The goal of this paper is to study a mathematical model which describes the adhesive contact between a deformable body and a foundation. The body consists of a viscoelastic material with long memory and the process is assumed to be quasistatic. The adhesive contact condition on the normal plane is modeled by a version of normal compliance condition with unilateral constraint in which adhesion is taken into account, the adhesive contact condition on the tangential plane is described by an adhesive Clarke subdifferential condition, and the evolution of the bonding field is described by an ordinary differential equation. We derive the variational formulation of this problem which is a system of a variational-hemivariational inequality for the displacement field and an ordinary differential equation for the bonding field. Then, we obtain existence and uniqueness results on abstract inclusions and abstract variational-hemivariational inequalities. Finally, we apply the abstract results to prove the existence of a unique weak solution to the contact problem.
