Abstract: The question of stability of equilibrium of a general rectangular, nonuniform density membrane adjacent to a supersonic airstream arbitrarily directed with respect to the edges of the membrane ...

Abstract: Singular value analysis is used to develop eigenvalue and eigenvector trends for beams supported by periodically-spaced, elastic elements. These trends are illustrated for both straight and bent ...

Abstract: The stability of equilibrium of an arbitrarily shaped, multiply connected, nonuniform-density, plane membrane adjacent to a supersonic airstream is studied using the direct method of Liapunov. In ...
