Abstract

In this paper, we consider the 2-dimensional non-viscous Oldroyd-B model. In the case of the ratio equal 1~(α=0\alpha=0), it is a difficult case since the velocity field u(t,x)u(t,x) is no longer decay. Fortunately, by {observing the exponential decay} of the stress tensor τ(t,x)\tau(t,x), we succeeded in proving the global existence for this system with some large initial data. Moreover, we give an unsteady result: when the ratio is close to 1~(a0a\rightarrow 0), the system is not steady for large time. This implies an interesting physical phenomenon that the term aDua\mathbb{D}u is a bridge between the transformation of kinetic energy uu and elastic potential energy τ\tau, but this process is transient for large time, which leads the instability.
