Global and exponential attractors for 3‐D wave equations with displacement dependent damping

A weakly damped wave equation in the three‐dimensional (3‐D) space with a damping coefficient depending on the displacement is studied. This equation is shown to generate a dissipative semigroup in the energy phase space, which possesses finite‐dimensional global and exponential attractors in a slightly weaker topology.

Global attractors for wave equations with nonlinear interior damping and critical exponents

In this paper we study the global attractors for wave equations with nonlinear interior damping. We prove the existence, regularity and finite dimensionality of the global attractors without assuming a large value for the damping parameter, when the growth of the nonlinear terms is critical.     

Global attractors for von Karman equations with nonlinear interior dissipation

In this paper we study the asymptotic behavior of weak solutions for von Karman equations with nonlinear interior dissipation. We prove the existence of a global attractor in the space .     

Global attractors for the viscous hyperelastic‐rod wave equation

We consider the viscous hyperelastic‐rod wave equation subject to an external force, where the viscous term is given by second order differential operator in divergence form. Under some mild assumptions on the viscous term, first, we establish the global well‐posedness in both the periodic case and the case of the whole line, afterwards, we show the existence of global attractors for the two cases, respectively.

Global smooth solution for the modified anisotropic 3D Boussinesq equations with damping

This paper is mainly concerned with the modified anisotropic three-dimensional Boussinesq equations with damping. We first prove the existence and uniqueness of global solution of velocity anisotropic equations. Then we establish the well-posedness of global solution of temperature anisotropic equations.     

Global existence of solutions for quasi-linear wave equations with viscous damping

In this paper, the global existence of solutions to the initial boundary value problem for a class of quasi-linear wave equations with viscous damping and source terms is studied by using a combination of Galerkin approximations, compactness, and monotonicity methods.     

Pullback attractors of 2D Navier–Stokes equations with weak damping,distributed delay,and continuous delay

In this present paper, the existence of pullback attractors for the 2D Navier–Stokes equation with weak damping, distributed delay, and continuous delay has been considered, by virtue of classical Galerkin's method, we derived the existence and uniqueness of global weak and strong solutions. Using the Aubin–Lions lemma and some energy estimate in the Banach space with delay, we obtained the uniform bounded and existence of uniform pullback absorbing ball for the solution semi‐processes; we concluded the pullback attractors via verifying the pullback asymptotical compactness by the generalized Arzelà–Ascoli theorem.

Blow‐up for wave equation with the scale‐invariant damping and combined nonlinearities

In this article, we study the blow‐up of the damped wave equation in the scale‐invariant case and in the presence of two nonlinearities. More precisely, we consider the following equation: $$u_{tt}?\mathrm{\Delta }u+\frac{\mu }{1+t}{u}_t=|u_t{|}^p+|u{|}^q,\text{in}{?}^N\times [0,\infty ),$$ with small initial data. For $\mu <\frac{N(q?1)}{2}$ and μ ∈ (0, μ_?) , where μ_? > 0 is depending on the nonlinearties' powers and the space dimension (μ_? satisfies $(q?1)\left((N+2{\mu }_{?}?1)p?2\right)=4$), we prove that the wave equation, in this case, behaves like the one without dissipation (μ = 0 ). Our result completes the previous studies in the case where the dissipation is given by $\frac{\mu }{{(1+t)}^{\beta }}{u}_t;\beta >1$, where, contrary to what we obtain in the present work, the effect of the damping is not significant in the dynamics. Interestingly, in our case, the influence of the damping term $\frac{\mu }{1+t}{u}_t$ is important.     

Global random attractors for the stochastic dissipative Zakharov equations

The stochastic dissipative Zakharov equations with white noise are mainly investigated. The global random attractors endowed with usual topology for the stochastic dissipative Zakharov equations are obtained in the sense of usual norm. The method is to transform the stochastic equations into the corresponding partial differential equations with random coefficients by Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process. The crucial compactness of the global random attractors wiil be obtained by decomposition of solutions.     

Well‐posedness for the 2‐D damped wave equations with exponential source terms

In this paper we study well‐posedness of the damped nonlinear wave equation in Ω × (0, ∞) with initial and Dirichlet boundary condition, where Ω is a bounded domain in ?²; ω?0, ωλ₁+µ>0 with λ₁ being the first eigenvalue of ?Δ under zero boundary condition. Under the assumptions that g(·) is a function with exponential growth at the infinity and the initial data lie in some suitable sets we establish several results concerning local existence, global existence, uniqueness and finite time blow‐up property and uniform decay estimates of the energy.

Uniform attractors for a nonautonomous extensible plate equation with a strong damping

In this paper, we study the long‐time dynamics of solutions to a nonlinear nonautonomous extensible plate equation with a strong damping. Under some suitable assumptions on the initial data, the nonlinear term and external force, we establish the existence of global solutions that generate a family of processes for the problem and obtain uniform attractors corresponding to strong and weak symbol spaces in a bounded domain .

Global exact boundary controllability for 1‐D quasilinear wave equations

Based on the local exact boundary controllability for 1‐D quasilinear wave equations, the global exact boundary controllability for 1‐D quasilinear wave equations in a neighborbood of any connected set of constant equilibria is obtained by an extension method. Similar results are also given for a kind of general 1‐D quasilinear hyperbolic equations. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Global attractor for the one dimensional wave equation with displacement dependent damping

We study the long-time behavior of solutions of the one dimensional wave equation with nonlinear damping coefficient. We prove that if the damping coefficient function is strictly positive near the origin then this equation possesses a global attractor.     

Some remarks on quasilinear wave equations with null condition in 3‐D

In this paper, we give an alternative proof to the global existence result, which is originally owing to the pioneering work of Klainerman and Christodoulou, for the Cauchy problem of quasilinear wave equations with null condition in three space dimensions. The proof can display the following three features simultaneously: the Lorentz boost operator is not employed in the generalized energy estimates; the generalized energy of the solution will be always small, which was first observed by Alinhac; and the initial data are not assumed to have a compact support.

Pullback attractors for non-autonomous reaction-diffusion equations with dynamical boundary conditions

In this paper we prove the existence and uniqueness of a weak solution for a non-autonomous reaction-diffusion model with dynamical boundary conditions. After that, a continuous dependence result is established via an energy method, including in particular some compactness properties. Finally, the precedent results are used in order to ensure the existence of minimal pullback attractors in the frameworks of universes of fixed bounded sets and that given by a tempered growth condition. The relation among these families is also discussed.     

Finite dimensionality and regularity of attractors for a 2-D semilinear wave equation with nonlinear dissipation

We consider a semilinear wave equation, defined on a two-dimensional bounded domain Ω, with a nonlinear dissipation. Our main result is that the flow generated by the model is attracted by a finite dimensional global attractor. In addition, this attractor has additional regularity properties that depend on regularity properties of nonlinear functions in the equation. To our knowledge this is a first result of this type in the context of higher dimensional wave equations.
