Systems Of Nonlinear Wave Equations With Damping And Supercritical Sources, Yanqiu Guo Apr 2012

Systems Of Nonlinear Wave Equations With Damping And Supercritical Sources, Yanqiu Guo

Department of Mathematics: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research

We consider the local and global well-posedness of the coupled nonlinear wave equations

utt – Δu + g1(ut) = f1(u, v)

vtt – Δv + g2(vt) = f2(u, v);

in a bounded domain Ω subset of the real numbers (Rn) with a nonlinear Robin boundary condition on u and a zero boundary conditions on v. The nonlinearities f1(u, v) and f2(u, v) are with supercritical exponents …


Global Well-Posedness For A Nonlinear Wave Equation With P-Laplacian Damping, Zahava Wilstein May 2011

Global Well-Posedness For A Nonlinear Wave Equation With P-Laplacian Damping, Zahava Wilstein

Department of Mathematics: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research

This dissertation deals with the global well-posedness of the nonlinear wave equation
utt − Δu − Δput = f (u) in Ω × (0,T),
{u(0), ut(0)} = {u0,u1} ∈ H10 (Ω) × L 2 (Ω),
u = 0 on Γ × (0, T ),
in a bounded domain Ω ⊂ ℜ n with Dirichlét boundary conditions. The nonlinearities f (u) acts as a strong source, which is allowed to …
