The paper deals with the mixed nonlinear hyperbolic problem \[ |u_t|^\rho u_{tt} - \triangle u - \triangle u_{tt} + G(u) = f \text{ in } Q, \tag{1} \] \[ u= 0\text{ on } \Sigma, \tag{2} \] \[ u(0) = u^0, \;u_t(0) = u^1, \tag{3} \] where \(Q\) is a noncylindrical domain with lateral boundary \(\Sigma\), \(\rho \geq 2\) and \(G(s)\) is a continuous function satisfying certain growth conditions. The authors prove existence of global weak solutions of (1)--(3) under the hypothesis that the domain \(Q\) is monotone increasing. To this end the penalty method and the Feado-Galerkin method are used together with some compactness arguments. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0914.00066].
