We consider a damped wave equation in a bounded domain. The damping is nonlinear and is homogeneous with degree p -- 1 with p > 2. First, we show that the energy of the strong solution in the supercritical case decays as a negative power of…
Hyperbolic-parabolic systems have spatially homogenous stationary states. When the dissipation is weak, one can derive weakly nonlinear-dissipative approximations that govern perturbations of these constant states. These approximations are…
