APPLICATION OF THE MODIFIED METHOD OF MULTIPLE SCALES TO THE BENDING PROBLEMS FOR CIRCULAR THIN PLATE AT VERY LARGE DEFLECTION ANDTHE ASYMPTOTICS OF SOLUTIONS (Ⅰ)

In this paper, the modified method of multiple scales is applied to study the bending problems for circular thin plate with large deflection under the hinged and simply supported edge conditions. Theseries solutions are constructed, the boundary layer effects are analysed and their asymptotics are proved.

APPLICATION OF THE MODIFIED METHOD OF MULTIPLE SCALES TO THE BENDING PROBLEMS FOR CIRCULAR THIN PLATE AT VERY LARGE DEFLECTION AND THE ASYMPTOTICS OF SOLUTIONS(Ⅱ)

This paper is a continuation of part (Ⅰ), on the asymptotics behaviors of the series solutions investigated in (Ⅰ). The remainder terms of the series solutions are estimated by the maximum norm.

THE METHOD OF MULTIPLE SCALES APPLIED TO THE NONLINEAR STABILITY PROBLEM OF A TRUNCATED SHALLOW SPHERICAL SHELL OF VARIABLE THICKNESS WITH THE LARGE GEOMETRICAL PARAMETER

Using the modified method of multiple scales, the nonlinear stability of a truncated shallow spherical shell of variable thickness with a nondeformable rigid body at the center under compound loads is investigated. When the geometrical parameter k is larger, the uniformly valid asymptotic solutions of this problem are obtained and the remainder terms are estimated.
