Abstract:In this article we give a brief overview of some known results in the theory of obstacle-type problems associated with a class of fourth-order elliptic operators, and we highlight our recent work with collaborators in this direction. Obstacle-type problems governed by operators of fourth order naturally arise in the linearized Kirchhoff-Love theory for plate bending phenomena. Moreover, as first observed by Yang in [34], boundary obstacle-type problems associated with the weighted bi-Laplace operator can be se… Show more
