Abstract

We study the equation of a membrane with strong viscosity. Based on the variational formulation corresponding to the suitable function space setting, we have proved the fundamental results on existence, uniqueness and continuous dependence on data of weak solutions.

Keywords: equation of membrane with strong viscosity, weak solution, variational method
