Asymptotic behavior of solutions for linear evolutionary boundary value problem of viscoelastic damped wave equation

Abstract

We study the existence of global in time and uniform decay of weak solutions to the initial-boundary value problem related to the dynamic behavior of evolution equation accounting for rotational inertial forces along with a linear nonlocal frictional damping arises in viscoelastic materials. By constructing appropriate Lyapunov functional, we show the solution converges to the equilibrium state polynomially in the energy space.
