Riassunto:

This book presents three fundamental aspects of the variational formulation of mechanics: physical, mathematical and applicative ones. Advises on choosing the most suitable formulation, and applies variational analysis directly to real engineering problems.

Dalla quarta di copertina:

Variational methods give an efficient and elegant way to formulate and solve mathematical problems that are of interest to scientists and engineers. In this book three fundamental aspects of the variational formulation of mechanics will be presented: physical, mathematical and applicative ones.
The first aspect concerns the investigation of the nature of real physical problems with the aim of finding the best variational formulation suitable to those problems. The second aspect is the study of the well-posedeness of those mathematical problems which need to be solved in order to draw previsions from the formulated models. And the third aspect is related to the direct application of variational analysis to solve real engineering problems.
