Existence and concentration of nontrivial solutions for an elastic beam equation with local nonlinearity

In this paper, by using the mountain pass lemma and the skill of truncation function, we investigate the existence and concentration phenomenon of nontrivial weak solutions for a class of elastic beam differential equation with two parameters $\lambda$ and $\mu$ when the nonlinear term satisfies some growth conditions only near the origin. In particular, we obtain a concrete lower bound of the parameter $\lambda$, and analyze the relationship between $\lambda$ and $\mu$. In the end, we investigate the concentration phenomenon of solutions when $\mu \to 0$, and obtain a specific lower bound of the parameter $\lambda$ which is independent of $\mu$.
