Abstract
In this paper, we discuss the existence of multiple positive solutions for the fourth-order boundary value problem (BVP) u(4)(t) + βu″(t) =f(t,u(t)), 0<t< 1, u(0) = u(1) = uPrime;(0) = u″(1) = 0, where f: [0. 1] × [0, ∞) → [0, ∞) is continuous and β< π2. Existence is established via the theory of fixed point index in cones.
