Abstract: A general method is presented for the solution of dynamic boundary-value problems of elastic plates subjected to time-dependent normal surface loads and/or time-dependent boundary conditions. As ...

Abstract: An analytical study of the plane-strain dynamic response of a circular, cylindrical shell is presented. The shell is subjected to a radially directed concentrated impulse acting on its surface. ...

Abstract: This investigation considers the dynamic response of a thin, elastic spherical shell surrounded by a large body of fluid. The blast pressure is applied to the internal shell surface, and three ...

Abstract: A formalism is presented for the solution of supported plates of bounded extent, subjected to time-dependent transverse forces and boundary conditions. Initially, and during the course of the ...

Abstract: A radially directed load is suddenly applied to a portion of the outer surface of a circular cylindrical shell which responds in a state of plane strain. An analytical solution for the ...

Abstract: The response of an infinite plate strip under an arbitrarily distributed transverse moving line load is determined. The line of application of the load is perpendicular to the infinite edges, ...
