Existence and asymptotic results for a system of integro-partial differential equations

A non-Fourier phase field model is considered. A global existence result for a Dirichlet, or generalized Neumann, initial-boundary value problem is obtained, followed by a discussion of the regularity and asymptotic properties of solutions ast.This research was supported in part by the National Science Foundation under Grant DMS 91-11794 and in part by the Italian M.U.R.S.T. project Problemi non lineari...Part of this author's work was done while visiting Ohio University.
