The asymptotic behaviour of the sequence of solutions of the following nonlinear elliptic problem \[ -\Delta_p(u_n)+ \bigl|g(x,u_n) \bigr|^{n-1} g(x,u_n)= f\text{ in } \Omega, \quad u_n\in W_0^{1/p} (\Omega), \tag \(P_n\) \] is studied. If \(f\in W^{-1,p'} (\Omega)\) and \(g:\Omega \times\mathbb{R} \to\mathbb{R}\) is a Carathèodory function satisfying some assumptions, the authors prove that every sequence \(\{u_n\}\) of solutions of \((P_n)\) converges strongly in \(W_0^{1,p} (\Omega)\) to the unique solution \(u\) of the variational inequality \[ \bigl\langle -\Delta_p(u)- f,\nu-u\bigr\rangle \geq 0\quad \text{for every} \quad \nu\in K,\;u\in K, \] where \(K\) is a nonempty convex closed subset of \(W_0^{1,p} (\Omega)\). The authors then apply the results to some double obstacle problems, giving the explicit construction of the function \(g\). Finally, the same problem with \(f\in L^1 (\Omega)\) is studied.
