A Neumann problem for a convection-diffusion equation on the half-line

Piotr Biler, Grzegorz Karch (2000)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

We study solutions to a nonlinear parabolic convection-diffusion equation on the half-line with the Neumann condition at x=0. The analysis is based on the properties of self-similar solutions to that problem.

The problems of blow-up for nonlinear heat equations. Complete blow-up and avalanche formation

Juan Luis Vázquez (2004)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti Lincei. Matematica e Applicazioni

Similarity:

We review the main mathematical questions posed in blow-up problems for reaction-diffusion equations and discuss results of the author and collaborators on the subjects of continuation of solutions after blow-up, existence of transient blow-up solutions (so-called peaking solutions) and avalanche formation as a mechanism of complete blow-up.
