Abstract

In this paper, we present a study for a nonlinear problem governed by the biharmonic equation in the plane. Using Green’s formula, the problem is converted into a system of nonlinear integral equations for the unknown data of the boundary. Existence and uniqueness of the solution of the system of nonlinear boundary integral equations is established.
