On positiveness and contractiveness of the integral operator arising from the beam deflection problem on elastic foundation
Abstract
We provide a complete proof that there are no nontrivial eigenvalues of the integral operator Kl outside the interval (0,1/k). Kl arises naturally from the deflection problem of a beam with length l resting horizontally on an elastic foundation with spring constant k, while some vertical load is applied to the beam.
