Periodic solutions of a semilinear Euler-Bernoulli beam equation with variable coefficients (2001.05693v1)
Published 16 Jan 2020 in math.DS
Abstract: This paper is devoted to the study of periodic solutions for a semilinear Euler-Bernoulli beam equation with variable coefficients. Such mathematical model may be described the infinitesimal, free, undamped in-plane bending vibrations of a thin straight elastic beam. When the frequency $\omega =\frac{2\pi}{T}$ is rational, some properties of the beam operator with variable coefficients are investigated. We obtain the existence of periodic solutions when the nonlinear term is monotone and bounded.
