Abstract: | In this paper, a nonlinear boundary value problem in a three dimensionalthin domain with Tresca's friction law is considered. The small change of variablez = x3/ε transforms the initial problem posed in the domain Ωεinto a new problemposed on a fixed domain Ω independent of the parameter ε. As a main result, weobtain some estimates independent of the small parameter. The passage to the limiton ε, permits to prove the results concerning the limit of the weak problem and itsuniqueness. |
