We deal with a generalization of the Caginalp phase-field model associated with Neumann boundary conditions. We prove that the problem is well posed, before studying the long time behavior of solutions. We establish the existence of the global attractor, but also of exponential attractors. Finally, we study the spatial behavior of solutions in a semi-infinite cylinder, assuming that such solutions exist.

In this paper, the mixed initial-boundary value problem for inhomogeneous quasilinear strictly hyperbolic systems with nonlinear boundary conditions in the first quadrant $\left\{\right(t,x):t\ge 0,x\ge 0\}$ is investigated. Under the assumption that the right-hand side satisfies a matching condition and the system is strictly hyperbolic and weakly linearly degenerate, we obtain the global existence and uniqueness of a $C^1$ solution and its $L^1$ stability with certain small initial and boundary data.

In this paper, we prove the existence of a global solution to an initial-boundary value problem for 1-D flows of the viscous heat-conducting radiative and reactive gases. The key point here is that the growth exponent of heat conductivity is allowed to be any nonnegative constant; in particular, constant heat conductivity is allowed.

We consider the initial-value problem for a nonlinear hyperbolic-parabolic system of three coupled partial differential equations of second order describing the process of thermodiffusion in a solid body (in one-dimensional space). We prove global (in time) existence and uniqueness of the solution to the initial-value problem for this nonlinear system. The global existence is proved using time decay estimates for the solution of the associated linearized problem. Next, we prove an energy estimate...
