Time decay of the solution to the Cauchy problem for a three-dimensional model of nonsimple thermoelasticity

This paper is devoted to the investigation of the solution to the Cauchy problem for a system of partial differential equations describing thermoelasticity of nonsimple materials in a three-dimensional space. The model of linear dynamical thermoelasticity of nonsimple materials is considered as the system of partial differential equations of fourth order. In this paper, we proposed a convenient evolutionary method of approach to the system of equations of nonsimple thermoelasticity. We proved the L^p−L^q time decay estimates for the solution to the Cauchy problem for linear thermoelasticity of nonsimple materials.
