Abstract
This paper is devoted to prove the existence of an exponential attractor for the semiflow generated by a nonlinear Boussinesq equation. We formulate the Boussinesq equation as an abstract equation in the Hilbert space \( H^{2}_{0} {\left( {0,1} \right)} \times L^{2} {\left( {0,1} \right)} \). The main step in this research is to show that there exists an absorbing set for the solution semiflow in the Hilbert space \( H^{3}_{0} {\left( {0,1} \right)} \times H^{1}_{0} {\left( {0,1} \right)} \).
