We consider the Robin-Dirichlet problem for a nonlinear wave equation of Kirchhoff-Carrier type. Using the Faedo-Galerkin method and the linearization method for nonlinear terms, the existence and uniqueness of a weak solution are proved. An asymptotic expansion of high order in a small parameter of a weak solution is also discussed.
A Dirichlet problem for a nonlinear wave equation is investigated. Under suitable assumptions, we prove the solvability and the uniqueness of a weak solution of the above problem. On the other hand, a high-order asymptotic expansion of a weak solution in many small parameters is studied. Our approach is based on the Faedo-Galerkin method, the compact imbedding theorems, and the Taylor expansion of a function.
