Geometry of the free-sliding Bernoulli beam
Giovanni Moreno, Monika Ewa Stypa
If a variational problem comes with no boundary conditions prescribed beforehand, and yet these arise as a consequence of the variation process itself, we speak of a free boundary…

Natural boundary conditions in geometric calculus of variations
Giovanni Moreno, Monika Ewa Stypa
In this paper we obtain natural boundary conditions for a large class of variational problems with free boundary values. In comparison with the already existing examples, our frame…
