Abstract

The solution of the problem on a circular membrane loaded at the center by a lumped force is a classical example of a singular solution of equations of mathematical physics. In this paper, the problem is solved by using relations of the generalized theory of elasticity, which contain a structural parameter and permit obtaining a regular solution. An experiment for determining the structural parameter in the problem of bending of a membrane is described.
