Quasistatic evolution of damage in an elastic-viscoplastic material

The mathematical theory of quasistatic elastic viscoplastic models with damage is studied. The existence of the unique local weak solution is established by using approximate problems and a priori estimates. Pointwise estimates on the damage are obtained using a new comparison technique which re...
