This article explores blow-up phenomena in nonlinear logarithmic wave equations with fractional damping, infinite memory, and strong dissipation. The paper proves the existence of a local weak solution using semigroup theory. Furthermore, this research demonstrates that under certain conditions in finite time, the local solution may blow-up by using an appropriate Lyapunov functional. The findings highlight the effectiveness of strong damping, particularly when combined with fractional damping.

In this article, we consider the dynamics of a viscoelastic plate equation with internal fractional damping, a nonlinear logarithmic source, and infinite memory effects. The existence of a local weak solution is shown effectively through the framework of semigroup theory. Furthermore, we show that the blow-up in finite time of the local solution may occur under specific conditions and is demonstrated within the development of a suitable Lyapunov functional. Our result offers an insight into the challenges presented by this class of equations and their relevance to physical systems.
