The behavior of chiral bodies is of interest for the investigation of auxetic materials -carbon nanotubes -bones -honeycomb structures -as well as composites with inclusions. First -we establish the basic equations which govern the behavior of thin plates. It is shown that -in contrast with the theory of achiral plates -the stretching and flexure cannot be treated independently of each other. Then -we present a uniqueness result with no definiteness assumption on elastic constitutive coefficients. A reciprocity theorem is also established. Then -we present the conditions on the constitutive coefficients which guarantee that the energy of the system is positive definite and we give a continuous dependence result. In the case of stationary theory we derive a uniqueness result for the Neumann problem. Finally -the effects of a concentrated charge density in an unbounded plate are investigated -Deformacions (Mecànica) -Equacions diferencials parcials -Termoelasticitat -Classificació AMS::35 Partial differential equations::35Q Equations of mathematical physics and other areas of application -Classificació AMS::74 Mechanics of deformable solids::74B Elastic materials |
