Strong solutions of semilinear matched microstruture models (Q692817)

A micro-structure model for Newtonian fluid flows in fractured porous media, which takes the form of two coupled parabolic differential equations with boundary conditions in a given (two-scale) domain in Euclidean space is analysed. The main objective is to establish the local well-posedness in the strong sense of the flow. Two main settings are investigated: semilinear systems with linear boundary conditions and semilinear systems with nonlinear boundary conditions. With the help of analytic semigroups, local well-posedness is established the long-time behavior of the solutions in the first case is investigated; additionally, global existence is established and it is shown that solutions converge to zero at an exponential rate.
