Weak Solutions to the Initial Boundary Value Problem of a Semilinear Wave Equation with Damping and Source Terms
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper we show local existence of solutions to the initial boundary value problem corresponding to a semilinear wave equation with interior damping and source terms. The difficulty in dealing with these two competitive forces comes from the fact that the source term is not a locally Lipschitz function from H1(Ω) into L2(Ω) as typically assumed in the literature. The strategy behind the proof is based on the physics of the problem, so it does not use the damping present in the equation. The arguments are natural and adaptable to other settings/other PDEs.

متن کاملExistence of Weak Solutions to the Cauchy Problem of a Semilinear Wave Equation with Supercritical Interior Source and Damping
In this paper we show existence of finite energy solutions for the Cauchy problem associated with a semilinear wave equation with interior damping and supercritical source terms. The main contribution consists in dealing with super-supercritical source terms (terms of the order of |u|p with p ≥ 5 in n = 3 dimensions), an open and highly recognized problem in the literature on nonlinear wave equ...
متن کاملStrong Solutions for Semilinear Wave Equations with Damping and Source Terms
This paper deals with local existence of strong solutions for semilinear wave equations with power-like interior damping and source terms. A long standing restriction on the range of exponents for the two nonlinearities governs the literature on wellposedness of weak solutions of finite energy. We show that this restriction may be eliminated for the existence of higher regularity solutions by e...

*Correspondence: [email protected] School of Mathematical Sciences, Ocean University of China, Qingdao, P.R. China Abstract This work is concerned with the Dirichlet initial boundary problem for a semilinear viscoelastic wave system with nonlinear weak damping and source terms. For nonincreasing positive functions g and h, we show the finite time blow-up of some solutions whose initial data hav...
متن کاملGlobal Existence and Nonexistence for Nonlinear Wave Equations with Damping and Source Terms
We consider an initial-boundary value problem for a nonlinear wave equation in one space dimension. The nonlinearity features the damping term |u|m−1 ut and a source term of the form |u|p−1 u, with m, p > 1. We show that whenever m ≥ p, then local weak solutions are global. On the other hand, we prove that whenever p > m and the initial energy is negative, then local weak solutions cannot be gl...
