This paper concerns a superlinear parabolic equation, degenerate in the time derivative. It is shown that the solution may blow up in finite time. Moreover it is proved that for a large class of initial data blow-up occurs at the boundary of the domain when the nonlinearity is no worse than quadratic. Various estimates are obtained which determine the asymptotic behaviour near the blow-up. The ...

Abstract This paper deals with the blow-up properties of the solution to the degenerate and singular parabolic system with nonlocal sources, absorptions and homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions. The existence of a unique classical nonnegative solution is established and the sufficient conditions for the solution to exist globally or blow up in finite time are obtained. Furthermore, under c...

In this work, we investigate the following Kirchhoff-type equation with variable exponent nonlinearities u_{tt}-M(‖∇u‖²)△u+|u_{t}|^{p(x)-2}u_{t}=|u|^{q(x)-2}u. We proved the blow up of solutions in finite time by using modified energy functional method.

In this work, we investigate the dynamics of a non-local model describing spontaneous cell polarisation. It consists in a drift-diffusion equation set in the half-space, with the coupling involving the trace value on the boundary. We characterize the following behaviours in the one-dimensional case: solutions are global if the mass is below the critical mass and they blow-up in finite time abov...

In this paper we consider the numerical solution of PDEs with blow-up for which scaling invariance plays a natural role in describing the underlying solution structures. It is a challenging numerical problem to capture the qualitative behaviour in the blow-up region, and the use of nonuniform meshes is essential. We consider moving mesh methods for which the mesh is determined using so-called m...

In this paper we study the asymptotic behaviour of a semidiscrete numerical approximation for the heat equation, ut = ∆u, in a bounded smooth domain, with a nonlinear flux boundary condition at the boundary, ∂u ∂η = up. We focus in the behaviour of blowing up solutions. First we prove that every numerical solution blows up in finite time if and only if p > 1 and that the numerical blow-up time ...
