Description for Variational and Quasi-variational Inequalities in Mechanics
Hardback. Aims to consider a wide set of problems arising in the mathematical modeling of mechanical systems under unilateral constraints. This title provides the necessary mathematical tools including local boundary value problem formulations, and construction of variational equations and inequalities and their transition to minimization problems. Series: Solid Mechanics and its Applications. Num Pages: 350 pages, biography. BIC Classification: TBC; TGB. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 19. Weight in Grams: 712.
The variational method is a powerful tool to investigate states and processes in technical devices, nature, living organisms, systems, and economics. The power of the variational method consists in the fact that many of its sta- ments are physical or natural laws themselves. The essence of the variational approach for the solution of problems rel- ing to the determination of the real state of systems or processes consists in thecomparisonofclosestates.Theselectioncriteriafortheactualstatesmust be such that all the equations and conditions of the mathematical model are satis?ed. Historically, the ?rst variational theory was the Lagrange theory created to investigate the equilibrium of ?nite-dimensional ... Read more

Reviews for Variational and Quasi-variational Inequalities in Mechanics
From the reviews: "The main idea of the presented monograph is to deal with mathematical models connected with mechanical systems under unilateral constraints. … Examples of analytical and numerical solutions are presented. Numerical solutions were obtained using the finite element and boundary element methods. … The text contains a big amount of latest results achieved ... Read more
