Abstract

This paper is concerned with investigating the spatial decay estimates for a class of nonlinear damped hyperbolic equations. In addition, we compare the solutions of two-dimensional wave equations with different damped coefficients and establish an explicit inequality which displays continuous dependence on this coefficient.
