Stochastic Wave Equations with Nonlinear Damping and Source Terms (1104.3279v2)

Abstract: In this paper, we discuss an initial boundary value problem for the stochastic wave equation involving the nonlinear damping term $|u_t|^{q-2}u_t$ and a source term of the type $|u|^{p-2}u$. We firstly establish the local existence and uniqueness of solution by the Galerkin approximation method and show that the solution is global for $q\geq p$. Secondly, by an appropriate energy inequality, the local solution of the stochastic equations will blow up with positive probability or explosive in energy sense for $p>q$.
