Stabilization of a coupled wave equations with one localized non-regular
fractional Kelvin-Voigt damping with non-smooth coefficients
Abstract
In this paper, we study the stabilization of a coupled wave system
formed by one localized non-regular fractional viscoelastic damping of
Kelvin-Voigt type and localized non-smooth coefficients. Our main aim is
to prove that the C0-semigroup associated with this model is strong
stability and decays polynomially at a rate of t−1. By introducing a new
system to deal with fractional Kelvin-Voigt damping, we obtain a new
equivalent augmented system, so as to show the well-posedness of the
system based on Lumer-Phillips theorem. We achieve the strong stability
for the C0-semigroup associated with this new model by using a general
criteria of Arendt-Batty, and then turn out a polynomial energy decay
rate of order t−1 with the help of a frequency domain approach.
