Long-time behaviour of solutions to a one-dimensional strongly nonlinear model for phase transitions with micro-movements

This paper studies the long-time behaviour of solutions to a one-dimensional strongly nonlinear partial differential equation system arising from phase transitions with microscopic movements. Our system features a strongly nonlinear internal energy balance equation. Uniform bounds of the global solutions and the compactness of the orbit are obtained for the first time using a lemma established recently by Jiang. The existence of global attractors and convergence of global solutions to a single steady state as time goes to infinity are also proved.
