Decay of the 3D Quasilinear Hyperbolic Equations with Nonlinear Damping

We investigate the 3D quasilinear hyperbolic equations with nonlinear damping which describes the propagation of heat wave for rigid solids at very low temperature, below about 20 K. The global existence and uniqueness of strong solutions are obtained when the initial data is near its equilibrium in the sense of H3-norm. Furthermore, if, additionally, Lp-norm (1≤p<6/5) of the initial perturbation is finite, we also prove the optimal Lp-L2 decay rates for such a solution without the additional technical assumptions for the nonlinear damping f(v) given by Li and Saxton.

Boundary effects and large-time behaviour for quasilinear equations with nonlinear damping

This paper is concerned with the asymptotic behaviour of solutions to quasilinear hyperbolic equations with nonlinear damping on the quarter-plane (x, t) ∈ ℝ+ x ∈ ℝ+. We obtain the Lp (1 ≤ p ≤ +∞) convergence rates of the solution to the quasilinear hyperbolic equations without the additional technical assumptions for the nonlinear damping f(v) given by Li and Saxton.
