Study of a boundary value problem governed by the general elasticity system with a new boundary conditions in a thin domain

Abstract

Abstract The aim of this work is the study of a nonlinear boundary value problem which theoretically generalizes the Lamé system with disturbance in a thin 3D domain with friction and a generalized boundary condition. For the resolution of the considered problem and after the variational formulation, we construct an operator from the variational problem. Then we prove that this operator has certain properties which allows us to apply the theorem of existence and uniqueness of the solution of variational inequalities of the 2nd kind. Finally, using a change of scale, we transport the variational problem to an equivalent problem defined on a domain independent of the parameter ζ {{\zeta}} and subsequently we obtain the limit problem and the generalized weak equations of the initial problem.
