Global attractor for coupled beam equations with nonhomogeneous boundaries conditions (Q1720974)

Summary: We study the longtime behavior for thermoelastic coupled beam equations with strong damping and past history thermal memory \(u_{t t} + u_{x x x x} + u_{x x x x t} + \theta_{x x} - M \left(\int_0^l \left(u_x\right)^2 d x\right) u_{x x} = h \left(x\right)\), in \(\left[0, l\right] \times R^+\), and \(\theta_t - \iota \theta_{x x} - \left(1 - \iota\right) \int_0^{\infty} k \left(s\right) \theta_{x x} \left(t - s\right) d s - u_{x x t} + p \left(\theta\right) = q \left(x\right)\), with \(1 / 2 \leq \iota < 1\), where we consider the nonlinear boundary conditions \(u \left(0, t\right) = u_x \left(0, t\right) = u_{x x} \left(l, t\right) = 0, u_{x x x} \left(l, t\right) + u_{x x x t}(l, t) - M \left(\int_0^l u_x^2 d x\right) u_x(l, t) = f \left(u \left(l, t\right)\right) + g \left(u_t \left(l, t\right)\right), \theta \left(0, t\right) = \theta_x \left(l, t\right) = 0\) and certain initial conditions. To this problem little is known with nonlinear boundary conditions. This system arises from a model of the nonlinear thermoelastic coupled vibration beam with a nonlinear damping acting on \(x = l\).
