Uniform decay rates for nonlinear viscoelastic Marguerre-von Karman equations

In this paper, we consider a model of nonlinear viscoelastic shallow shell that is referred to as the full Marguerre-von Karman under the presence of long-time memory. We show that the energy functional associated with the system decays exponentially to zero as time goes to infinity. (c) 2008 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
