In the present paper, we are concerned with the semilinear viscoelastic wave equation in an inhomogeneous medium Ω subject to two localized dampings. The first one is of the type viscoelastic and is distributed around a neighborhood ω of the boundary according to the Geometric Control Condition. The second one is a frictional damping and we consider it hurting the geometric condition of control. We show that the energy of the wave equation goes uniformly and exponentially to zero for all initial data of finite energy taken in bounded sets of finite energy phase-space.

We are concerned in this paper with the initial boundary value problem for a quasilinear viscoelastic wave equation which is subject to a nonlinear action, to a nonlinear frictional damping, and to a Kelvin-Voigt damping, simultaneously. By utilizing a carefully chosen Lyapunov functional, we establish first by the celebrated convexity argument a finite time blow-up criterion for the initial boundary value problem in question; we prove second by an a priori estimate argument that some solutions to the problem exists globally if the nonlinearity is “weaker,” in a certain sense, than the frictional damping, and if the viscoelastic damping is sufficiently strong.

In this paper we consider a viscoelastic wave equation with a very general relaxation function and nonlinear frictional damping of variable-exponent type. We give explicit and general decay results for the energy of the system depending on the decay rate of the relaxation function and the nature of the variable-exponent nonlinearity. Our results extend the existing results in the literature to the case of nonlinear frictional damping of variable-exponent type.

We study the decay of the semigroup generated by the damped wave equation in an unbounded domain. We first prove under the natural geometric control condition the exponential decay of the semigroup. Then we prove under a weaker condition the logarithmic decay of the solutions (assuming that the initial data are smoother). As corollaries, we obtain several extensions of previous results of stabilization and control.

<p style='text-indent:20px;'>In this paper, we consider a Balakrishnan-Taylor viscoelastic wave equation with nonlinear frictional damping and logarithmic source term. By assuming a more general type of relaxation functions, we establish explicit and general decay rate results, using the multiplier method and some properties of the convex functions. This result is new and generalizes earlier results in the literature.</p>

Abstract We generalize a notion of ‘conserved’ charges given by Wald and Zoupas to the asymptotically de Sitter spacetimes. Surprisingly, our construction is less ambiguous than the one encountered in the asymptotically flat context. An expansion around exact solutions possessing Killing vectors provides their physical meaning. In particular, we discuss a question of how to define energy and angular momenta of gravitational waves propagating on Kottler and Carter backgrounds. We show that obtained expressions have a correct limit as Λ → 0. We also comment on the relation between this approach and the one based on the canonical phase space of initial data at ℐ+.
