Abstract

We prove the existence and uniqueness of variational solutions to the following non-autonomous nonclassical diffusion equation utΔutΔu+f(u)=g(x,t) in a non-cylindrical domain with the homogeneous Dirichlet boundary condition, under assumptions that the spatial domains are bounded and increase with time, the nonlinearity f satisfies growth and dissipativity conditions of Sobolev type, and the external force g is time-dependent. Moreover, the non-autonomous dynamical system generated by this class of solutions is shown to have a pullback attractor A^={A(t):tR}.
