Problems of existence and nonexistence of global nontrivial solutions to quasilinear evolution differential inequalities in a product of cones are investigated. The proofs of the nonexistence results are based on the test-function method developed, for the case of the whole space, by Mitidieri, Pohozaev, Tesei and Véron. The existence result is established using the method of supersolutions.
In this paper we consider a nonlinear Love equation associated with Dirichlet conditions. First, under suitable conditions, the existence of a unique local weak solution is proved. Next, a blow up result for solutions with negative initial energy is also established. Finally, a sufficient condition guaranteeing the global existence and exponential decay of weak solutions is given. The proofs are based on the linearization method, the Galerkin method associated with a priori estimates, weak convergence,...
We consider the existence, both locally and globally in time, the decay and the blow up of the solution for the extensible beam equation with nonlinear damping and source terms. We prove the existence of the solution by Banach contraction mapping principle. The decay estimates of the solution are proved by using Nakao’s inequality. Moreover, under suitable conditions on the initial datum, we prove that the solution blow up in finite time.
We consider the flow of gas through pipelines controlled by a compressor station. Under a subsonic flow assumption we prove the existence of classical solutions for a given finite time interval. The existence result is used to construct Riemannian feedback laws and to prove a stabilization result for a coupled system of gas pipes with a compressor station. We introduce a Lyapunov function and prove exponential decay with respect to the L2-norm.
