This work is concerned with the study of the flow of an incompressible viscoelastic fluid of White-Metzner type. These models lead to systems of partial differential equations that are evolutionary, are globally well posed. The objective of this article is to prove the local and global existence of solutions of these systems.

This paper is devoted to the existence of conformal metrics on $S^3$ with prescribed scalar curvature. We extend well known existence criteria due to Bahri-Coron.

We consider a two dimensional elastic body submitted to unilateral contact conditions, local friction and adhesion on a part of his boundary. After discretizing the variational formulation with respect to time we use a smoothing technique to approximate the friction term by an auxiliary problem. A shifting technique enables us to obtain the existence of incremental solutions with bounds independent of the regularization parameter. We finally obtain the existence of a quasistatic solution...

We give existence theorems for weak and strong solutions with trichotomy of the nonlinear differential equation $$\dot{x}\left(t\right)=ℒ\left(t\right)x\left(t\right)+f(t,x\left(t\right)),t\in ℝ\left(\mathrm{P}\right)$$ where $\left\{ℒ\right(t):t\in ℝ\}$ is a family of linear operators from a Banach space $E$ into itself and $f:ℝ\times E\to E$. By $L\left(E\right)$ we denote the space of linear operators from $E$ into itself. Furthermore, for $a<b$ and $d>0$, we let $C\left(\right[-d,0],E)$ be the Banach space of continuous functions from $[-d,0]$ into $E$ and $f^d:[a,b]\times C([-d,0],E)\to E$. Let $\widehat{ℒ}:[a,b]\to L\left(E\right)$ be a strongly measurable and Bochner integrable operator on $[a,b]$ and for $t\in [a,b]$ define ${\tau }_{t}x\left(s\right)=x(t+s)$ for each $s\in [-d,0]$. We prove that, under certain conditions,...

We present two existence results for the Dirichlet elliptic inclusion with an upper semicontinuous multivalued right-hand side in exponential-type Orlicz spaces involving a vector Laplacian, subject to Dirichlet boundary conditions on a domain Ω⊂ ℝ². The first result is obtained via the multivalued version of the Leray-Schauder principle together with the Nakano-Dieudonné sequential weak compactness criterion. The second result is obtained by using the nonsmooth variational technique together with...

This paper is concerned with the study of a nonlocal nonlinear parabolic problem associated with the equation $u_t-M\left({\int }_{\Omega }\phi u\mathrm{d}x\right)\mathrm{div}\left(A(x,t,u)\nabla u\right)=g(x,t,u)$ in $\Omega \times (0,T)$, where $\Omega$ is a bounded domain of ${ℝ}^n$$(n\ge 1)$,...
