Abstract This research utilizes relational data envelopment analysis (DEA) to construct a model to analyze the efficiency of effectiveness of geothermal resources of Biga Penisula (Canakkale) in western Turkey. One input and two outputs are used in analysis, covering 9 geothermal resources. The results show that one geothermal resource is efficient.

Abstract The study of boundary value problems for elliptic eqautions were considered in [1-6]. A. V Bitsadze and A. A. Samarskii had proved existence and uniqueness of a classical solution to an elliptic second-order equation in a rectangle with nonlocal boundary conditions [7]. Previously, the Bitsadze-Samarskii type nonlocal boundary value problems for semilinear elliptic equations were studied [3]. The unique solvability of Bitsadze-Samarskii type nonlocal boundary value problems for the semilinear elliptic equations in a Hilbert space was investigated in that work. In this paper, we consider the same problem for approximately solving of this problem in a Hilbert Space [3] . The difference scheme is used to overcome the difficulties in numerical procedure.
