Energy decay in thermoelastic bodies with radial symmetry

Abstract

In this paper, we consider the energy decay of some problems involving domains with radial symmetry. Three different settings are studied: a strong porous dissipation and heat conduction, a weak porous dissipation and heat conduction and poro-thermoelasticity with microtemperatures. In all the three problems, the exponential energy decay is shown. Moreover, for each of them some finite element simulations are presented to numerically demonstrate this behavior.
