Abstract

In this paper, we consider the existence and asymptotic behavior of solutions of the following problem: $u_{tt}$ -(t, x) - (∥∇u(t, x)∥(equation omitted) + ∥∇v(t, x) (equation omitted)$^{\gamma}$ $\Delta$u(t, x)+$\delta$$u_{t}$ (t, x)│sup p-1/ $u_{t}$ (t, x) = $\mu$│u(t, x) $^{q-1}$u(t, x), x$\in$$\Omega$, t$\in$[0, T], $v_{tt}$ (t, x) - (∥∇uu(t, x) (equation omitted) + ∥∇v(t, x) (equation omitted)sup ${\gamma}$/ $\Delta$v(t, x)+$\delta$$v_{t}$ (t, x)│sup p-1/ $u_{t}$ (t, x) = $\mu$ u(t, x) $^{q-1}$u(t, x), x$\in$$\Omega$, t$\in$[0, T], u(0, x) = $u_{0}$ (x), $u_{t}$ (0, x) = $u_1$(x), x$\in$$\Omega$, u(0, x) = $v_{0}$ (x), $v_{t}$ (0, x) = $v_1$(x), x$\in$$\Omega$, u│∂$\Omega$=v│∂$\Omega$=0 T > 0, q > 1, p $\geq$1, $\delta$ > 0, $\mu$ $\in$ R, ${\gamma}$ $\geq$ 1 and $\Delta$ is the Laplacian in $R^{N}$.X> N/.
