Abstract

The notion of very weak solutions is introduced in this paper in order to solve the boundary value problems for the Laplace operator and for the Lamé system with nonsmooth data in polyhedral domains. A continuity theorem is given for variational solutions of the above problems. This result may be used to solve problems with concentrated loads.
