We study a nonlinear problem of pendulum-type for a p-Laplacian with nonlinear periodic-type boundary conditions. Using an extension of Mawhin’s continuation theorem for nonlinear operators, we prove the existence of a solution under a LandesmanLazer type condition. Moreover, using the method of upper and lower solutions, we generalize a celebrated result by Castro for the classical pendulum eq...

A laminar, two dimensional, steady boundary layer Newtonian conducting fluid flow passes over a permeable shrinking sheet in the presence of a uniform magnetic field is investigated. The governing equations have converted to ordinary nonlinear differential equations (ODE) by using appropriate similarity transformations. The main idea is to transform ODE with infinite boundary condition into oth...

We consider a higher-order multi-point boundary-value problem with a nonlinear boundary condition. Sufficient conditions are obtained for the existence of three solutions. In our problem, the differential equation has dependence on all lower order derivatives of the unknown function and the boundary condition covers many multi-point boundary conditions studied earlier by other authors. Our resu...

In this paper we study a porous medium equation with a nonlinear absorption term and a nonlinear boundary condition. We prove existence of weak solutions and also we establish some uniqueness and non uniqueness results for certain range of the parameters that appear in the problem. Finally we deal with the existence of global solutions in time or blow-up. We find in which region of parameters t...

We study the boundary controllability of a nonlinear Korteweg–de Vries equation with the Dirichlet boundary condition on an interval with a critical length for which it has been shown by Rosier that the linearized control system around the origin is not controllable. We prove that the nonlinear term gives the local controllability around the origin.

This dissertation is to discuss the initial-boundary value problem under the third nonlinear boundary condition for a kind of nonlinear evolution equations. To apply the maximum value theory and convex functional method£it is proved that the blowing up of solution in the definite time under some assumed conditions. The conclusion popularizes the results of references [Zhongwei Zha(2003)-Zhongwe...

Chaotic dynamics has been hailed as the third great scientific revolution of the 20th century, along with relativity and quantum mechanics [1]. In this paper, we consider the one-dimensional wave equation with the initial-boundary value problem on the unit interval. The boundary condition at the left endpoint is linear homogeneous, injecting energy into the system, while the boundary condition ...

We study an initial-boundary-value problem of a nonlinear Korteweg-de Vries equation posed on a finite interval (0, 2π). The whole system has Dirichlet boundary condition at the left end-point, and both of Dirichlet and Neumann homogeneous boundary conditions at the right end-point. It is known that the origin is not asymptotically stable for the linearized system around the origin. We prove th...

this paper addresses the combined effects of couple stresses, thermal radiation, viscous dissipation and slip condition on a free convective flow of a couple stress fluid induced by a vertical stretching sheet. the cogley- vincenti-gilles equilibrium model is employed to include the effects of thermal radiation in the study. the governing boundary layer equations are transformed into a system o...

We investigate the nontrivial solutions for a class of the systems of the superquadratic nonlinear wave equations with Dirichlet boundary condition and periodic condition with a superquadratic nonlinear terms at infinity which have continuous derivatives. We approach the variational method and use the critical point theory on the manifold, in terms of the limit relative category of the sublevel...
