by the characteristic system in determining the symmetries. We then specialize to the case of a free particle in one space and one time dimension, and study of local ...

Passivity Analysis of Nonlinear Euler-Bernoulli Beams [PDF]
The Lagrangian equations for distributed-parameter systems based on Hamilton's principle are developed. These equations are subsequently used to derive nonlinear models for beams. The passivity properties of the flexible mechanical systems based on their

Hamilton Jacobi Equations with Obstacles [PDF]
We consider a problem in the theory of optimal control proposed for the first time by Bressan. We characterize the associated minimum time function using tools from geometric measure theory and we obtain, as a corollary, an existence theorem for a related variational problem.

Hamilton’s gradient estimates and Liouville theorems for porous medium equations
Let ( M n , g ) $(M^{n}, g)$ be an n-dimensional Riemannian manifold. In this paper, we derive a local gradient estimate for positive solutions of the porous medium equation u t = Δ ( u p ) , 1 < p < 1 + 1 n − 1 , $$u_{t}=\Delta\bigl(u^{p}\bigr),\quad 1<

New Analytical Model Used in Finite Element Analysis of Solids Mechanics
In classical mechanics, determining the governing equations of motion using finite element analysis (FEA) of an elastic multibody system (MBS) leads to a system of second order differential equations.
