On a Non Local Initial Boundary Value Problem for a Semi-Linear Pseudo-Hyperbolic Equation in the Theory of Vibration

This research article addresses a nonclassical initial boundary value problem characterized by a non-local constraint within the framework of a pseudo-hyperbolic equation. Employing rigorous analytical techniques, the paper establishes the existence, uniqueness, and continuous dependence of a strong solution to the problem at hand. With respect to the associated linear problem, the uniqueness of its solution is ascertained through an energy inequality, which provides an a priori bound for the solution. Moreover, the solvability of this linear problem is verified by proving that the operator range engendered by the problem is indeed dense. Extending the analysis to the nonlinear problem, an iterative methodology is utilized. This approach is predicated on the insights gained from the linear problem and facilitates the demonstration of both the existence and uniqueness of a solution for the nonlinear problem under study. Consequently, the paper contributes a robust mathematical framework for solving both linear and nonlinear variants of complex initial boundary value problems with non-local constraints.
