We are going to analyze the interval solution of an elastic beam under uncertain boundary conditions. Boundary conditions are defined as rotational springs presenting interval stiffness. Developments occur according to the interval analysis theory, which is affected, at the same time, by the overestimation of interval limits (also known as overbounding, because of the propagation of the uncertainty in the model). We suggest a method which aims to reduce such an overestimation in the uncertain solution. This method consists in a reparameterization of the closed form Euler-Bernoulli solution and set intersection.

The mathematical modelling of certain problems of vibrations and stability for periodic slender visco-elastic beams is presented in this note. To consider these problems and take into account the effect of the microstructure, the tolerance modelling approach is proposed. Using this technique, the equation with non-continuous, periodic, highly oscillating coefficients is replaced by a system of differential equations with constant coefficients. Moreover, these governing equations describe the effect of the microstructure on the overall behavior of the beams under consideration. The tolerance modelling can lead to equations of two different tolerance models—the standard and the general, under weakened assumptions. This averaging tolerance method was assessed by comparison with the asymptotic homogenization, the governing equations of which omit this effect. My considerations were limited to proposing and presenting only mathematical models describing investigated beams. In a simple analytical example, the application of the presented average models is shown.

Abstract This paper is concerned with an inverse problem of the active control of non-steady dynamic vibration in elastic beams. A simulation technique based on the boundary element method and the extended Kalman filter or a new filter theory is successfully applied to the inverse problem. The Laplace-transform integral equation method is used for the solution of dynamic bending vibration in elastic beams. Through a Taylor series expansion, the linear system of equations is derived for modification of the unknown parameters, and it is solved iteratively so that an appropriate norm is minimized. The usefulness of the proposed method of inverse analysis is demonstrated through numerical computation of a few examples.
