Hemivariational Inequalities

Mehr zum Buch

This book explores the formulation and numerical analysis of static and dynamic problems in mechanics and engineering that involve complex energy functions and multivalued stress-strain laws. It introduces hemivariational inequalities and presents innovative numerical methods to tackle real-world engineering challenges, such as adhesive contact in cracks and delamination issues. Additionally, it discusses the mathematical foundations, existence results, and optimal control problems related to these inequalities, concluding with applications in fractal geometries and neural network approaches.
