Title: Positive solutions of a boundary-value problem for a
       differential equation with damping and actively bounded
       delayed forcing term

Author: George L. Karakostas (Univ. of Ioannina, Greece)
	 
Abstract: 
 Sufficient conditions are given for the existence of
 positive solutions of a boundary-value problem concerning a
 second-order delay differential equation with damping and
 forcing term whose the delayed part is an actively bounded function,
 a meaning which is introduced in this paper.
 The Krasnoselskii fixed point theorem on cones in Banach spaces is used.
