Project Type MQP Submission date 2008-08-28 Author William Robert Owens, wilco@WPI.EDU, MA URN E-project-082808-152922 Title Cracks in Half Plane, Cracks in Discs Advisor Volkov, Darko, MA Availability unrestricted Abstract
This project starts from an eigenvalue problem of Steklov type which models displacement fields occurring during the destabilization of faults in elastic media. We introduce and study in details the functional space V, a generalized solution space for this eigenvalue problem. The original formulation valid for half planes is then extended to problems in disks by conformal mapping.
