This technique can contribute to the understanding of the boundary behavior of solutions of boundary value problems, especially when they involve mean curvature and a contact angle boundary condition. Our goal in this note is to investigate the structure of "blown up" sets of the form \$PR\$ and \$NR\$ when \$P, N R^2\$ and \$P\$ (or \$N\$) minimizes an appropriate functional; sets like \$PR\$ can be the limits of the blow ups of subgraphs of solutions of mean curvature problems, for example. In Part One, we investigate "blown up" sets when the domain has a convex corner. As an application, we illustrate the second author's proof of the Concus-Finn Conjecture by providing a simplified proof when the mean curvature is zero.
