INTRODUCTION
In investigating mathematical models of nonlinear processes and fields of the nonlinearized theory of viscoelasticity
and piezoelectrics and studying waves of different nature, the following scheme is often used: such a model is reduced to
some differential-operator inclusion or a multivariational inequality in an infinite-dimensional space [1–3]. Next, using some
method of approximation or other, the existence of a generalized solution of this problem is proved, constructive methods of
searching for approximate solutions are substantiated, and functional-topological properties of the resolving operator [2] are
studied. If the character of the mentioned process is evolutionary, its mathematical model is described with the help of a
second-order differential-operator inclusion [4–6]. In this case, relationships between key parameters of the original problem
provide definite properties for a multivalued (in the general case) mapping in the differential-operator scheme of
investigation. We note that, in the majority of works devoted to this line of investigation, rather stringent conditions
connected with uniform coercitivity, boundedness, and generalized pseudo-monotonicity are imposed on “damping” [4, 6].
As a rule, these conditions not only provide the existence of solutions for such problems but also guarantee the dissipation of
all solutions and sometimes the existence of a global compact attractor, which does not always naturally reflect the actual
behavior of the geophysical process or field being considered [7]. Therefore, the need arises for the investigation of
functional-topological properties of the resolving operator for a differential-operator inclusion that describe, in particular,
new wider classes of nonlinear processes and fields of the nonlinearized theory of viscoelasticity with an adequate essential
weakening of the above-mentioned properties of differential operators with corresponding applications to concrete
mathematical models.
In this work, problems of analysis and control of second-order differential-operator inclusions with weakly coercive

investigated, and an optimal control problem is considered. The results obtained are applied to mathematical models of the
nonlinearized theory of viscoelasticity.
