The global existence of mild solutions is established under various growth and compactness conditions. The case of a nonlocal initial condition is addressed. A related convergence result is discussed, and the theory is applied to stochastic wave and beam equations, as well as a spring-mass system, for illustrative purposes.en-USCosine familySecond-order equationFractional Brownian motionStochastic evolution equationText
