Abstract
A weak formulation for the so-called semilinear strongly damped wave equation with constraint is introduced and a corresponding notion of solution is de?ned. The main idea in this approach consists in the use of duality techniques in Sobolev-Bochner spaces, aimed at providing a suitable "relaxation" of the constraint term. A global in time existence result is proved under the natural condition that the initial data have finite "physical" energy.
