186 Complementarity and Variational Inequalities in Electronics

Remark 37. The subject of this book can be developed in several directions.
The formulation of circuits involving devices like thyristors with nonmonotone
ampere–volt characteristics lead to the study of hemivariational inequalities. The
theory of hemivariational inequalities has been well developed in mechanics
(see e.g. [70], [73]). Further results should be proposed so as to study problems
in electronics like in this book. The results in [6] provide some ideas for further
study.
