Asymptotic Behavior for Global Smooth Solution to a One-dimensional Nonlinear Thermoviscoelastic System

This paper is concerned with asymptotic behavior, as time tends to infinity, of globally defined smooth (large) solutions to the system in one-dimensional nonlinear thermoviscoelasticity. Our results show that the global smooth solution approaches to the solution in the H¹ norm to the corresponding stationary problem, as time tends to infinity.
