Abstract

In this paper, we consider a dynamic viscoelastic contact problem with friction and wear, and describe it as a system of nonlinear partial differential equations. We formulate the previous problem as a hyperbolic quasi-variational inequality by employing the variational method. We adopt the Rothe method to show the existence and uniqueness of weak solution for the hyperbolic quasi-variational inequality under mild conditions. We also give a fully discrete scheme for solving the hyperbolic quasi-variational inequality and obtain error estimates for the fully discrete scheme.
