In this paper we investigate the asymptotic behavior of solutions to the initial boundary value problem for a mixture of two rigid solids modeling temperature and porosity. Our main result is to establish conditions which ensure the analyticity and the exponential stability of the corresponding semigroup.

In this paper we consider the classical linear theory of thermoviscoelasticity for inhomogeneous and anisotropic materials in three dimensional space. We show that under suitable conditions, the semigroup associated with the system of the viscoelastic equation of motion coupled with the parabolic equation of energy is analytic.
