DECAY RATES FOR SOLUTIONS OF A TIMOSHENKO SYSTEM WITH A MEMORY CONDITION AT THE BOUNDARY MAURO DE LIMA SANTOS Received 2 March 2002 We consider a Timoshenko system with memory condition at the boundary and we study the asymptotic behavior of the corresponding solutions. We prove that the energy decay with the same rate of decay of the relaxation functions, that is, the energy decays exponentially when the relaxation functions decays exponen- tially and polynomially when the relaxation functions decays polynomially. 1. Introduction The main purpose of this work is to study the asymptotic behavior of the so- lutions of a Timoshenko system with boundary conditions of memory type. To formalize this problem, take Ω an open bounded set of Rn with smooth bound- ary Γ and assume that Γ can be divided into two parts ¯ ¯ Γ = Γ0 ∪ Γ1 with Γ0 ∩ Γ1 = ∅. (1.1) Denote by ν(x ) the unit normal vector at x ∈ Γ outside of Ω and consider the following initial boundary value problem: n ∂v utt − ∆u − α + βu = 0 in Ω × (0, ∞), (1.2) ∂xi i=1 n ∂u vtt − ∆v + α + f (v) = 0 in Ω × (0, ∞), (1.3) ∂xi i=1 u = v = 0 on Γ0 × (0, ∞), (1.4) Copyright © 2002 Hindawi Publishing Corporation Abstract and Applied Analysis 7:10 (2002) 531–546 2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: 35L70, 35B40 URL: /10.1155/S1085337502204133 532 Decay rates for solutions of a Timoshenko system
