Application of various elastic thin shell theories to blood flow problems
Some existing theories, on elastic thin shells, are reviewed to ascertain their influence on the computation of phase velocities in fluid filled cylinders representing certain aspects of the behavior of arteries and veins in vivo. For physiologically meaningful parameters, including moderately large in plane prestrain that occurs in mammals, the results suggest that with one exception, the small differences in the formulations exercise little influence on the phase velocities. However, it is demonstrated that inclusion of the forces induced by the rotation of the hydrostatic pressure is essential or significantly erroneous torsional wave speeds result. Also the introduction of moderate implane prestrains that are present in living mammals is shown to lead to nonselfadjoint differential equations of motion, whose biorthogonal eigenvectors differ slightly from each other.

Remarks on a dynamical higher-order theory of laminated plates and its application in random vibration response
This paper presents an analysis of the equations governing the dynamics of shear-deformable composite plates, without recourse to a variational procedure. It is noted that the operator associated with the governing equations is nonsymmetric; using a first-order perturbation technique, it is shown to be positive-definite. In addition, using the biorthogonality condition, the dynamic response of the plate is formulated.

Dynamics and Control of Articulated Anisotropic Timoshenko Beams
The paper illustrates the use of continuum models in control design for stabilizing flexible structures. A 6-DOF anisotropic Timoshenko beam with discrete nodes where lumped masses or actuators are located provides a sufficiently rich model to be of interest for mathematical theory as well as practical application. We develop concepts and tools to help answer engineering questions without having to resort to ad hoc heuristic ("physical") arguments or faith. In this sense the paper is more mathematically oriented than engineering papers and vice versa at the same time. For instance we make precise time-domain solutions using the theory of semigroups of operators rather than formal "inverse Laplace transforms." We show that the modes arise as eigenvalues of the generator of the semigroup, which are then related to the eigenvalues of the stiffness operator. With the feedback control, the modes are no longer orthogonal and the question naturally arises as to whether there is still a modal expansion. Here we prove that the eigenfunctions yield a biorthogonal Riesz basis and indicate the corresponding expansion. We prove mathematically that the number of eigenvalues is nonfinite, based on the theory of zeros of entire functions. We make precise the notion of asymptotic modes and indicate how to calculate them. Although limited by space, we do consider the root locus problem and show for instance that the damping at first increases as the control gain increases but starts to decrease at a critical value, and goes to zero as the gain increases without bound. The undamped oscillatory modes remain oscillatory and the rigid-body modes go over into deadbeat modes. The Timoshenko model dynamics are translated into a canonical wave equation in a Hilbert space. The solution is shown to require the use of an "energy" norm which is no more than the total energy: potential plus kinetic. We show that, under an appropriate extension of the notion of controllability, rate feedback with a collocated sensor can stabilize the structure in the sense that all modes are damped and the energy decays to zero. An example, non-numeric, is worked out in some detail illustrating the concepts and theory developed.
