Abstract
In this paper, a system of partial differential equations modelling the dynamics of martensitic phase transitions in shape memory alloys is further investigated. In this system, the free energy is assumed to be in the Landau-Ginzburg form and nonconvex in the order parameter; the materials are assumed to be viscous. In a previous paper published in SIAM J. Math. Anal. the global existence of a unique solution and the compactness of the orbit have been established; in the present paper the existence of a compact maximal attractor is proved.
