Abstract
In this article, we deal with some interesting variants of asymptotic contractions,
namely Reich type and Chatterjea type weak asymptotic contractions defined on the usual metric spaces.
We derive a couple of fixed point results concerning such contractions. Moreover, we look over
the existence of solutions to a fourth-order two-point boundary value problem which is a particular type of cantilever beam problems.
Furthermore, we construct numerical examples to justify our obtained results.
Keywords: Asymptotic contractions; orbital continuity; cantilever beam problems; boundary value problems.
