An adaptive numerical method to handle blow-up in a parabolic system
نویسندگان
چکیده
We study numerical approximations to solutions of a system of two nonlinear diffusion equations in a bounded interval, coupled at the boundary in a nonlinear way. In certain cases the system develops a blow-up singularity in finite time. Fixed mesh methods are not well suited to approximate the problem near the singularity. As an alternative to reproduce the behaviour of the continuous solution, we present an adaptive in space procedure. The scheme recovers the conditions for blow-up and non-simultaneous blow-up. It also gives the correct non-simultaneous blow-up rate and set. Moreover, the numerical simultaneous blow-up rates coincide with the continuous ones in the cases when the latter are known. Finally, we present numerical experiments that illustrate the behaviour of the adaptive method.

A note on blow-up in parabolic equations with local and localized sources
This note deals with the systems of parabolic equations with local and localized sources involving $n$ components. We obtained the exponent regions, where $kin {1,2,cdots,n}$ components may blow up simultaneously while the other $(n-k)$ ones still remain bounded under suitable initial data. It is proved that different initial data can lead to different blow-up phenomena even in the same ...
متن کاملNumerical Blow-Up of Nonlinear Parabolic Integro-Differential Equations on Unbounded Domain
We study the numerical solution of semilinear parabolic integro-differential PDEs on unbounded spatial domains whose solutions blow up in finite time. We first introduce the unified approach to derive the nonlinear absorbing boundary conditions for one-dimensional and two-dimensional domains, then use the fixed point method to achieve a simple but efficient adaptive time-stepping scheme. The th...
متن کاملNumerical Solution of a Parabolic System with Blow-up of the Solution
Abstract. In this paper, the author proposes a numerical method to solve a parabolic system of two quasilinear equations of nonlinear heat conduction with sources. The solution of this system may blow up in finite time. It is proved that the numerical solution also may blow up in finite time and an estimate of this time is obtained. The convergence of the scheme is obtained for particular value...

In this paper, we consider singular and degenerate parabolic equations$$u_t =(x^alpha u_x)_x +u^m (x_0,t)v^{n} (x_0,t),quadv_t =(x^beta v_x)_x +u^q (x_0,t)v^{p} (x_0,t),$$ in $(0,a)times (0,T)$, subject to nullDirichlet boundary conditions, where $m,n, p,qge 0$, $alpha, betain [0,2)$ and $x_0in (0,a)$. The optimal classification of non-simultaneous and simultaneous blow-up solutions is determin...
متن کاملNumerical Blow-up of Semilinear Parabolic PDEs on Unbounded Domains in ℝ2
We study the numerical solution of semilinear parabolic PDEs on unbounded spatial domains in R2 whose solutions blow up in finite time. Of particular interest are the cases where = R2 or is a sectorial domain in R2. We derive the nonlinear absorbing boundary conditions for corresponding, suitably chosen computational domains and then employ a simple adaptive time-stepping scheme to compute the ...
