Abstract

In this paper, a mathematical model which describes the explicit time dependent quasistatic frictional contact problems is introduced and studied. The material behavior is described with a nonlinear viscoelastic constitutive law with time-delay and the frictional contact is modeled with nonlocal Coulomb boundary conditions. A variational formulation of the mathematical model is given, which is called a quasistatic integro-differential variational inequality. Using the Banach's fixed point theorem, an existence and uniqueness theorem of the solution for the quasistatic integro-differential variational inequality is proved under some suitable assumptions. As an application, an existence and uniqueness theorem of the solution for the dual variational formulation is also given.
