In this paper we consider the following strongly damped wave equation with variable-exponent nonlinearity $$u_{tt}(x,t) - \Delta u (x,t) - \Delta u_t (x,t) = |u(x,t)|^{p(x)-2} u(x,t) , $$ where the exponent $p(\cdot)$ of nonlinearity is a given measurable function. We establish finite time blow-up results for the solutions with non-positive initial energy and for certain solutions with positive initial energy. We extend the previous results for strongly damped wave equations with constant exponent nonlinearity to the equations with variable-exponent nonlinearity.
Keywords: Wave equation, variable-exponent nonlinearity, finite time blow-up, strong damping
