We study an evolution problem which describes the quasistatic contact of a viscoelastic body with a foundation. We model the contact with normal damped response and a local friction law. We derive a variational formulation of the model and we establish the existence of a unique weak solution to the problem. The proof is based on monotone operators and fixed point arguments. We also establish the continuous dependence of the solution on the contact boundary conditions.
A. Cordero et. al (2010) considered a modified Newton-Jarratt's composition to solve nonlinear equations. In this study, using decomposition technique under weaker assumptions we extend the applicability of this method. Numerical examples where earlier results cannot apply to solve equations but our results can apply are also given in this study.
A discrete model of the two-dimensional Signorini problem with Coulomb friction and a coefficient of friction depending on the spatial variable is analysed. It is shown that a solution exists for any and is globally unique if is sufficiently small. The Lipschitz continuity of this unique solution as a function of as well as a function of the load vector is obtained. Furthermore, local uniqueness of solutions for arbitrary is studied. The question of existence of locally Lipschitz-continuous...
