In this paper, by means of operator-differential inclusions, the existence problem for solutions of ``strong'' nonstationary variational inequalities is studied. The author suggests new conditions under which the set of solutions of the inclusion \(Ly+A(y)\ni f\) is nonempty and weakly compact. Here, \(L:W\subset X \mapsto X^*\) is a linear and maximal monotonic operator defined on an affine subspace \(W\) densely imbedded into a reflexive Banach space \(X\), and \(A:X \mapsto \text{Conv}(X^*)\) is a quasibounded multivalued operator with certain special properties. The abstract results are applied to the following problem: \[ \begin{gathered} y_t-\langle \nabla,{\mathbf a}(t,{\mathbf x},\nabla y)\rangle =f,\quad(t,{\mathbf x})\in (0,T)\times \Omega;\\ y|_{t=0}=0; \quad y\geq 0, \frac{\partial y}{\partial \nu_A}\geq 0, y\frac{\partial y}{\partial \nu_A}=0, (t,{\mathbf x})\in (0,T)\times \partial \Omega, \end{gathered} \] where \(\frac{\partial y}{\partial \nu_A}:=\langle {\mathbf a}(t,{\mathbf x},\nabla y),\nu({\mathbf x})\rangle \), and \(\nu({\mathbf x})\) denotes the external normal to \(\partial \Omega \) at a point \({\mathbf x}\in \partial \Omega \).
