  In this paper we study a nonlinear transmission problem for a plate which consists of thermoelastic and isothermal parts. The problem generates a dynamical system in a suitable Hilbert space. Main result is the proof of the asymptotic smoothness of this dynamical system. Also we prove the existence of a compact global attractor in particular cases when the nonlinearity is of Berger type or scalar.
