Global existence of solutions for quasi-linear wave equations with viscous damping. (English) Zbl 1060.35087
Authors’ abstract: The global existence of solutions to the initial boundary value problem for a class of quasilinear wave equations with viscous damping and source terms is studied by using a combination of Galerkin approximations, compactness, and monotonicity methods.
