Existence of weak solutions for a hyperbolic-parabolic phase field system with mixed boundary conditions on non-smooth domains

The aim of this paper is to prove existence of weak solutions of hyperbolic-parabolic evolution inclusions defined on Lipschitz domains with mixed boundary conditions describing, for instance, damage processes and elasticity with inertia terms. To this end, a suitable weak formulation to deal with such evolution inclusions in a non-smooth setting is presented. Then, existence of weak solutions is proven by utilizing time-discretization, $H^2$-regularization of the displacement variable and variational techniques from [C. Heinemann, C. Kraus: Existence results of weak solutions for Cahn-Hilliard systems coupled with elasticity and damage. Adv. Math. Sci. Appl. 21 (2011), 321--359] to recover the subgradients after the limit passages.
