Abstract We prove the existence and uniqueness of variational solutions to the following non-autonomous nonclassical diffusion equation ut − ut − u + f (u) = g(x, t) in a noncylindrical domain with the homogeneous Dirichlet boundary condition, under assumptions that the spatial domains are bounded and increase with time, the nonlinearity f satisfies growth and dissipativity conditions of Sobolev type, and the external force g is time-dependent. Moreover, the nonautonomous dynamical system generated by this class of solutions is shown to have a pullback attractor Aˆ = {A(t) : t ∈ R}.

1 Introduction Nonclassical diffusion equation arises as a model to describe physical phenomena, such as non-Newtonian flows, soil mechanics, and heat conduction (see, e.g., [1, 13, 18, 20]). In the last few years, the existence and long-time behavior of solutions to nonclassical diffusion equations have attracted the attention of many authors, for both autonomous case [16, 19, 21, 22] and nonautonomous case [2–5, 17]. However, most of the existing results are in the case of cylindrical domains, except the recent work [4] in which the nonclassical diffusion equations in noncylindrical domains with nonlinearity of polynomial type were investigated. In this paper, we will study the existence and long-time behavior of variational solutions to this equation in the case of non-cylindrical domains, the nonlinearity f is of Sobolev type, and the external force g that may depend on time t.

Let {t }t∈R be a family of nonempty bounded open subsets of RN such that s < t ⇒ s ⊂ t . We will frequently use the notations t × {t}, Qτ := Qτ,T := t∈(τ,T )

We are interested in the nonautonomous nonclassical diffusion equation ⎧ ⎨ ut − ut − u + f (u) = g(t, x) in Qτ , u=0 on τ , ⎩ u|t=τ = uτ on τ ,
