Abstract
The physical models which will be considered throughout the book, describing the dynamics of beams and degenerate plates modeling suspension bridges, are introduced. They involve different kinds of nonlinear (nonlocal and local) energies of bending, stretching and displacement type behaving superquadratically. A physical interpretation of the different nonlinear terms considered is given.
