In this paper, we consider a coupled system of Petrovsky equations in a bounded domain with clamped boundary conditions. Due to several physical considerations, a linear damping which is distributed everywhere in the domain under consideration appears only in the first equation whereas no damping term is applied to the second one (this is indirect damping). Many studies show that the solution of this kind of system has a polynomial rate of decay as time tends to infinity, but does not have exponential decay. For four different ranges of initial energy, we show here the blow-up of solutions and give the lifespan estimates by improving the method of Wu (Electron. J. Diff. Equ. 105, 1 (2009)) and Li et al. (Nonlin. Anal. 74, 1523 (2011)). From the applications point of view, our results may provide some qualitative analysis and intuition for the researchers in other fields such as engineering and mechanics when they study the concrete models of Petrovsky type.

Abstract We consider a coupled system of nonlinear viscoelastic equations with linear damping and source terms. Under suitable conditions of the initial data and the relaxation functions, we prove a finitetime blow-up result with vanishing initial energy by using the modified energy method and a crucial lemma on differential inequality

We consider an initial-boundary value problem to a nonlinear string equations with linear damping term. It is proved that under suitable conditions the solution is global in time and the solution with a negative initial energy blows up in finite time.

We consider the blow up of solution to the initial boundary value problem for the generalized Boussinesq equation with damping term. Under some assumptions we prove that the solution with negative initial energy blows up in finite time

We consider an abstract coupled evolution system of second order in time. For any positive value of the initial energy, in particular for high energies, we give sufficient conditions on the initial data to conclude nonexistence of global solutions. We compare our results with those in the literature and show how we improve them.

This paper deals with a Cauchy problem for the coupled system of nonlinear viscoelastic equations with damping and source terms. We prove a new finite time blow-up result for compactly supported initial data with non-positive initial energy as well as positive initial energy by using the modified energy method and the compact support technique.

<p style='text-indent:20px;'>In this paper we consider a system of viscoelastic wave equations of Kirchhoff type with dynamic boundary conditions.

Moreover, we obtain the finite time blow-up result of solution with nonpositive or arbitrary positive initial energy. The results in this paper are obtained without imposing any growth condition on weak damping term at the origin. Our results improve and generalize several earlier related results in the literature.</p>

AbstractIn this work, we investigate blowup phenomena for nonlinearly damped viscoelastic equations with logarithmic source effect and time delay in the velocity. Owing to the nonlinear damping term instead of strong or linear dissipation, we cannot apply the concavity method introduced by Levine. Thus, utilizing the energy method, we show that the solutions with not only non-positive initial energy but also some positive initial energy blow up at a finite point in time.
