Compressible magnetohydrodynamics as a dissipative system

抄録

We consider the complete system of equations governing the motion of a general compressible, viscous, electrically and heat conductive fluid driven by non-conservative boundary conditions. We show the existence of a bounded absorbing set in the energy space and asymptotic compactness of trajectories. As a corollary, the set of all entire globally bounded solutions is identified as a natural attractor. Examples of boundary conditions giving rise to unbounded solutions are also discussed.
