General hyperbolic Kirchhoff model for the free vibration of elastic string on a flat surface

In this work, we investigate the existence of weak solutions for the general form of the hyperbolic Kirchhoff-type problem involving a free boundary modelling the free vibration of an elastic string on a flat surface. We employ the Discrete Morse Flow (DMF) approach, which reformulates the original...

description In this work, we investigate the existence of weak solutions for the general form of the hyperbolic Kirchhoff-type problem involving a free boundary modelling the free vibration of an elastic string on a flat surface. We employ the Discrete Morse Flow (DMF) approach, which reformulates the original problem as a sequence of minimization problems at discrete time intervals. This ensures the existence of a minimizer for the discretized functional, which in turn serves as a weak solution to the main problem. The presence of non-local terms, arising from the p-Kirchhoff term, introduces dependencies on the gradient norm [Formula: see text] across the entire domain, making the analysis more challenging. These non-local terms encapsulate the effect of the free boundary and influence the behaviour of the solution globally, rather than being determined solely by local values of v. Our study provides a rigorous treatment to overcome these difficulties. Furthermore, we present numerical simulations to illustrate the physical implications of our results.
