Spatial stability in linear thermoelasticity
نویسندگان
چکیده
Uniqueness and spatial stability are investigated for smooth solutions to boundary value problems in non-classical linearised and linear thermoelasticity subject to certain conditions on material coefficients. Uniqueness is derived for standard boundary conditions on bounded regions using a generalisation of Kirchhoff’s method. Spatial stability is discussed for the semi-infinite prismatic cylinder in the absence of specified axial asymptotic behaviour. Alternative growth and decay estimates are established principally for the cross-sectional energy flux that is shown to satisfy a first order differential inequality. Uniqueness in the class of solutions with bounded energy follows as a corollary. Separate discussion is required for the linearised and linear theories. Although the general approach is similar for both theories, the argument must be considerably modified for the treatment of the linear theory.

Uniqueness and Hölder Type Stability of Continuation for the Linear Thermoelasticity System with Residual Stress
By introducing some auxiliary functions, an elasticity system with thermal effects becomes a coupled hyperbolic-parabolic system. Using this reduced system, we obtain a Carleman estimate with two large parameters for the linear thermoelasticity system with residual stress which is the basic tool for showing stability estimates in the lateral Cauchy problem.
متن کاملQualitative Aspects in Dual-Phase-Lag Thermoelasticity
We consider the system of dual-phase-lag thermoelasticity proposed by Chandrasekharaiah and Tzou. First, we prove that the solutions of the problem are generated by a semigroup of quasi-contractions. Thus, the problem of third-order in time is well-posed. Then the expontial stability is investigated. Finally the spatial behavior of solutions is analyzed in a semi-infinite cylinder and a resuult...
متن کاملAsymptotic Stability and Global Existence in Thermoelasticity with Symmetry
First we prove an exponential decay result for solutions of the equations of linear, homogeneous, isotropic thermoelasticity in bounded regions in two or three space dimensions if the rotation of the displacement vanishes. As a consequence, we describe the decay in radially symmetrical situations, and in a cylinder in R3. Then we establish the global existence of solutions to the corresponding ...
متن کاملPartial Exact Controllability and Exponential Stability in Higher-dimensional Linear Thermoelasticity
The problem of partial exact boundary controllability and exponential stability for the higher-dimensional linear system of thermoelasticity is considered. By introducing a velocity feedback on part of the boundary of the thermoelastic body, which is clamped along the rest of its boundary, to increase the loss of energy, we prove that the energy in the system of thermoelasticity decays to zero ...
متن کاملStrong Stabilization of the System of Linear Elasticity by a Dirichlet Boundary Feedback
In this paper, by using Nagy-Foias-Foguel’s theory of decomposition of continuous semigroups of contractions, we prove that the system of linear elasticity is strongly stabilizable by a Dirichlet boundary feedback. We also give a concise proof of a theorem of Dafermos about the stability of thermoelasticity.
