In this paper is considered the following pseudo-parabolic equation in a Hilbert space \(H\): \[ B(du/dt)(t)+ Au(t)\ni f(t),\quad t\geq 0\tag{E} \] together with the initial condition \[ B^{1/2} u(0)= B^{1/2}u_0,\tag{IC} \] where \(A\) is a nonlinear \(m\)-accretive operator in \(H\) and \(B\) is a nonnegative selfadjoint operator in \(H\). Unlike some previous works, the authors establish an existence-uniqueness theorem of strong solutions of the initial value problem for (E), when \(B\) is not necessarily invertible and no inclusion relation between \(D(A)\) and \(D(B)\) is assumed. They show that the unique solution \(u_n(\cdot)\in C^1([0, T]; D(B))\) of an approximate equation for (E) \[ (1/n+ B)u_n'(t)+ A_n u_n(t)= f(t),\quad t\geq 0\tag{E\(_n\)} \] together with \[ u_n(0)= u_0,\tag{IC\(_n\)} \] where \(A_n\) is the Yoshida approximation of \(A\), converges to a solution \(u\) of (E), (IC) as \(n\) tends to infinity. The uniqueness of \(u\) can be obtained by a standard procedure. This result is applied to the initial-boundary value problem for some nonlinear partial differential equations.
