Title: Variational-Hemivariational Inequalities: Theory, Numerical Analysis, and Applications

Abstract: In recent years, modeling, mathematical analysis, and numerical solution of hemivariational inequalities, or more generally, variational-hemivariational inequalities, have attracted much attention in the research communities. Through the formulation of variational-hemivariational inequalities, application problems involving nonsmooth, monotone or non-monotone, multivalued constitutive laws...
