Abstract
We give an abstract interpretation of initial boundary value problems for hyperbolic equations such that a part of initial boundary value conditions contains also a differentiation on the time t of the same order as equations. The case of stable solutions of abstract hyperbolic equations is treated. Then we show applications of obtained abstract results to hyperbolic differential equations which, in particular, may represent the longitudinal displacements of an inhomogeneous rod under the action of forces at the two ends which are proportional to the acceleration.
