Abstract
The author considers the method of two-sided evaluations in the problems of stability of a one-span elastic non-uniformly compressed rod under various conditions of fixation of its ends.The required minimum critical value of the loading parameter for the rod is the minimum value of the functional equal to the ratio of the norms of Hilbert space elements squared. Using the inequalities following from the problem of the best approximation of a Hilbert space element through the basic functions, it is possible to construct two sequences of functionals, the minimum values of which are the lower evaluations and the upper ones. The basic functions here are the orthonormal forms of the stability loss for a rod with constant cross-section, compressed by longitudinal forces at the ends, which are fixed just so like the ends of the non-uniformly compressed rod.Having used the Riesz theorem about the representation of a bounded linear functional in the Hilbert space, the author obtains the additional functions from the domain of definition of the initial functional, which correspond to the basic functions. Using these additional functions, the calculation of the lower bounds is reduced to the determination of the maximum eigenvalues of the matrices represented in the form of second order modular matrices with the elements expressed in the form of integrals of basic and additional functions. The calculation of the upper bound value is reduced to the determination of the maximum eigenvalue of the matrix, which almost coincides with one of the modular matrices. It is noted that the obtained upper bound evaluations are not worse than the evaluations obtained through the Ritz method with the use of the same basic functions.
