Well-posedness of evolutionary differential variational–hemivariational inequalities and applications to frictional contact mechanics (15.03.2024)
In this paper, we develop a general framework for an evolutionary variational-hemivariational inequality coupled with a differential equation. The framework is adapted to a frictional contact problem with applications in earth sciences. In here we present an approximation of the so-called rate-and-state friction law and prove that the coupled system is well-posed.
