Existence of strong solutions and global attractors for the coupled suspension bridge equations

Abstract In this paper, we show the existence of the strong solutions for the coupled suspension bridge equations. Furthermore, existence of the strong global attractors is investigated using a new semigroup scheme. Since the solutions of the coupled equation have no higher regularity and the semigroup associated with the solutions is not continuous in the strong Hilbert space, the results are new and appear to be optimal.
