Abstract This paper shows the existence of a unique weak solution of the following Dirichlet problem for a nonlinear Love equation ⎧ utt − uxx − εuxxtt = f (x, t, u, ux , ut , uxt ), 0 < x < L, 0 < t < T , ⎪ ⎪ ⎨ u(0, t) = u(L, t) = 0, ⎪ ⎪ ⎩ ut (x, 0) = u˜ 1 (x), u(x, 0) = u˜ 0 (x), where ε > 0 is a constant and u˜ 0 , u˜ 1 , f are given functions. This is done by combining the linearization method for a nonlinear term, the Faedo–Galerkin method and the weak compactness method.

1 Introduction In this paper, we consider the following Dirichlet problem for a nonlinear Love equation: utt − uxx − εuxxtt = f (x, t, u, ux , ut , uxt ),
0 < x < L, 0 < t < T ,
u(0, t) = u(L, t) = 0,
(2) ut (x, 0) = u˜ 1 (x),
u(x, 0) = u˜ 0 (x),

where ε > 0 is a constant and u˜ 0 , u˜ 1 , f are given functions satisfying the conditions specified later. When f = 0, Eq. (1) is related to the Love equation utt −

where the parameters in (5) have the following meanings: u is the displacement, L is the length of the rod, F is the area of cross section, k is the radius of cross section, E is the Young modulus of the material and ρ is the mass density. By using the Fourier method, Radochová [10] obtained a classical solution of Problem (4) associated with the initial conditions (3) and the following boundary conditions: u(0, t) = u(L, t) = 0, or
u(0, t) = 0, εuxtt (L, t) + c2 ux (L, t) = 0,

where c2 = Eρ , ε = 2μ2 k 2 . On the other hand, the asymptotic behavior of solutions for Problems (3), (4), (6) or (7) as ε → 0+ was also established by the method of small parameters. Equations of Love waves or equations for waves of Love type
