Abstract

The classic example used to illustrate the basic problems raised by the mathematical analysis of partial differential equations (PDEs) concerns the mechanics of deformable solids, and in particular a homogeneous and isotropic elastic membrane occupying a region \(\Omega \) in the plane \((O,\mathbf {x},\mathbf {y})\).
