We consider a mathematical problem for quasistatic contact between a thermo-electro--elastic-viscoplastic body and an obstacle. The contact is modeled by a general normal damped response condition with friction law and heat exchange. We present a variational formulation of the problem and prove the existence and uniqueness of the weak solution. The proof is based on the formulation of four intermediate problems for the displacement field, the electric potential field and the temperature field, respectively. We prove the unique solvability of the intermediate problems, then we construct a contraction mapping whose unique fixed point is the solution of the original problem.

In this paper, a mathematical model which describes the explicit time dependent quasistatic frictional contact problems is introduced and studied. The material behavior is described with a nonlinear viscoelastic constitutive law with time-delay and the frictional contact is modeled with nonlocal Coulomb boundary conditions. A variational formulation of the mathematical model is given, which is called a quasistatic integro-differential variational inequality. Using the Banach's fixed point theorem, an existence and uniqueness theorem of the solution for the quasistatic integro-differential variational inequality is proved under some suitable assumptions. As an application, an existence and uniqueness theorem of the solution for the dual variational formulation is also given.

We study a quasistatic problem describing the contact with friction and wear between a piezoelectric body and a moving foundation. The material is modeled by an electro-viscoelastic constitutive law with long memory and damage. The wear of the contact surface due to friction is taken into account and is described by the differential Archard condition. The contact is modeled with the normal compliance condition and the associated law of dry friction. We present a variational formulation of the problem and establish, under a smallness assumption on the data, the existence and uniqueness of the weak solution. The proof is based on arguments of parabolic evolutionary inequations, elliptic variational inequalities and Banach fixed point.

Abstract In this paper we study a new abstract evolutionary variational–hemivariational inequality which involves unilateral constraints and history–dependent operators. First, we prove the existence and uniqueness of solution by using a mixed equilibrium formulation with suitable selected functions together with a fixed-point principle for history–dependent operators. Then, we apply the abstract result to show the unique weak solvability to a dynamic viscoelastic frictional contact problem. The contact law involves a unilateral Signorini-type condition for the normal velocity combined with 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.

AbstractIn the present paper, we study inverse problems for a class of nonlinear hemivariational inequalities. We prove the existence and uniqueness of a solution to inverse problems. Finally, we introduce an inverse problem for an electro-elastic frictional contact problem to illustrate our results.

Abstract The aim of this paper is to study a quasistatic contact problem between an electro-elastic viscoplastic body with damage and an electrically conductive foundation. The contact is modelled with an electrical condition, normal compliance and the associated version of Coulomb’s law of dry friction in which slip dependent friction is included. We derive a variational formulation for the model and, under a smallness assumption, we prove the existence and uniqueness of a weak solution.

<p>This paper presents an approximate method that depends on the Bernoulli Polynomials as basic functions. The method is concerned with collocation technique for solving problems in calculus of variation. Some interesting properties of Bernoulli polynomials are used to reduce the original problem to mathematical problem. Some illustrative examples are described to show the applicability of the proposed method.</p>

Abstract In this paper we introduce a new fuzzy contraction mapping and prove that such mappings have fixed point in $\tau$-complete fuzzy metric spaces. As an application, we shall utilize the results obtained to show the existence and uniqueness of random solution for the following random linear random operator equation. Moreover, we shall show that the existence and uniqueness of the solutions for nonlinear Volterra integral equations on a kind of particular fuzzy metric space.

We study singular fractional systems of nonlinear differential equations involving 3n-Caputo derivatives. We investigate existence and uniqueness results using the contraction mapping principle. We also discuss the existence of at least one solution by means of Schauder fixed point theorem. Moreover, we define and discuss the Ulam–Hyers stability and the generalized Ulam–Hyers stability of solutions for such systems. To illustrate the main results, we present some examples.

This paper derives a general sufficient condition for existence and uniqueness in continuous games using a variant of the contraction mapping theorem applied to mappings from a subset of the real line on to itself. We first prove this contraction mapping variant, and then show how the existence of a unique equilibrium in the general game can be shown by proving the existence of a unique equilibrium in an iterative sequence of games involving such mappings. Finally, we show how a general condition for this to occur is that a matrix derived from the Jacobian matrix of best-response functions has positive leading principal minors, and how this condition generalises some existing uniqueness theorems for particular games. In particular, we show how the same conditions used in those theorems to show uniqueness, also guarantee existence in games with unbounded strategy spaces.
