The strong stability and instability of a fluid-structure semigroup

Publication:2641882





The author's abstract offers a brief but excellent and informative summary, pointing difficulties such as inability to apply classical stability solutions, or the recent stability of the operator semigroup techniques introduced by Y. Tomilov. Instead the author looks at the fluid-structure semigroup proposed by I. Lasiecka and her colleagues, which is strongly stable. The author points out that Stokes operator, located in the Leray topological space (closure of \(H^1\) of divergence free test functions with compact support), is coupled with the classical elasticity operator by an operator with unbounded trace. Thus unexpected difficulties are encountered. In the uncoupled Stokes flow the energy decays exponentially. One would expect that the coupling would cause similar decay in the elastic system. The author proves that this is not true. The semigroup \(\{e^{At}\}\) corresponding to the coupled system is not strongly stable. Thus, using the spectral properties of the system's operators, author proves absence of asymptotic decay.
