A blowup result in a multidimensional semilinear thermoelastic system.
We establish the blow-up of solutions to the Kirchhoff equation of q-Laplacian type with a nonlinear dissipative term , x ∈ Ω, t > 0.
We consider a special type of a one-dimensional quasilinear wave equation w - phi (w / w) w = 0 in a bounded domain with Dirichlet boundary conditions and show that classical solutions blow up in finite time even for small initial data in some norm.
We consider an initial boundary value problem for the equation . We first prove local and global existence results under suitable conditions on f and g. Then we show that weak solutions decay either algebraically or exponentially depending on the rate of growth of g. This result improves and includes earlier decay results established by the authors.
