Abstract

In this paper we summarize some recent results on the asymptotic behavior of a linearized model arising in fluid-structure interaction, where a wave and a heat equation evolve in two bounded domains, with natural transmission conditions at the interface. These conditions couple, in particular, the heat unknown with the velocity of the wave solution. First, we show the strong asymptotic stability of solutions. Next, based on the construction of ray-like solutions by means of Geometric Optics expansions and a careful analysis of the transfer of the energy at the interface, we show the lack of uniform decay of solutions in general domains. Finally, we obtain a polynomial decay result for smooth solutions under a suitable geometric assumption guaranteeing that the heat domain envelopes the wave one. The system under consideration may be viewed as an approximate model for the motion of an elastic body immersed in a fluid, which, in its most rigorous modeling should be a nonlinear free boundary problem, with the free boundary being the moving interface between the fluid and the elastic body.
