Landau's Books - Vibration - flexible string

AI Thread Summary
Landau's books do not extensively cover the topic of flexible strings, particularly in relation to differential equations, normal modes, and standing waves. The volume on elasticity mentions the subject briefly but lacks comprehensive details. For a more thorough exploration, the book by Fetter and Walecka is recommended as it includes a dedicated chapter on flexible strings. Users seeking detailed information on this topic may find better resources outside of Landau's works. Overall, while Landau touches on related concepts, it may not meet the specific needs for studying flexible strings.

Hello everyone,
I would like to know if i can find in any of the Landau's books a chapter ,part concerning the flexible string ( differential equation , normal modes , stading waves ) ? I have tried to see but i can't find anything . There is a chapter concerning sound waves in a medium ( volume fluid mechanics ) but nothing about flexible string ?
Thank you for your answers

Best regards ,
Diamon

Thread 'Question about pressure of a liquid'
I am looking at pressure in liquids and I am testing my idea. The vertical tube is 100m, the contraption is filled with water. The vertical tube is very thin(maybe 1mm^2 cross section). The area of the base is ~100m^2. Will he top half be launched in the air if suddenly it cracked?- assuming its light enough. I want to test my idea that if I had a thin long ruber tube that I lifted up, then the pressure at "red lines" will be high and that the $force = pressure * area$ would be massive...
I feel it should be solvable we just need to find a perfect pattern, and there will be a general pattern since the forces acting are based on a single function, so..... you can't actually say it is unsolvable right? Cause imaging 3 bodies actually existed somwhere in this universe then nature isn't gonna wait till we predict it! And yea I have checked in many places that tiny changes cause large changes so it becomes chaos........ but still I just can't accept that it is impossible to solve...
