Abstract

Let n=3. In this paper, we consider the following general quasilinear boundary value problem of second order {u^''(t)+n-1tu^'(t)+f(t,u(t))=0,a.e.t@?[0,1],u^'(0)=0,u(1)=0, where the nonlinear term f(t,u) is a strong Caratheodory function. By applying the monotonically iterative technique, we construct a sequence of successive approximations and prove that the sequence converges uniformly to the solution of the above problem under suitable assumptions.
