Energy decay for degenerate Kirchhoff equations with weakly nonlinear dissipation
Electronic journal of differential equations, Tome 2013 (2013)
In this article we consider a degenerate Kirchhoff equation wave equation with a weak frictional damping,

$ (|u_t|^{l-2}u_t)_t-\Big( \int_{\Omega }|\nabla _x u|^{2}\,dx\Big)^{\gamma } \Delta _xu+\alpha (t)g(u_t)=0. $

We prove general stability estimates using some properties of convex functions, without imposing any growth condition at the frictional damping term.
