✦ Synopsis
In this paper, following the ideas of Lax, we prove a blow-up result for a class of solutions of the equation & -&x -&+xx -= 0, corresponding, in certain cases, to the development of a singularity in the second derivatives of 4. These solutions solve locally (in time) the Cauchy problem for smooth initial data belonging to the uniformly local Sobolev spaces considered by Kato and by Majda.

We study on the initial-boundary value problem for some degenerate non-linear wave equations of Kirchhoff type with a strong dissipation: When the initial energy associated with the equations is non-negative and small, a unique (weak) solution exists globally in time and has some decay properties.
