| Research Interests: Professor
Antman studies a variety of dynamical and steady-state nonlinear problems
for rods, shells, and three-dimensional solid bodies. The goals of
these studies are to discover new nonlinear effects, determine thresholds
in constitutive equations separating qualitatively different responses,
treat control problems involving "smart" materials, examine
important kinds of instabilities, contribute to the theory of shocks
and dissipative mechanisms in solids, and develop new methods of nonlinear
analysis and of effective computation for problems of solid mechanics |
