- Description:
- In this thesis, we study the transverse displacement of a multi-layered beam. The beam is made up of three layers. The middle layer has hysteresis while the outer layers are elastic. The equation governing the transverse motion of the beam is simplified, and a model equation that retains the essential features of the original equation is analyzed. In addition, we provide a method of approximation of the model equation using splines.
