Abstract

In this work, we propose a mathematical model for a physical problem based on the movement of a metal piece held by a robot. Using the principles of Kirchoff plate theory, a set of equations determining stresses and deformations caused during the motion, have been provided. We also discuss possible numerical treatment of these equations and finally, a solution to the one-dimensional analog of the problem has been presented.
