Abstract

We propose and analyze the numerical approximation for a viscoelastic Euler-Bernoulli beam model containing a nonlinear strong damping coefficient. The finite difference method is used for spatial discretization, while the backward Euler method and the averaged PI rule are applied for temporal discretization. The long-time stability and the finite-time error estimate of the numerical solutions are derived for both the semi-discrete-in-space scheme and the fully-discrete scheme. Furthermore, the Leray-Schauder theorem is used to derive the existence and uniqueness of the fully-discrete numerical solutions. Finally, the numerical results verify the theoretical analysis.
