Firstly global existence of the solutions is proved. The asymptotic behavior is obtained by using multiplier technique proved by A. Guessmia [1], however in the unstable set for certain initial data bolstered with some conditions, we obtain the blow up of the solutions for various sign of initial energy negative, positive or null. We use the same technique in [2] with a necessary modification imposed by our problem. This improves the earlier results in the literature.}, issn = {2079-732X}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.4208/jpde.v27.n4.2}, url = {https://global-sci.com/article/88311/global-existence-and-asymptotic-behavior-for-a-coupled-system-of-viscoelastic-wave-equations-with-a-delay-term} }
