Large Deflections of Beams, Arches and Panels in an Elastic Medium with Regard to Deformation Shifts

Abstract

© 2019, Pleiades Publishing, Ltd. The supercritical bending of arches in an elastic medium loaded with a lateral distributed load or concentrated force, including arches obtained by pre-bending by means of compressing a beam, is investigated. A resolving nonlinear equation is obtained, its analytical solution and numerical solutions are given.
