This paper, based on the general forms of the penalties by Beale and Small and the stronger penalties by Tomlin, describes the modifications of these penalties used for the method of bounded variables. The same examples from Petersen are taken and the satisfactory results are shown in comparison with those obtained by Tomlin.展开更多

Our operator is of the most general form containing all previous ones and we also weaken assumptions on the operator and the nonlinearity to get the above results. Moreover, we do not impose the restricted condition on p(x) and the uniform monotonicity of the operator to show the existence of three distinct solutions.展开更多
