This is the first research monograph to focus on variational inequalities as part of nonsmooth variational systems research. The authors discuss partial differential equations, variational equations, variational and hemivariational inequalities, and related topics. With a wealth of problems and techniques from nonlinear and nonsmooth analysis, this versatile text is an important reference for mathematicians working in analysis, partial differential equations, elasticity, materials science and mechanics applications, as well as for physicists and engineers. It can serve as a main or supplemental text for a variety of specialized nonlinear analysis courses.
