Abstract

This paper deals with multiplicity results for nonlinear elastic equations of the type

$$\begin{array}{*{20}c} {y^{(v)} - a_1 y + \beta _1 y^v + g(x,y,y'') = e,0< x< 1} \\ {y(0) = y''(0) = y'(1) = y'''(1) = 0} \\ \end{array}$$

where∈L2(0, 1), g′[0,1]×R×R→R is a bounded continuous junction, and the pair (x 1,β 0) satisfics

$$a_1 + (0 + 0.5)^2 \pi ^2 \beta _1 = (0 + 0.5)^4 \pi ^4$$

and

$$a_1 + (k + 0.5)^2 \pi ^2 \beta _1 = (k + 0.5)^4 \pi ^4 ,forallk \in N$$
