We consider a thin and narrow rectangular plate where the two short edges are hinged whereas the two long edges are free. This plate aims to represent the deck of a bridge, either a footbridge or a suspension bridge. We study a nonlocal…
We suggest a new model for the dynamics of a suspension bridge through a system of nonlinear nonlocal hyperbolic differential equations. The equations are of second and fourth order in space and describe the behavior of the main components…

The complex behavior of drop deposition on a hydrophobic surface is considered by looking at a model problem in which the evolution of a constant-volume liquid bridge is studied as the bridge is stretched. The bridge is pinned with a fixed…

Presented here is a study of well-posedness and asymptotic stability of a "degenerately damped" PDE modeling a vibrating elastic string. The coefficient of the damping may vanish at small amplitudes thus weakening the effect of the…
We investigate the stability properties of an abstract class of semi-linear systems. Our main result establishes rational rates of decay for classical solutions assuming a certain non-uniform observability estimate for the linear part and…

In this paper we study well-posedness and asymptotic stability for a class of nonlinear second-order evolution equations with intermittent delay damping. More precisely, a delay feedback and an undelayed one act alternately in time. We show…
The Melan beam equation modeling suspension bridges is considered. A slightly modified equation is derived by applying variational principles and by minimising the total energy of the bridge. The equation is nonlinear and nonlocal, while…
In this paper we consider second order evolution equations with bounded damping. We give a characterization of a non uniform decay for the damped problem using a kind of observability estimate for the associated undamped problem.
In this paper, we address the stability of transport systems and wave propagation on networks with time-varying parameters. We do so by reformulating these systems as non-autonomous difference equations and by providing a suitable…
All attempts of aeroelastic explanations for the torsional instability of suspension bridges have been somehow criticised and none of them is unanimously accepted by the scientific community. We suggest a new nonlinear model for a…
We study the small vibrations of an axially travelling string with a dashpoint damping at one end. The string is modelled by a wave equation in a time-dependent interval with two endpoints moving at a constant speed $v$. For the undamped…
We study the problem of stabilization for the acoustic system with a spatially distributed damping. With imposing hypothesis on the structural properties of the damping term, we identify exponential decay of solutions with growing time.
In this paper we explore the numerical study. of the Nonlinear Behavior of Suspension Bridge Models. The study of suspension bridges is one of the classic problems of mechanical vibrations, one of the most famous collapses of which was that…
We model the roadway of a suspension bridge as a thin rectangular plate and we study in detail its oscillating modes. The plate is assumed to be hinged on its short edges and free on its long edges. Two different kinds of oscillating modes…
In this paper we study the stability of two different problems. The first one is a one-dimensional degenerate wave equation with degenerate damping, incorporating a drift term and a leading operator in non-divergence form. In the second…
This paper explores the exponential stability of two nonlinear wave equations coupled through their velocities. The analysis is divided into two main cases. First, we consider a system where one equation is damped, while the other…
