Periodic solutions of a semilinear Euler-Bernoulli beam equation with variable coefficients


Abstract in English

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 $omega =frac{2pi}{T}$ 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.
