چکیده
Let ω be an open connected subset of R2 and let θ be an immersion from ω into R3. It is first established that the set formed by all rigid displacements, i.e., that preserve the metric and the curvature, of the surface θ(ω) is a submanifold of dimension 6 and of class C∞ of the space H(ω). It is then shown that the vector space formed by all the infinitesimal rigid displacements of the surface θ(ω) is nothing but the tangent space at the origin to this submanifold. In this fashion, the “infinitesimal rigid displacement lemma on a surface”, which plays a key rôle in shell theory, is put in its proper perspective. Résumé Soit ω un ouvert connexe de R2 et soit θ une immersion de ω dans R3. On établit d’abord que l’ensemble formé par tous les déplacements rigides, c’est-à-dire ceux qui préservent la métrique et la courbure, de la surface θ(ω) est une sous-variété de dimension 6 et de classe C∞ de l’espace H(ω). On établit ensuite que l’espace vectoriel formé par tous les déplacements rigides infinitésimaux de la surface θ(ω) n’est autre que l’espace tangent à cette sous-variété à l’origine. De cette façon, le “lemme du déplacement rigide infinitésimal sur une surface”, qui joue un rôle important en théorie des coques, est placé en perspective.

متن کاملNumerical Analysis of Composite Beams under Impact by a Rigid Particle
Analysis of a laminated composite beam under impact by a rigid particle is investigated. The importance of this project is to simulate the impact of objects on small scale aerial structures. The stresses are considered uni- axial bending with no torsion loading. The first order shear deformation theory is used to simulate the beam. After obtaining kinematic and potential energy for a laminated ...
متن کاملAn Axisymmetric Contact Problem of a Thermoelastic Layer on a Rigid Circular Base
We study the thermoelastic deformation of an elastic layer. The upper surface of the medium is subjected to a uniform thermal field along a circular area while the layer is resting on a rigid smooth circular base. The doubly mixed boundary value problem is reduced to a pair of systems of dual integral equations. The both system of the heat conduction and the mechanical problems are calculated b...
متن کاملRocking Rotation of a Rigid Disk Embedded in a Transversely Isotropic Half-Space
The asymmetric problem of rocking rotation of a circular rigid disk embedded in a finite depth of a transversely isotropic half-space is analytically addressed. The rigid disk is assumed to be in frictionless contact with the elastic half-space. By virtue of appropriate Green's functions, the mixed boundary value problem is written as a dual integral equation. Employing further mathematical tec...
متن کاملAn Axisymmetric Torsion Problem of an Elastic Layer on a Rigid Circular Base
A solution is presented to a doubly mixed boundary value problem of the torsion of an elastic layer, partially resting on a rigid circular base by a circular rigid punch attached to its surface. This problem is reduced to a system of dual integral equations using the Boussinesq stress functions and the Hankel integral transforms. With the help of the Gegenbauer expansion formula of the Bessel f...
