The Global Existence and Energy Decay of a Partially Logarithmically Damped Wave System
Abstract
We investigate the global existence and energy decay properties of a weakly coupled evolution system consisting of two wave equations in a bounded domain. The system exhibits a unique structural asymmetry: a nonlinear logarithmic damping term acts exclusively as a friction-like feedback mechanism on the first wave equation, while the second equation remains completely undamped and relies solely on linear cross-coupling to transfer and dissipate its energy. We establish two primary objectives. First, by utilizing the Faedo-Galerkin approximation scheme in conjunction with the structural monotonicity properties of the non-Lipschitz logarithmic nonlinearity, we prove a rigorous global existence result for strong solutions. Second, we provide a rigorous mathematical proof demonstrating the stability and asymptotic energy decay of the solutions under suitable constraints on the cross-coupling parameter. These results provide new insights into the stabilization mechanisms of coupled hyperbolic systems under degenerate nonlinear damping.
