Nonlinear Equations for Beams and Degenerate Plates with Piers

This book develops a full theory for hinged beams and degenerate plates with multiple intermediate piers with the final purpose of understanding the stability of suspension bridges.  New models are proposed and new tools are provided for the stabilit

Preface

Many bridges have suffered unexpected oscillations both during construction and after inauguration, sometimes leading to collapse (see e.g. [2, 12]). Thanks to the videos available on the web [19], most people have seen the spectacular collapse of the Tacoma Narrows Bridge (TNB), which occurred in 1940: the torsional oscillations were considered the main cause of this dramatic event [3, 16]. Torsional oscillation
