Abstract

Continuous dependence upon the elastic moduli of the total energy, and consequently in appropriate measure of the stress, strain and displacement, is established in the initial boundary value problem defined on a semi-infinite cylinder occupied by a linear anisotropic compressible elastic material. Free, constrained and mixed boundary conditions on the lateral surface of the cylinder are discussed. The conclusions are obtained using differential inequalities and partly depend upon previously published results.
