Forced Transverse Vibrations of a Box Structure from the Action of a Plane Shock Wave, Based on a Flexible Plate Model

Box structures are widely used in mechanical engineering, instrumentation, construction and in many branches of human activity. Such structures play a special role in transport engineering, particularly in the automotive industry. Often, the box structure in addition to the force impact, can experience loads of wave influence nature. For reliable operation of a box structure, as well as for the assessment of strength and stiffness, it is necessary to know the dynamic characteristics of the system, in particular, to be able to determine the forms of transverse vibrations under different types of impacts at different moments of time.
