We introduce a framework for a nonlinear potential theory without a kernel on a reflexive, strictly convex and smooth Banach space of functions. Nonlinear potentials are defined as images of nonnegative continuous linear functionals on that space under the duality mapping. We study potentials and reduced functions by using a variant of the Gauss-Frostman quadratic functional. The framework allows a development of other main concepts of nonlinear potential theory such as capacities, equilibrium potentials and measures of finite energy.

In this paper some aspects of the nonlinear potential theory of actuator disks are considered. A rather general formulation of the problem for a prescribed load on a curved surface is given. For the special case of constant normal load and no incoming velocity the singular behavior of the flow at the edge of the disk is discussed.

We define Orlicz-Sobolev spaces on an arbitrary metric space with a Borel regular outer measure, and we develop a capacity theory based on these spaces. We study basic properties of capacity and several convergence results. We prove that each Orlicz-Sobolev function has a quasi-continuous representative. We give estimates for the capacity of balls when the measure is doubling. Under additional regularity assumption on the measure, we establish some relations between capacity and Hausdorff measures.
