In this review note, a historical scientific investigation is presented for Lamb’s problem in the mathematical theory of elasticity. This problem first appeared in 1904 in the pioneering paper of Professor Sir Horace Lamb (Lamb, H. On the propagation of tremors over the surface of an elastic solid. Philos Trans R Soc Lon 1904; 203: 1–42). Of special interest here are the analytical studies of the three-dimensional version of Lamb’s problem, which consists of a semi-infinite, homogeneous, isotropic elastic solid that is set in motion by the exertion of a dynamical point force applied suddenly on the surface of the domain. The objective of this paper is to offer a comprehensive introduction to Lamb’s problem for the reader, along with discussing its mathematical complexities. An account is given of the history of this ever-significant problem from its earlier stages to the more recent investigations via outlining and discussing different rigorous approaches and methods of solution that have been hitherto suggested. The limitations of different methods, if they exist, are also discussed. Eventually, various solution methods are compared considering their nature, advantages, and restrictions.

Many applied problems in the theory of elasticity can be reduced to the solution of singular integral equations either linear or nonlinear. In this paper we shall study a nonlinear system of singular integral equations which appear on the closed Lipanouv surface in an ideal medium [4]. We shall find a cubic mechanical method which corresponds to the system and prove its convergence; we obtained a discrete operator which corresponds to this system and study its properties and then a solution to the resulting system of the nonlinear equations which leads to an approximate solution for the original system and its convergence.

In the paper the origin of the so named ?Duffing?s equation? is shown. The author?s generalization of the equation, her published papers dealing with Duffing?s equation and some of the solution methods are presented. Three characteristic approximate solution procedures based on the exact solution of the strong cubic Duffing?s equation are shown. Using the Jacobi elliptic functions the elliptic-Krylov-Bogolubov (EKB), the homotopy perturbation and the elliptic-Galerkin (EG) methods are described. The methods are compared. The advantages and the disadvantages of the methods are discussed.

An approximate solution to the Navier equations of the three-dimensional theory of elasticity for an axisymmetric orthotopic circular cylinder subjected to internal and external pressure, axial loads, and closely spaced periodic radial loads is developed. Numerical comparison with the exact solution for the special case of a transversely isotropic cylinder subjected to periodic band loads shows that very good accuracy is obtainable. When the results of the approximate solution are compared with previously obtained results of a Flu¨gge-type shell solution of a ring-reinforced orthotropic cylinder, it is found that the shell theory gives fairly accurate representations of the deformations and stresses except in the neighborhood of discontinuous loads. The addition of transverse shear deformations does not improve the accuracy of the shell solution.
