Asymptotic behaviour of a thermoelastic plate of weakly hyperbolic type
Mauro Fabrizio, Barbara Lazzari, Jaime E. Muñoz Rivera · Differential and Integral Equations · 2000
An initial boundary value problem for a thermoelastic plate is considered. Results about existence, uniqueness and asymptotic stability of the solutions are obtained as a consequence of the dissipation properties of the material. By using suitable multiplicative techniques we show the exponential decay rate of the energy.
