A class of quasistatic contact problems for elasto-plastic bodies with isotropic hardening is considered. The problems involve displacements, plastic strains and plastic multipliers. In the framework of multi-valued operator equations, the existence and uniqueness assertions for discretized reduced subproblems are proved using a fundamental theorem on variational inequalities.

The flow theory of elasto-plastic bodies with isotropic strain hardening is formulated in strain space by means of a time-dependent variational inequality. Using concepts of subdifferential and multivalued maximal monotone operators, we prove the existence and uniqueness of a solution of the quasistatic problem in ℝn, (n = 2,3), with mixed boundary conditions.

AbstractWe survey recent results on the mathematical modeling of nonconvex and nonsmooth contact problems arising in mechanics and engineering. The approach to such problems is based on the notions of an operator subdifferential inclusion and a hemivariational inequality, and focuses on three aspects. First we report on results on the existence and uniqueness of solutions to subdifferential inclusions. Then we discuss two classes of quasi-static hemivariational ineqaulities, and finally, we present ideas leading to inequality problems with multivalued and nonmonotone boundary conditions encountered in mechanics.

In this paper, we introduce the concept of more general probabilistic contractors in probabilistic normed spaces and show the existence and uniqueness of solutions for set-valued and single-valued nonlinear operator equations in Menger probabilistic normed spaces.

Abstract The existence of distributional solutions is investigated for the time-dependent bending of a plate with transverse shear deformation under mixed boundary conditions. The problem is then reduced to nonstationary boundary integral equations and the existence and uniqueness of solutions to the latter are studied in appropriate Sobolev spaces.
