Blow‐up criterion for two‐dimensional magneto‐micropolar fluid equations with partial viscosity

In this paper, we derive a blow‐up criterion of smooth solutions to the incompressible magneto‐micropolar fluid equations with partial viscosity in two space dimensions. Our proof is based on careful Hölder estimates of heat and transport equations and the standard Littlewood–Paley theory. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Blow‐up profiles of solutions for the exponential reaction‐diffusion equation

We consider the blow‐up of solutions for a semilinear reaction‐diffusion equation with exponential reaction term. It is known that certain solutions that can be continued beyond the blow‐up time possess a non‐constant self‐similar blow‐up profile. Our aim is to find the final time blow‐up profile for such solutions. The proof is based on general ideas using semigroup estimates. The same approach works also for the power nonlinearity.

Blow‐up of solutions for a viscoelastic wave equation with variable exponents

In this paper, we consider a viscoelastic wave equation with variable exponents: where the exponents of nonlinearity p(·) and m(·) are given functions and a,b > 0 are constants. For nonincreasing positive function g, we prove the blow‐up result for the solutions with positive initial energy as well as nonpositive initial energy. We extend the previous blow‐up results to a viscoelastic wave equation with variable exponents.     

Blow‐up phenomena for a pseudo‐parabolic equation

By the means of a differential inequality technique, we obtain a lower bound for blow‐up time if p and the initial value satisfy some conditions. Also, we establish a blow‐up criterion and an upper bound for blow‐up time under some conditions as well as a nonblow‐up and exponential decay under some other conditions.

Blow‐up solutions for localized reaction‐diffusion equations with variable exponents

This paper deals with radial solutions to localized reaction‐diffusion equations with variable exponents, subject to homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions. The global existence versus blow‐up criteria are studied in terms of the variable exponents. We proposed that the maximums of variable exponents are the key clue to determine blow‐up classifications and describe blow‐up rates for positive solutions.

Blow‐up for wave equation with the scale‐invariant damping and combined nonlinearities

In this article, we study the blow‐up of the damped wave equation in the scale‐invariant case and in the presence of two nonlinearities. More precisely, we consider the following equation: $$u_{tt}?\mathrm{\Delta }u+\frac{\mu }{1+t}{u}_t=|u_t{|}^p+|u{|}^q,\text{in}{?}^N\times [0,\infty ),$$ with small initial data. For $\mu <\frac{N(q?1)}{2}$ and μ ∈ (0, μ_?) , where μ_? > 0 is depending on the nonlinearties' powers and the space dimension (μ_? satisfies $(q?1)\left((N+2{\mu }_{?}?1)p?2\right)=4$), we prove that the wave equation, in this case, behaves like the one without dissipation (μ = 0 ). Our result completes the previous studies in the case where the dissipation is given by $\frac{\mu }{{(1+t)}^{\beta }}{u}_t;\beta >1$, where, contrary to what we obtain in the present work, the effect of the damping is not significant in the dynamics. Interestingly, in our case, the influence of the damping term $\frac{\mu }{1+t}{u}_t$ is important.

Furthermore, the blow‐up of the solution for the Cauchy problem of the generalized Boussinesq equation is proved. Copyright © 2007 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Blow‐up analysis for a system of heat equations coupled via nonlinear boundary conditions

In this paper, we study a system of heat equations coupled via nonlinear boundary conditions (1) Here p, q>0. We prove that the solutions always blow up in finite time for non‐trivial and non‐negative initial values. We also prove that the blow‐up occurs only on S_R = ?B_R for Ω = B_R = {x ? ?ⁿ:|x|<R}and under some assumptions on the initial values. Copyright © 2007 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Blow‐up of the smooth solutions to the compressible Navier–Stokes equations

In this paper, we will firstly extend the results about Jiu, Wang, and Xin (JDE, 2015, 259, 2981–3003). We prove that any smooth solution of compressible fluid will blow up without any restriction about the specific heat ratio γ. Then we prove the blow‐up of smooth solution of compressible Navier–Stokes equations in half space with Navier‐slip boundary. The main ideal is constructing the differential inequality.

Blow‐up rate estimates for a parabolic system with multiple nonlinearities

In this paper, we study the blow‐up behaviors for the solutions of parabolic systems u_t=Δu+δ₁e, v_t=Δv+µ₁u in ?×(0, T) with nonlinear boundary conditions Here δ_i?0, µ_j?0, p_i?0, q_j?0 and at least one of δ_iµ_jp_iq_j>0(i, j=1, 2). We prove that the solutions will blow up in finite time for suitable ‘large’ initial values. The exact blow‐up rates are also obtained. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Blow‐up of smooth solutions to the Navier–Stokes–Poisson equations

The main purpose of this paper is concerned with blow‐up smooth solutions to Navier–Stokes–Poisson (N‐S‐P) equations. First, we present a sufficient condition on the blow up of smooth solutions to the N‐S‐P system. Then we construct a family of analytical solutions that blow up in finite time.

Blow‐up solutions to Landau–Lifshitz–Maxwell systems

The Landau–Lifshitz–Gilbert equation describes the evolution of spin fields in continuum ferromagnetics. The present paper consists of two parts. The first one is to prove the local existence of smooth solution to the Landau–Lifshitz–Maxwell systems in dimensions three. The second is to prove the finite time blow up of solutions for these systems. It states that for suitably chosen initial data, the short time smooth solutions to the Landau–Lifshitz–Maxwell equations do blow up at finite time. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Minimal blow‐up masses and existence of solutions for an asymmetric sinh‐Poisson equation

For a sinh‐Poisson type problem with asymmetric exponents of interest in hydrodynamic turbulence, we establish the optimal lower bounds for the blow‐up masses. We apply this result to construct solutions of mountain pass type on two‐dimensional tori.     

Local well‐posedness and blow‐up criteria of solutions for a rod equation

In this paper we consider a new rod equation derived recently by Dai [Acta Mech. 127 No. 1–4, 193–207 (1998)] for a compressible hyperelastic material. We establish local well‐posedness for regular initial data and explore various sufficient conditions of the initial data which guarantee the blow‐up in finite time both for periodic and non‐periodic case. Moreover, the blow‐up time and blow‐up rate are given explicitly. Some interesting examples are given also. (© 2005 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)     

Time‐weighted blow‐up rates and pointwise profile for single‐point blow‐up solutions in reaction–diffusion equations

This paper deals with asymptotic behavior for blow‐up solutions to time‐weighted reaction–diffusion equations u_t=Δu+e^αtv^p and v_t=Δv+e^βtu^q, subject to homogeneous Dirichlet boundary. The time‐weighted blow‐up rates are defined and obtained by ways of the scaling or auxiliary‐function methods for all α, . Aiding by key inequalities between components of solutions, we give lower pointwise blow‐up profiles for single‐point blow‐up solutions. We also study the solutions of the system with variable exponents instead of constant ones, where blow‐up rates and new blow‐up versus global existence criteria are obtained. Time‐weighted functions influence critical Fujita exponent, critical Fujita coefficient and formulae of blow‐up rates, but they do not limit the order of time‐weighted blow‐up rates and pointwise profile near blow‐up time.

Blow‐up for the b‐family of equations

In this paper, we consider the b‐family of equations on the torus u _t ?u _{t x x} +(b + 1)u u _x =b u _x u _{x x} +u u _{x x x} , which for appropriate values of b reduces to well‐known models, such as the Camassa–Holm equation or the Degasperis–Procesi equation. We establish a local‐in‐space blow‐up criterion. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Blow‐up phenomena in the model of a space charge stratification in semiconductors: analytical and numerical analysis

The initial‐boundary value problems for a Sobolev equation with exponential nonlinearities, classical, and nonclassical boundary conditions are considered. For this model, which describes processes in crystalline semiconductors, the blow‐up phenomena are studied. The sufficient blow‐up conditions and the blow‐up time are analyzed by the method of the test functions. This analytical a priori information is used in the numerical experiments, which are able to determine the process of the solution's blow‐up more accurately. The model derivation and some questions of local solvability and uniqueness are also discussed. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Blow‐up criterion for 3D viscous‐resistive compressible magnetohydrodynamic equations

In this paper, we establish a blow‐up criterion of strong solutions for 3D viscous‐resistive compressible magnetohydrodynamic equations, which depends only on and . Our result improves the previous criterion in Lu's paper (Journal of Mathematical Analysis and Applications 2011; 379: 425–438.) for compressible magnetohydrodynamic equations by removing a stringent condition on the viscous coefficients μ > 4λ. In addition, initial vacuum states are also allowed in our cases. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
