Author:Fedotov, I; Fedotova, T; Shatalov, M; Tenkam, HMDate:Jul 2009The modelling of vibration problems is of great importance in engineering. A popular method of analysing such problems is the variational method. The simplest vibration model is represented using the example of a long rod. Two kinds of ...Read more

Author:Shatalov, M; Fedotov, I; Tenkam, HM; Fedotova, TDate:Sep 2010The conventional theory of the piezoelectric rod is based on an assumption that its lateral vibrations are negligible. In this case the rod, vibration could be described in terms of one-dimensional wave equation and a set of mechanical and ...Read more
