We address the long-time behavior of a non-rotational von Kar- man plate in an inviscid potential flow. The model arises in aeroelasticity and models the interaction between a thin, nonlinear panel and a flow of gas in which it is immersed [6, 21, 23]. Recent results in [16, 18] show that the plate component of the dynamics (in the presence of a physical plate nonlinearity) converge to a global compact attracting set of finite dimension; these results were obtained in the absence of mechanical damping of any type. Here we show that, by incorporating mechanical damping the full flow-plate system, full trajectories|both plate and flow—converge strongly to (the set of) sta- tionary states.

  • Long-Time Dynamics of Vectorial Von Karman System with Nonlinear Thermal Effects and Free Boundary Conditions
    DISCRETE AND CONTINUOUS doi:10.3934/dcdsb.2018141 DYNAMICAL SYSTEMS SERIES B Volume 23, Number 3, May 2018 pp. 1037{1072 LONG-TIME DYNAMICS OF VECTORIAL VON KARMAN SYSTEM WITH NONLINEAR THERMAL EFFECTS AND FREE BOUNDARY CONDITIONS Irena Lasiecka∗ Department of Mathematical Sciences, University of Memphis Memphis, TN 38152, USA and IBS-Polish Academy of Sciences, Warsaw, Poland To Fu Ma and Rodrigo Nunes Monteiro Institute of Mathematical and Computer Sciences, University of S~aoPaulo 13566-590 S~aoCarlos, SP, Brazil Abstract. This paper is concerned with long-time dynamics of a full von Karman system subject to nonlinear thermal coupling and free boundary con- ditions. In contrast with scalar von Karman system, vectorial full von Karman system accounts for both vertical and in plane displacements. The correspond- ing PDE is of critical interest in flow structure interactions where nonlinear plate/shell dynamics interacts with perturbed flows [vicid or invicid] [8,9, 15]. In this paper it is shown that the system admits a global attractor which is also smooth and of finite fractal dimension. The above result is shown to hold for plates without regularizing effects of rotational inertia and without any mechanical dissipation imposed on vertical displacements. This is in contrast with the literature on this topic [15] and references therein. In order to handle highly supercritical nature of the von Karman nonlinearities, new results on \hidden" trace regularity generated by thermal effects are exploited. These lead to asymptotic compensated compactness of trajectories which then allows to use newly developed tools pertaining to quasi stable dynamical systems [8].

  • 2012/1 Introduction
    Newsletter 20 Edited by Sara Munday (University of Bremen, Germany) and Elena Resmerita (University of Klagenfurt, Austria) 2012/1 Introduction The current issue is dedicated to the 6th European Congress of Mathematics, Kraków, July 2-7, 2012, the main meeting organized by the European Mathematical Society (EMS) quadrennially. For this reason, the issue highlights EWM activities within ECM 2012 Krakow and contains interviews with scientists that are connected to this event in various ways. The first interview is with Irena Lasiecka, a mathematician of Polish origin, the second with Beryl Nelson, who works for Google in Kraków, while the third and last is with Marta Sanz-Sole, the EMS president. Also in this issue, we initiate the section "Situation of women in Mathematics/STEM per country" which this time is focused on Poland. EWM 2012 in Krakow The 6th European Congress of Mathematics, 6ECM, will be held in Krakow, 2-7 July 2012 (http://www.6ecm.pl). Together with the Women in Mathematics Committee (http://www.euro-math-soc.eu/comm-women.html), EWM is organising both a short satellite meeting on the day immediately before the Congress and a panel discussion during the Congress itself. EWM is also helping to increase the participation of young women from eastern European countries in 6ECM by advertising and supporting financially the EMS's grant scheme (http://www.6ecm.pl/en/registration-fee/grants-and-financial-suport): this should provide for living expenses of around 20-30 eligible participants. Google has made a generous donation of 5000 Euro towards this and in addition is funding a reception on Sunday July 1st.
