Abstract The relevance of the stated subject is conditioned upon the presence of a real possibility to simulate vibrations of elastic membranes in space according to the Hamilton principle using degenerate three-dimensional hyperbolic equations, which is of particular practical importance from the standpoint of the prospects for mathematical modelling of the heat propagation process in oscillating elastic membranes. The purpose of this paper is to study the sequence of the procedure for mathematical modelling of heat propagation in oscillating elastic membranes which is leading to degenerate three-dimensional hyperbolic equations. The methodological approach of this study is based on a combination of theoretical study of the possibilities of constructing mathematical models of heat propagation in oscillating elastic membranes with the practical application of methods for constructing three-dimensional hyperbolic equations with type and order degeneracy to find a single solution to a mixed problem. In the course of this study, the results were presented in the form of a mathematical proof of the possibility of obtaining a single solution to a mixed problem for three-dimensional hyperbolic equations with type and order degeneracy. The results obtained in this study and the conclusions formulated on their basis are of significant practical importance for developers of methods of mathematical modelling of heat propagation processes in oscillating artificial membranes, which is of key importance from the standpoint of prospects for improving methods of mathematical modelling of processes occurring in technical devices used in various fields of modern industries.
