Existence results for a model of nonlinear beam on elastic bearings. (English) Zbl 0965.74030

Summary: We study the existence of solutions of the nonlinear fourth-order equation of Kirchhoff type \(u^{(iv)}- m(\int^1_0 |u'(x) |^2 dx)u''+f (x,u)=0\) under nonlinear boundary conditions, which models the deformations of beams on elastic bearings.
