The Equivalencce of Darmois-Israel- and Distributional-method for Thin Shells in General Relativity
نویسندگان
چکیده
A distributional method to solve the Einstein’s field equations for thin shells is formulated. The familiar field equations and jump conditions of DarmoisIsrael formalism are derived. A carefull analysis of the Bianchi identities shows that, for cases under consideration, they make sense as distributions and lead to jump conditions of Darmois-Israel formalism.

Junctions and thin shells in general relativity using computer algebra I: The Darmois-Israel Formalism
We present the GRjunction package which allows boundary surfaces and thin-shells in general relativity to be studied with a computer algebra system. Implementing the Darmois-Israel thin shell formalism requires a careful selection of definitions and algorithms to ensure that results are generated in a straight-forward way. We have used the package to correctly reproduce a wide variety of exampl...
متن کاملJunctions and thin shells in general relativity using computer algebra: II. The null formalism
We present extensions to the GRJunction computer algebra program, which allow the study of null boundary surfaces and thin shells in general relativity. We summarize the null formalism due to Barrabès and Israel and highlight those steps which differ from the timelike/spacelike cases. GRJunction has been used to verify a number of results from the literature. We then present two new results cal...
متن کاملBarotropic thin shells with linear EOS as models of stars and circumstellar shells in general relativity
The spherically symmetric thin shells of the barotropic fluids with the linear equation of state are considered within the frameworks of general relativity. We study several aspects of the shells as completely relativistic models of stars, first of all the neutron stars and white dwarfs, and circumstellar shells. The exact equations of motion of the shells are obtained. Also we calculate the pa...

A null thin shell immersed in a generic spherically symmetric space-time is studied within the distributional formalism. It has been shown that the distributional formalism leads to the same result as the conventional Barrabes-Israel formalism.
متن کاملInvestigation of Axial to Lateral Load ratio on the Buckling of Thin Orthotropic Cylindrical Shells
Buckling analysis of thin cylindrical shells is very important due to their production process. Usually longitudinal and transversal stiffeners are used to increase the buckling stiffness. In this paper, considering a thin cylindrical shell with longitudinal and transversal ribs subjected to axial force and lateral pressure, the influence of different aspect of axial force to lateral pressure ...
