A mathematical model of suspension bridges. (English). Applications of Mathematics, vol. 49 (2004), issue 1, pp. 39-55
MSC: 35A35, 35B10, 35Q72, 70K30, 74H45, 74K10 | MR 2032147 | Zbl 1099.74037 | DOI: 10.1023/B:APOM.0000024519.46627.4f
Keywords:
suspension bridges; periodic solution; Galerkin approximation; Leray-Schauder principle
Summary:
We prove the existence of weak T-periodic solutions for a nonlinear mathematical model associated with suspension bridges. Under further assumptions a regularity result is also given.
