Noncoercive Problems in Nonlinear Elasticity with Stored Energies Having Fast Or Slow Growth: Orlicz-Sobolev Space Setting

Abstract

This paper is concerned with a noncoercive unilateral problem in nonlinear elasticity with stored energy function having fast or slow growth. We prove an existence result for the associated minimization problem by using a recession approach in Orlicz—Sobolev space.
