This review article gives a historical overview of some topics related to the classical 2D biharmonic problem. This problem arises in many physical studies concerning bending of clamped thin elastic isotropic plates, equilibrium of an elastic body under conditions of plane strain or plane stress, or creeping flow of a viscous incompressible fluid. The object of this paper is both to elucidate some interesting points related to the history of the problem and to give an overview of some analytical approaches to its solution. This review article contains 758 references.

Abstract In a paper by T. R. Kane and R. D. Mindlin, a two-dimensional theory was developed for high-frequency extensional vibrations of elastic, isotropic plates. This theory is now used to study vibrations of a circular disk with a concentric hole.

ABSTRACTIn this paper, Fourier integrals are used to solve some elastic problems of generalized plane stress and small transverse displacements in infinitely long, rectangular, isotropic plates stressed only at their edges. The Airy stress function and the transverse displacement satisfy the two-dimensional bi-harmonic equation, and the basic mathematical problem is to solve this equation subject to different sets of boundary conditions. Little attention has been given hitherto to problems in which some of the boundary conditions depend directly upon displacements. Here the general problem is solved when one long edge is fixed, and stresses or displacements are arbitrarily prescribed at the other, with no stresses and displacements at infinity. The problem of a concentrated edge force is discussed in detail and numerical values of the stresses at the fixed edge are given.

By employing the Stroh formalism for two-dimensional anisotropic thermoelasticity, fracture analyses of interface corners between two dissimilar anisotropic elastic materials under thermal loadings are considered in this paper. It was proved that the consideration of thermal effects will not influence the stress singularity but will induce heat flux singularity if the singularity of the temperature field is not permissible. To calculate the stress intensity factors via path independent H-integral, it was found that the one proposed previously for the mechanical loading conditions should be modified by adding an additional surface integral accounting for the thermal effects. Two examples considering cracks and corners in isotropic plates are presented to show the correctness and validity of the modified H-integral.

I should like to give you a very condensed progress report on some spectrophotometric measurements of objective-prism spectra made in collaboration with H. Leicher at Bonn. The procedure used is almost completely automatic. The measurements are made with the help of a semi-automatic fully digitized registering microphotometer constructed by Hög-Hamburg. The reductions are carried out with the aid of a number of interconnected programmes written for the computer IBM 7090, beginning with the output of the photometer in the form of punched cards and ending with the printing-out of the final two-dimensional classifications.

1. The definition of “normal” stars in spectral classification changes with time; at the time of the publication of theYerkes Spectral Atlasthe term “normal” was applied to stars whose spectra could be fitted smoothly into a two-dimensional array. Thus, at that time, weak-lined spectra (RR Lyrae and HD 140283) would have been considered peculiar. At the present time we would tend to classify such spectra as “normal”—in a more complicated classification scheme which would have a parameter varying with metallic-line intensity within a specific spectral subdivision.

“Dynamical mixing”, i.e. relaxation of a stellar phase space distribution through interaction with the mean gravitational field, is numerically investigated for a one-dimensional self-gravitating stellar gas. Qualitative results are presented in the form of a motion picture of the flow of phase points (representing homogeneous slabs of stars) in two-dimensional phase space.

AbstractIn this paper we present complete two-dimensional measurements of the observed brightness of the 9th November 1990Hαflare, using a PDS microdensitometer scanner and image processing software MIDAS. The resulting isophotal contour maps, were used to describe morphological-cum-temporal behaviour of the flare and also the kernels of the flare. Correlation of theHαflare with SXR and MW radiations were also studied.

This tutorial will discuss the methodology of low dose electron diffraction and imaging of crystalline biological objects, the problems of data interpretation for two-dimensional projected density maps of glucose embedded protein crystals, the factors to be considered in combining tilt data from three-dimensional crystals, and finally, the prospects of achieving a high resolution three-dimensional density map of a biological crystal. This methodology will be illustrated using two proteins under investigation in our laboratory, the T4 DNA helix destabilizing protein gp32*I and the crotoxin complex crystal.
