A class of elliptic quasi-variational-hemivariational inequalities with applications

In this paper we study a class of quasi--variational--hemi\-va\-ria\-tio\-nal inequalities in reflexive Banach spaces. The inequalities contain a convex potential, a locally Lipschitz superpotential, and a solution-dependent set of constraints. Solution existence and compactness of the solution set to the inequality problem are established based on the Kakutani--Ky Fan--Glicksberg fixed point theorem. Two examples of the interior and boundary semipermeability models illustrate the applicability of our results.

A new class of history-dependent quasi variational-hemivariational inequalities with constraints

In this paper we consider an abstract class of time-dependent quasi variational-hemivariational inequalities which involves history-dependent operators and a set of unilateral constraints. First, we establish the existence and uniqueness of solution by using a recent result for elliptic variational-hemivariational inequalities in reflexive Banach spaces combined with a fixed-point principle for history-dependent operators. Then, we apply the abstract result to show the unique weak solvability to a quasistatic viscoelastic frictional contact problem. The contact law involves a unilateral Signorini-type condition for the normal velocity and the nonmonotone normal damped response condition while the friction condition is a version of the Coulomb law of dry friction in which the friction bound depends on the accumulated slip.
