Two principles are basic in the variational formulations of elasticity. Green's "variation for displacements" leads to the principle of minimum potential energy, whereas Castigliano's "variation for stresses" leads to the principle of minimum complementary energy. In the small vibration of elastic b
We shall review recent results obtained in the study of some periodic variational problems on Riemannian and Lorentzian manifolds with boundary. Firstly we shall analyze the existence of closed geodesics on a Riemannian manifold \(\left(\mathcal{M},\langle\cdot, \cdot\rangle_{R}\right)\). Then we sh
This article deals with the generalization of Ekeland's first-order necessary conditions of minimum. They are extended to include second-order conditions. The results are applied to variational calculus and mathematical physics.
