Abstract: This paper is concerned with the elliptic equation Deltau=fraclambda(au)p in a connected, bounded C2 domain Omega of mathbbRN subject to zero Dirichlet boundary conditions, where lambda>0, Ngeq1, p>0 and vanishes at the boundary with the rate mdist(x,partialOmega)gamma for gamma>0. When p=2 and N=2, this equation models the closed Micro-Electromechanical Systems devices, where the elastic membrane sticks the curved ground plate on the boundary, but insulating on the boundary. The function a shapes the curved ground plate. Our aim in this paper is to study qualitative properties of minimal solutions of this equation when lambda>0, p>0 and to show how the boundary decaying of a works on the minimal solutions and the pull-in voltage. Particularly, we give a complete analysis for the stability of the minimal solutions.
