Global solutions and blow‐up problems to a porous medium system with nonlocal sources and nonlocal boundary conditions

This paper deals with a porous medium system with nonlocal sources and weighted nonlocal boundary conditions. The main aim of this paper is to study how the reaction terms, the diffusion terms, and the weight functions in the boundary conditions affect the global and blow‐up properties to a porous medium system. The conditions on the global existence and blow‐up in finite time for nonnegative solutions are given. Furthermore, the blow‐up rate estimates of the blow‐up solutions are also established.

Local and blowing‐up solutions for a space‐time fractional evolution system with nonlinearities of exponential growth

Local and blowing‐up solutions for the Cauchy problem for a system of space and time fractional evolution equations with time‐nonlocal nonlinearities of exponential growth are considered. The existence and uniqueness of the local mild solution is assured by the Banach fixed point principle. Then, we establish a blow‐up result by Pokhozhaev capacity method. Finally, under some suitable conditions, an estimate of the life span of blowing‐up solutions is established.     

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.

Qualitative properties of solutions to a nonlocal evolution system

In this paper, we investigate the local existence and the finite‐time blow‐up of solutions for a semi‐linear parabolic system with a nonlinear memory. Moreover, we give the blow‐up rate of solutions and the necessary conditions for local or global existence. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

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.

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)     

Local well‐posedness and blow‐up criterion for a compressible Navier‐Stokes‐Fourier‐P1 approximate model arising in radiation hydrodynamics

We establish a local well‐posedness and a blow‐up criterion of strong solutions for the compressible Navier‐Stokes‐Fourier‐P1 approximate model arising in radiation hydrodynamics. For the local well‐posedness result, we do not need the assumption on the positivity of the initial density and it may vanish in an open subset of the domain.     

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 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.

Numerical blow‐up for the porous medium equation with a source

We study numerical approximations of positive solutions of the porous medium equation with a nonlinear source, where m > 1, p > 0 and L > 0 are parameters. We describe in terms of p, m, and L when solutions of a semidiscretization in space exist globally in time and when they blow up in a finite time. We also find the blow‐up rates and the blow‐up sets, proving that there is no regional blow‐up for the numerical scheme. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Possibility of the existence of blow‐up solutions to quasilinear degenerate Keller–Segel systems of parabolic–parabolic type

This paper deals with the quasilinear ‘degenerate’ Keller–Segel system of parabolic–parabolic type under the super‐critical condition. In the ‘non‐degenerate’ case, Winkler (Math. Methods Appl. Sci. 2010; 33:12–24) constructed the initial data such that the solution blows up in either finite or infinite time. However, the blow‐up under the super‐critical condition is left as an open question in the ‘degenerate’ case. In this paper, we try to give an answer to the question under assuming the existence of local solutions. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Strong solutions to the incompressible magnetohydrodynamic equations

In this paper, we are concerned with strong solutions to the Cauchy problem for the incompressible Magnetohydrodynamic equations. By the Galerkin method, energy method and the domain expansion technique, we prove the local existence of unique strong solutions for general initial data, develop a blow‐up criterion for local strong solutions and prove the global existence of strong solutions under the smallness assumption of initial data. The initial data are assumed to satisfy a natural compatibility condition and allow vacuum to exist. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Local strong solutions to a compressible non‐Newtonian fluid with density‐dependent viscosity

We consider the initial boundary problem for a compressible non‐Newtonian fluid with density‐dependent viscosity. The local existence of strong solution is established that is based on some compatibility condition. Moreover, it is also proved that the solutions are to blow up, and the maximum norm of velocity gradients controls the possible break down of the strong solutions.

Global well‐posedness of the nonhomogeneous incompressible liquid crystals systems

This paper examines the initial‐value problem for the nonhomogeneous incompressible nematic liquid crystals system with vacuum. This paper establishes two main results. The first result is involved with the global strong solutions to the 2D liquid crystals system in a bounded smooth domain. Our second result is concerned with the small data global existence result about the 3D system in the whole space. In addition, the local existence and a blow‐up criterion of strong solutions are also mentioned. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

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.

Remarks on the qualitative behavior of the undamped Klein‐Gordon equation

We consider the undamped Klein‐Gordon equation in bounded domains with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions. For any real value of the initial energy, particularly for supercritical values of the energy, we give sufficient conditions to conclude blow‐up in finite time of weak solutions. The success of the analysis is based on a detailed analysis of a differential inequality. Our results improve previous ones in the literature.
