In this paper, we derived a model which describes the swelling dynamics of a gel and study the system in one-dimensional geometry with a free boundary. The governing equations are hyperbolic with a weakly dissipative source. Using a mass-Lagrangian formulation, the free boundary is transformed into a fixed boundary. We prove the existence of long-time C1-solutions to the transformed fixed boundary problem.

We review some recent mathematical results concerning integrodiff erential equations that model the motion of one-dimensional nonlinear viscoelastic materials. In particular, we discuss global (in time) existence and long-time behavior of classical solutions, as well as the formation of singularities in finite time from smooth initial data. Although the mathematical theory is comparatively incomplete, we make some remarks concerning the existence of weak solutions (i e, solutions with shocks). Some relevant results from linear wave propagation will also be discussed.

Abstract For any given C2-smooth initial open curves with fixed position and fixed tangent at the boundary points, we obtain the long-time existence of smooth solutions under the second-order evolution of plane curves. Moreover, the asymptotic limit of a convergent subsequence is an inextensible elastica.
