Codice QDD 160 Titolo A partially hinged rectangular plate as a model for suspension bridges Data 2013-07-29 Autore/i Ferrero, A.; Gazzola, F. Link Download full text Abstract A plate model describing the statics and dynamics of a suspension bridge is suggested. A partially hinged plate subject to nonlinear restoring hangers is considered. The whole theory from linear problems, through nonlinear stationary equations, ending with the full hyperbolic evolution equation is studied. This paper aims to be the starting point for more refined models.
