Le. Payne et Jc. Song, PHRAGMEN-LINDELOF AND CONTINUOUS DEPENDENCE TYPE RESULTS IN GENERALIZED HEAT-CONDUCTION, Zeitschrift fur angewandte Mathematik und Physik, 47(4), 1996, pp. 527-538
Using an energy method we investigate the decay of end effects for a g
eneralized heat conduction problem defined on a semi-infinite cylindri
cal region. With homogeneous Dirichlet conditions on the lateral surfa
ce of the cylinder it is shown that solutions either grow exponentiall
y or decay exponentially in the distance from the finite end of the cy
linder. The effect of perturbing the equation parameters is also inves
tigated.
