Abstract

In this paper, we investigate the initial boundary value problem of the following nonlinear extensible beam equation with nonlinear damping term

$$\begin{aligned} u_{t t}+\Delta ^2 u-M\left( \Vert \nabla u\Vert ^2\right) \Delta u-\Delta u_t+\left| u_t\right| ^{r-1} u_t=|u|^{p-1} u \end{aligned}$$

which was considered by Yang et al. (Adv Nonlinear Stud 22:436–468, 2022). We consider the problem with the nonlinear damping and establish the finite time blow-up of the solution for the initial data at arbitrary high energy level, including the estimate lower and upper bounds of the blow-up time. The result provides some affirmative answer to the open problems given in Yang et al. (2022).
