I will discuss well-posedness and long-time behavior of Mindlin-Timoshenko plate equa- tions that describe vibrations of thin plates. This system of partial differential equations was derived by R. Mindlin in 1951 (though E. Reissner also considered an analogous model ear- lier …

This dissertation deals with the global well-posedness of the system of nonlinear wave equations [special characters omitted]in a bounded domain Ω ⊂ [special characters omitted], n = 1, 2, 3; with Dirichlét boundary conditions. The nonlinearities f1(u, v) and f2(u, v) act as a s…
