We prove the existence and uniform decay rates of global solutions for a hyperbolic system with a discontinuous and nonlinear multi-valued term and a nonlinear memory source term on the boundary.

We consider the damped semilinear viscoelastic wave equation $$u^{\text{'}\text{'}}-\Delta u+{\int }_0^{t}h(t-\tau )div\left\{a\nabla u\left(\tau \right)\right\}\mathrm{d}\tau +g\left(u^{\text{'}}\right)=0\text{in}\Omega \times (0,\infty )$$ with nonlocal boundary dissipation. The existence of global solutions is proved by means of the Faedo-Galerkin method and the uniform decay rate of the energy is obtained by following the perturbed energy method provided that the kernel of the memory decays exponentially.

Let $\Omega$ be a bounded domain in ${ℝ}^n$ with a smooth boundary $\Gamma$. In this work we study the existence of solutions for the following boundary value problem: $$\frac{{\partial }^{2}y}{\partial t^2}-M\left({\int }_{\Omega }{\left|\nabla y\right|}^2\mathrm{d}x\right)\Delta y-\frac{\partial }{\partial t}\Delta y=f\left(y\right)\text{in}Q=\Omega \times (0,\infty ),.1y=0\text{in}{\Sigma }_1={\Gamma }_1\times (0,\infty ),M\left({\int }_{\Omega }{\left|\nabla y\right|}^2\mathrm{d}x\right)\frac{\partial y}{\partial \nu }+\frac{\partial }{\partial t}\left(\frac{\partial y}{\partial \nu }\right)=g\text{in}{\Sigma }_0={\Gamma }_0\times (0,\infty ),y\left(0\right)=y_0,\frac{\partial y}{\partial t}\left(0\right)=y_1\text{in}\Omega ,\left(1\right)$$ where $M$ is a $C^1$-function such that $M\left(\lambda \right)\ge {\lambda }_0>0$ for every $\lambda \ge 0$ and $f\left(y\right)={\left|y\right|}^{\alpha }y$ for $\alpha \ge 0$.

In this paper we consider the existence and asymptotic behavior of solutions of the following problem: $$u_{tt}{(t,x)-(\alpha +\beta \parallel \nabla u(t,x)\parallel }_2^2+{\beta \parallel \nabla v(t,x)\parallel }_2^2)\Delta u(t,x)+\delta |u_t{(t,x)|}^{p-1}{u}_t(t,x)={\mu \left|u(t,x)\right|}^{q-1}u(t,x),x\in \Omega ,t\ge 0,v_{tt}{(t,x)-(\alpha +\beta \parallel \nabla u(t,x)\parallel }_2^2+{\beta \parallel \nabla v(t,x)\parallel }_2^2)\Delta v(t,x)+\delta |v_t{(t,x)|}^{p-1}{v}_t(t,x)={\mu \left|v(t,x)\right|}^{q-1}v(t,x),x\in \Omega ,t\ge 0,u(0,x)=u_0\left(x\right),u_t(0,x)=u_1\left(x\right),x\in \Omega ,v(0,x)=v_0\left(x\right),v_t(0,x)=v_1\left(x\right),x\in \Omega ,u{{|}_{{}_{\partial \Omega }}=v|}_{{}_{\partial \Omega }}=0$$ where $q>1$, $p\ge 1$, $\delta >0$, $\alpha >0$, $\beta \ge 0$, $\mu \in ℝ$ and $\Delta$ is the Laplacian in ${ℝ}^N$.

In this paper we consider the optimal control of both operators and parameters for uncertain systems. For the optimal control and identification problem, we show existence of an optimal solution and present necessary conditions of optimality.

In this paper, the observability of fuzzy logic second order control system is studied from the aspect of fuzzy differential equations. The fuzzy observability in the weak sense is created using the concept of “likelihood” to indicate on which level and along which solution the state is most likely observable. One of the initial state range has been derived with the given input and output. The result generalizes the previous results.

In this paper we deal with the anti-periodic boundary value problems with nonlinearity of the form $b\left(u\right)$, where $b\in L_{\mathrm{loc}}^{\infty }\left(R\right).$ Extending $b$ to be multivalued we obtain the existence of solutions to hemivariational inequality and variational-hemivariational inequality.

In this paper, we prove the exact null controllability of certain diffusion system by rewriting it as an equivalent nonlinear parabolic integrodifferential equation with variable coefficients in a bounded interval of $ℝ$ with a distributed control acting on a subinterval. We first prove a global null controllability result of an associated linearized integrodifferential equation by establishing a suitable observability estimate for adjoint system with appropriate assumptions on the coefficients.
