Abstract
Under suitable growth and coercivity conditions on the nonlinear damping operator which ensure nonresonance, we estimate the ultimate bound of the energy of the general solution to the equation , , where is a positive selfadjoint operator on a Hilbert space and is a bounded forcing term with values in . In general the bound is of the form , where stands for the norm of with values in and the growth of does not seem to play any role. If behaves like a power for large values of the velocity, the ultimate bound has quadratic growth with respect to and this result is optimal. If is antiperiodic, we obtain a much lower growth bound and again the result is shown to be optimal even for scalar ODEs.
