- (mathematics) Pertaining to a generalization of variational inequalities which covers boundary value problems for partial differential equations with nonmonotone, nonconvex and possibly multivalued laws.

- The variational formulation of this problem leads to hemivariational inequality with a nonsmooth functional defined on the contact boundary.
