In this note, we investigated existence and uniqueness of entropy solution for triply nonlinear degenerate parabolic problem with zero-flux boundary condition. Accordingly to the case of doubly nonlinear degenerate parabolic hyperbolic equation, we propose a generalization of entropy formulation and prove existence and uniqueness result without any structure condition.

A lumped mass approximation scheme of a low order Crouzeix-Raviart type noncon- forming triangular finite element is proposed to a kind of nonlinear parabolic integro-differential equations. The L2 error estimate is derived on anisotropic meshes without referring to the traditional nonclassical elliptic projection.

EXISTENCE AND ASYMPTOTIC BEHAVIOR OF SOLUTIONS FOR NONLINEAR PARABOLIC EQUATIONS WITH VARIABLE EXPONENT OF NONLINEARITY

The authors of this article study the existence and uniqueness of weak so- lutions of the initial-boundary value problem for ut = div（（｜u｜^δ ＋ d0）｜↓△｜^p（x,t）-2↓△u） ＋ f（x, t） （0 〈 δ 〈 2）. They apply the method of parabolic regularization and Galerkin＇s method to prove the existence of solutions to the mentioned problem and then prove the uniqueness of the weak solution by arguing by contradiction. The authors prove that the solution approaches 0 in L^2 （Ω） norm as t →∞.

GRADIENT ESTIMATES AND LIOUVILLE THEOREMS FOR LINEAR AND NONLINEAR PARABOLIC EQUATIONS ON RIEMANNIAN MANIFOLDS

In this article, we will derive local elliptic type gradient estimates for positive solutions of linear parabolic equations （△-e/et）u（x,t）＋q（x,t）u^p（x,t）=0 and nonlinear parabolic equations （△-e/et）u（x,t）＋h（x,t）u^p（x,t）=0（p 〉 1） on Riemannian manifolds.As applications, we obtain some theorems of Liouville type for positive ancient solutions of such equations. Our results generalize that of Souplet-Zhang （[1], Bull. London Math. Soc. 38（2006）, 1045-1053） and the author （[2], Nonlinear Anal. 74 （2011）, 5141-5146）.

Hamilton-Souplet-Zhang's gradient estimates for two weighted nonlinear parabolic equations

In this paper, we consider gradient estimates for positive solutions to the following weighted nonlinear parabolic equations on a complete smooth metric measure space with only Bakry-Émery Ricci tensor bounded below: One is $${u_t} = {\Delta _f}u + au\log u + bu$$ with a, b two real constants, and another is $${u_t} = {\Delta _f}u + \lambda {u^\alpha }$$ with λ, α two real constants. We obtain local Hamilton-Souplet-Zhang type gradient estimates for the above two nonlinear parabolic equations. In particular, our estimates do not depend on any assumption on f.

On the Computation of Extinction Time for Some Nonlinear Parabolic Equations

The phenomenon of extinction is an important property of solutions for many evolutionary equa-tions. In this paper, a numerical simulation for computing the extinction time of nonnegative solu-tions for some nonlinear parabolic equations on general domains is presented.

Improved nonlinear parabolized stability equations approach for hypersonic boundary layers

The nonlinear parabolized stability equations(NPSEs)approach is widely used to study the evolution of disturbances in hypersonic boundary layers owing to its high computational efficiency.However,divergence of the NPSEs will occur when disturbances imposed at the inlet no longer play a leading role or when the nonlinear effect becomes very strong.Two major improvements are proposed here to deal with the divergence of the NPSEs.First,all disturbances are divided into two types:dominant waves and non-dominant waves.Disturbances imposed at the inlet or playing a leading role are defined as dominant waves,with all others being defined as non-dominant waves.Second,the streamwise wavenumbers of the non-dominant waves are obtained using the phase-locked method,while those of the dominant waves are obtained using an iterative method.Two reference wavenumbers are introduced in the phase-locked method,and methods for calculating them for different numbers of dominant waves are discussed.Direct numerical simulation(DNS)is performed to verify and validate the predictions of the improved NPSEs in a hypersonic boundary layer on an isothermal swept blunt plate.The results from the improved NPSEs approach are in good agreement with those of DNS,whereas the traditional NPSEs approach is subject to divergence,indicating that the improved NPSEs approach exhibits greater robustness.

Partition of Unity for a Class of Nonlinear Parabolic Equation on Overlapping Non-Matching Grids

A class of nonlinear parabolic equation on a polygonal domain Ω R2 is inves- tigated in this paper. We introduce a finite element method on overlapping non-matching grids for the nonlinear parabolic equation based on the partition of unity method. We give the construction and convergence analysis for the semi-discrete and the fully discrete finite element methods. Moreover, we prove that the error of the discrete variational problem has good approximation properties. Our results are valid for any spatial dimensions. A numerical example to illustrate the theoretical results is also given.

NEW ALTERNATING DIRECTION FINITE ELEMENT SCHEME FOR NONLINEAR PARABOLIC EQUATION

A new alternating direction (AD) finite element (FE) scheme for 3-dimensional nonlinear parabolic equation and parabolic integro-differential equation is studied. By using AD,the 3-dimensional problem is reduced to a family of single space variable problems, calculation work is simplified; by using FE, high accuracy is kept; by using various techniques for priori estimate for differential equations such as inductive hypothesis reasoning, the difficulty arising from the nonlinearity is treated. For both FE and ADFE schemes, the convergence properties are rigorously demonstrated, the optimal H1- and L2-norm space estimates and the O((△t)2) estimate for time variable are obtained.
