Hemivariational inequalities have been successfully employed for mathematical and numerical studies of application problems involving nonsmooth, nonmonotone and multivalued relations. In recent years, error estimates have been derived for numerical solutions of hemivariational inequalities under additional solution regularity assumptions. Since the solution regularity properties have not been rigorously proved for hemivariational inequalities, it is important to explore the convergence of numerical solutions of hemivariational inequalities without assuming additional solution regularity. In this paper, we present a general convergence result enhancing existing results in the literature. Ausführliche Beschreibung
