Abstract

In this paper, we study global weak solutions for elastic equations with damping using the compensated compactness method. When the two end states at ± ∞ are not equal, the selfsimilar solutions for the corresponding parabolic equation are used to get the entropic estimates for both the L and L2 cases.
