Blow-up of weak solutions for the semilinear wave equations with nonlinear boundary and interior sources and damping

Lorena Bociu, Irena Lasiecka (2008)

Applicationes Mathematicae

We focus on the blow-up in finite time of weak solutions to the wave equation with interior and boundary nonlinear sources and dissipations. Our central interest is the relationship of the sources and damping terms to the behavior of solutions. We prove that under specific conditions relating the sources and the dissipations (namely p > m and k > m), weak solutions blow up in finite time.

Boundary sentinels in cylindrical domains.

J. Saint Jean Paulin, M. Vanninathan (2001)

Revista Matemática Complutense

We study a model describing vibrations of a cylindrical domain with thickness e > 0. A characteristic of this model is that it contains pollution terms in the boundary data and missing terms in the initial data. The method of sentinels'' of J. L. Lions [7] is followed to construct a sentinel using the observed vibrations on the boundary. Such a sentinel, by construction, provides information on pollution terms independent of missing terms. This requires resolution of initial-boundary value...

Breakdown in finite time of solutions to a one-dimensional wave equation.

Mokhtar Kirane, Salim A. Messaoudi (2000)

Revista Matemática Complutense

We consider a special type of a one-dimensional quasilinear wave equation wtt - phi (wt / wx) wxx = 0 in a bounded domain with Dirichlet boundary conditions and show that classical solutions blow up in finite time even for small initial data in some norm.
