# The initial-boundary value problem for the compressible viscoelastic flows

• The initial-boundary value problem for the equations of compressible viscoelastic flows is considered in a bounded domain of three-dimensional spatial dimensions. The global existence of strong solution near equilibrium is established. Uniform estimates in $W^{1,q}$ with $q>3$ on the density and deformation gradient are also obtained.
