Long time behaviour of solutions of abstract inequalities. Applications to thermohydraulic and magnetohydrodynamic equations (Q800575): Difference between revisions

We study some scalar inequalities of parabolic type and we give the leading term of an asymptotic expansion as \(t\to\infty \) for solutions of thermo-hydraulic equations without external excitation. (A phenomenon of resonance is pointed out). We also treat M. H. D. equations, Navier-Stokes equations on a Riemann manifold and scalar inequalities of the type (n(t,x)\(\in {\mathbb{C}}\), \(\Omega\) bounded set in \({\mathbb{R}}^ n):\) \[ |\partial u/\partial t-(\partial /\partial x_ i)(a_{ij}(x,t))\partial u/\partial x_ j|_{L^ 2(\Omega)}\leq n(t)|\nabla u|_{L^ 2(\Omega)^ n} \] where \(a_{ij}(.,t)\) goes to \(a^{\infty}_{ij}(.)\) and n(t) goes to zero in a certain sense when t goes to infinity. We start with some abstract results on differential inequalities of type: \[ (*)\quad\| (d\Phi /dt)+\nu A\Phi\|_ H\leq n\|\Phi \|_{D(A^{{1\over2}})}\quad (\nu >0), \] where \(\{\) A(t)\(\}\) is a family of self-adjoint unbounded operators on a Hilbert space H. Then these results are applied to the equations and inequalities mentioned previously. The main result for (*) is that the behaviour of \(\Phi\) (t) is characterized by an eigenvalue \(\Lambda^{\infty}\) of the operator \(A^{\infty}=\lim_{t\to +\infty}A(t).\)
