Cahn-Hilliard equations with memory and dynamic boundary conditions / C. Cavaterra, C.G. Gal, M. Grasselli. - In: ASYMPTOTIC ANALYSIS. - ISSN 0921-7134. - 71:3(2011), pp. 123-162.
Abstract:
We consider a modified Cahn–Hiliard equation where the velocity of the order parameter u depends on the past history of Δμ, μ being the chemical potential with an additional viscous term αut, α≥0. This type of equation has been proposed by P. Galenko et al. to model phase separation phenomena in special materials (e.g., glasses). In addition, the usual no-flux boundary condition for u is replaced by a nonlinear dynamic boundary condition which accounts for possible interactions with the boundary. The resulting boundary value problem is subject to suitable initial conditions and is reformulated in the so-called past history space. Existence of a variational solution is obtained. Then, in the case α>0, we can also prove uniqueness and construct a strongly continuous semigroup acting on a suitable phase space. We show that the corresponding dynamical system has a (smooth) global attractor as well as an exponential attractor. In the case α=0, we only establish the existence of a trajectory attractor.
