The characterisation of those shapes that can be made by the gravity sag-bending manufacturing process used to produce car windscreens and lenses is modelled as an inverse problem in linear plate theory. The corresponding second-order partial differential equation for the Young's modulus is shown to change type (possibly several times) for certain target shapes. We consider the implications of this behaviour for the existence and uniqueness of solutions of the inverse problem for some frame geometries. In particular, we show that no general boundary conditions for the inverse problem can be prescribed if it is desired to achieve certain kinds of target shapes.

AbstractThe authors consider in this paper the inverse problem of finding a pair of functions (u, p) such thatwhere F, f, E, s, αi, βi, γi, gi, i = 1, 2, are given functions.The existence and uniqueness of a smooth global solution pair (u, p) which depends continuously upon the data are demonstrated under certain assumptions on the data.

In this paper, we study a mixed problem with integral boundary conditions for a high order partial differential equation of mixed type. We prove the existence and uniqueness of the solution. The proof is based on energy inequality, and on the density of the range of the operator generated by the considered problem.

We prove the existence and uniqueness of a strong solution for a linear third-order equation with integral boundary conditions. The proof uses energy inequalities and the density of the range of the operator generated.

AbstractWe consider the partial differential equationu-f=\operatornamewithlimits{div}\biggl{(}u^{m}\frac{\nabla u}{|\nabla u|}% \biggr{)}with f nonnegative and bounded and {m\in\mathbb{R}}. We prove existence and uniqueness of solutions for both the Dirichlet problem (with bounded and nonnegative boundary datum) and the homogeneous Neumann problem. Solutions, which a priori belong to a space of truncated bounded variation functions, are shown to have zero jump part with respect to the {{\mathcal{H}}^{N-1}}-Hausdorff measure. Results and proofs extend to more general nonlinearities.

We study a mixed problem with integral boundary conditions for a third-order partial differential equation of mixed type. We prove the existence and uniqueness of the solution. The proof is based on two-sided a priori estimates and on the density of the range of the operator generated by the considered problem.
