In this paper we study a system of delay differential equations from the viewpoint of a finite time blow-up of the solution. We prove that the system admits a blow-up solution, no matter how small the length of the delay is. In the…
In this article, we investigate the blow-up behavior of solutions to the one-dimensional damped nonlinear wave equation, namely $$ \partial_t^2 u - \partial_x^2 u + \frac{\mu}{1 + t} \partial_t u = |\partial_t u|^p \quad (p > 1). $$ Under…
