AbstractWe study two classes of nonhomogeneous elliptic problems with Dirichlet boundary condition and involving a fourth-order differential operator with variable exponent and power-type nonlinearities. The first result of this paper establishes the existence of a nontrivial weak solution in the case of a small perturbation of the right-hand side. The proof combines variational methods, including the Ekeland variational principle and the mountain pass theorem of Ambrosetti and Rabinowitz. Next we consider a very related eigenvalue problem and we prove the existence of nontrivial weak solutions for large values of the parameter. The direct method of the calculus of variations, estimates of the levels of the associated energy functional and basic properties of the Lebesgue and Sobolev spaces with variable exponent have an important role in our arguments.

We continue to study the nonlinear fourth-order problem TΔu – DΔ2u = λ/(L + u)2, –L < u < 0 in Ω, u = 0, Δu = 0 on ∂Ω, where Ω ⊂ ℝN is a bounded smooth domain and λ > 0 is a parameter. When N = 2 and Ω is a convex domain, we know that there is λc > 0 such that for λ ∊ (0, λc) the problem possesses at least two regular solutions. We will see that the convexity assumption on Ω can be removed, i.e. the main results are still true for a general bounded smooth domain Ω. The main technique in the proofs of this paper is the blow-up argument, and the main difficulty is the analysis of touch-down behaviour.

AbstractIn this paper, we analyse the semilinear fourth-order problem ( − Δ)2 u = g(u) in exterior domains of ℝN. Assuming the function g is nondecreasing and continuous in [0, + ∞) and positive in (0, + ∞), we show that positive classical supersolutions u of the problem which additionally verify − Δu &gt; 0 exist if and only if N ≥ 5 and $$\int_0^\delta \displaystyle{{g(s)}\over{s^{(({2(N-2)})/({N-4}))}}} {\rm d}s \lt + \infty$$ for some δ &gt; 0. When only radially symmetric solutions are taken into account, we also show that the monotonicity of g is not needed in this result. Finally, we consider the same problem posed in ℝN and show that if g is additionally convex and lies above a power greater than one at infinity, then all positive supersolutions u automatically verify − Δu &gt; 0 in ℝN, and they do not exist when the previous condition fails.

In this paper, we get the existence of two positive solutions for a fourth-order problem with Navier boundary condition. Our nonlinearity has a critical growth, and the method is a local minimum theorem obtained by Bonanno.

The block hybrid collocation method with three off-step points is proposed for the direct solution of fourth order ordinary differential equations. The interpolation and collocation techniques are applied on basic polynomial to generate the main and additional methods. These methods are implemented in block form to obtain the approximation at seven points simultaneously. Numerical experiments are conducted to illustrate the efficiency of the method. The method is also applied to solve the fourth order problem from ship dynamics.
