Abstract

In this paper, we deal with a class of inequality problems for dynamic frictional contact between a piezoelectric body and a foundation. The model consists of a system of the hemivariational inequality of hyperbolic type for the displacement, the time dependent elliptic equation for the electric potential. The friction condition is described to be the Clarke subdifferential relations of nonmonotone and multivalued character in the tangential directions on the boundary. The existence of a weak solution to the model is proved by embedding the problem into a class of second-order evolution inclusions, and by applying a surjectivity result for multivalued operators.
