Abstract

We investigate blow-up phenomena for positive solutions of nonlinear reaction-diffusion equations including a nonlinear convection term tu=Δug(u)u+f(u)\partial_t u = \Delta u - g(u) \cdot \nabla u + f(u) in a bounded domain of RN\mathbb{R}^N under the dissipative dynamical boundary conditions σtu+νu=0\sigma \partial_t u + \partial_\nu u =0. Some conditions on gg and ff are discussed to state if the positive solutions blow up in finite time or not. Moreover, for certain classes of nonlinearities, an upper-bound for the blow-up time can be derived and the blow-up rate can be determinated.
