LetTbe an integer withT≥5and letT2={2,3,…,T}. We consider the existence of positive solutions of the nonlinear boundary value problems of fourth-order difference equationsΔ4u(t−2)−ra(t)f(u(t))=0,t∈T2,u(1)=u(T+1)=Δ2u(0)=Δ2u(T)=0, whereris a constant,a:T2→(0,∞),  and  f:[0,∞)→[0,∞)is continuous. Our approaches are based on the Krein-Rutman theorem and the global bifurcation theorem.

This paper is concerned with the existence of monotone positive solutions for an elastic beam equation with nonlinear boundary conditions. By applying monotone iteration method, we not only obtain the existence of monotone positive solutions but also establish iterative schemes for approximating the solutions. It is worth mentioning that these iterative schemes start off with zero function or quadratic function, which is very useful and feasible for computational purpose. An example is also included to illustrate the main results obtained.
