Zy. Liu et Sm. Zheng, ON THE EXPONENTIAL STABILITY OF LINEAR VISCOELASTICITY AND THERMOVISCOELASTICITY, Quarterly of applied mathematics, 54(1), 1996, pp. 21-31
The exponential stability of the semigroup associated with one-dimensi
onal linear viscoelastic and thermoviscoelastic equations with several
types of boundary conditions is proved for a class of kernel function
s, including the weakly singular kernels.
