This paper is devoted to the study of a nonlinear Euler-Bernoulli Beam type equation involving both left and right Caputo fractional derivatives. Differently from the approaches of the other papers where they established the existence of solution for the linear Euler-Bernoulli Beam type equation numerically, we use the lower and upper solutions method with some new results on the monotonicity of the right Caputo derivative. Furthermore, we give the explicit expression of the upper and lower solutions. A numerical example is given to illustrate the obtained results.
