    Basic Examples  (1)

    In the case of a biharmonic equation, higher-than-second-order derivatives are present:

    The solution is to rewrite the equation as a system of two equations:

    Note that the derivative boundary conditions from the original problem are now Dirichlet conditions for the system of equations.
