Abstract

We consider a biharmonic problem Δ2uω = fω with Navier type boundary conditions uω = Δuω = 0, on a family of truncated sectors Ωω in ℝ2 of radius r, 0 < r < 1 and opening angle ω, ω ∈ (2π/3, π] when ω is close to π. The family of right-hand sides (fω)ω∈(2π/3, π] is assumed to depend smoothly on ω in L2(Ωω). The main result is that uω converges to uπ when ω → π with respect to the H2-norm. We can also show that the H2-topology is optimal for such a convergence result.
