In this paper, we study the Cauchy problem for the nonlinear acoustic wave equation with the Cattaneo law involving fractional Laplacians $(-\Delta)^{\alpha}$ of the viscosity with $\alpha\in[0,1]$, which is established by applying the Lighthill approximation of the fractional Navier-Stokes-Cattaneo equations under irrotational flows. Exploring structures of the nonlinearities, we rigorously demonstrate optimal decay rates of the global (in time) small datum Sobolev solutions with suitable regularities. Furthermore, by introducing a threshold $\alpha=1/2$, we derive the anomalous diffusion profiles when $\alpha\in[0,1/2)$ and the diffusion wave profiles when $\alpha\in[1/2,1]$ as large time. These results show influences of the fractional index $\alpha$ on large time behaviors of the solutions.

We consider an initial boundary problem for the planar MHD system under the general condition on the heat conductivity $\kappa$ that may depend on both the density $\rho$ and the temperature $\theta$ satisfying $\kappa(\rho,\theta)\geq\kappa_1 \theta^{q}$ for some constants $\kappa_1>0$ and $q>0.$ Firstly, the global existence of strong solution for large initial data is obtained, and then the limit of the vanishing shear viscosity is justified. In addition, the $L^2$ convergence rate is obtained together with the estimation on the thickness of the boundary layer., Comment: 31 pages. arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:1511.00201

In this paper, we consider an initial-boundary problem for plane magnetohydrodynamics flows under the general condition on the heat conductivity $\kappa$ that may depend on both the density $\rho$ and the temperature $\theta$ and satisfies $$ \kappa(\rho,\theta)\geq\kappa_1(1+\theta^{q}) \quad \hbox{\rm with constants}~ \kappa_1>0 ~\hbox{\rm and}~ q>0. $$ We prove the global existence of strong solutions for large initial data and justify the passage to the limit as the shear viscosity $\mu$ goes to zero. Furthermore, the value $\mu^\alpha$ with any $0, Comment: 41 pages

By observing a new relation between the magnetic pressure and the hydrodynamic pressure, global existence of classical solution to the full perfect MHD equations with large data is established, in particular including the case when all the viscosity, heat conductivity and diffusivity coefficients are constant. This can be viewed as an analog of the classical work by Kazhikhov-Shelukhin for the Navier-Stokes equations to the MHD equations. In addition, the vanishing shear viscosity limit is proved., Comment: This paper has been withdrawn by the author due to a serious gap

A global existence result is established for a free boundary problem of planar magnetohydrodynamic fluid flows with radiation and large initial data. Particularly, it is novelty to embrace the constant transport coefficient. As a by-product, the free boundary is shown to expand outward at an algebraic rate from above in time.
