Variational-Hemivariational Inequalities with Applications – hinnat ja saatavuus

Variational-Hemivariational Inequalities with Applications, Second Edition represents the outcome of the cross-fertilization of nonlinear functional analysis and mathematical modelling, demonstrating its application to solid and contact mechanics. Based on authors’ original results, the book illustrates the use of various functional methods (including monotonicity, pseudomonotonicity, compactness, penalty and fixed-point methods) in the study of various nonlinear problems in analysis and mechanics. The classes of history-dependent operators and almost history-dependent operators are exposed in a large generality. A systematic and unified presentation contains a carefully selected collection of new results on variational-hemivariational inequalities with or without unilateral constraints. A wide spectrum of static, quasistatic, dynamic contact problems for elastic, viscoelastic and viscoplastic materials illustrates the applicability of these theoretical results. Written for mathematicians, applied mathematicians, engineers and scientists, this book is also a valuable tool for graduate students and researchers in nonlinear analysis, mathematical modelling, mechanics of solids, and contact mechanics.
