Dynamics of weak solutions for two-dimensional micropolar equations with nonlinear damping

Xueli Song, Xinyu Liu

Abstract:
In this article, we consider 2D micropolar fluid equations with a nonlinear damping term \(\sigma|u|^{\beta-1}u\) with \(1 \leq \beta < 7/3\). We establish the existence and uniqueness of weak solutions. Based on the method of \(\ell \)-trajectory proposed by Malek and Prazak, we analyze the long-time behavior of the system in the trajectory space \(X_\ell\), deduce the existence of the global attractor of the semigroup in the initial phase space \(H\times L^2(\Omega)\), and establish that this global attractor has finite fractal dimension.
