In this note, we prove blow-up results for semilinear wave models with damping and mass in the scale-invariant case and with nonlinear terms of derivative type. We consider the single equation and the weakly coupled system. In the first case we get a blow-up result for exponents below a certain shift of the Glassey exponent. For the weakly coupled system we find as critical curve a shift of the corresponding curve for the weakly coupled system of semilinear wave equations with the same kind of nonlinearities. Our approach follows the one for the respective classical wave equation by Zhou Yi. In particular, an explicit integral representation formula for a solution of the corresponding linear scale-invariant wave equation, which is derived by using Yagdjians integral transform approach, is employed in the blow-up argument. While in the case of the single equation we may use a comparison argument, for the weakly coupled system an iteration argument is applied.
In this paper, we study the blow-up of solutions for semilinear wave equations with scale-invariant dissipation and mass in the case in which the model is somehow wave-like. A Strauss type critical exponent is determined as the upper bound for the exponent in the nonlinearity in the main theorems. Two blow-up results are obtained for the sub-critical case and for the critical case, respectively. In both cases, an upper bound lifespan estimate is given.
The final goal of this paper is to prove existence of local (strong) solutions to a (fully nonlinear) porous medium equation with blow-up term and nondecreasing constraint. To this end, the equation, arising in the context of Damage Mechanics, is reformulated as a mixed form of two different types of doubly nonlinear evolution equations. Global (in time) solutions to some approximate problems are constructed by performing a time discretization argument and by taking advantage of energy techniques based on specific structures of the equation. Moreover, a variational comparison principle for (possibly non-unique) approximate solutions is established and it also enables us to obtain a local solution as a limit of approximate ones.
We study the inverse problem of recovery a non-linearity $f(x,u)$, which is compactly supported in $x$, in the semilinear wave equation $u_{tt}-Delta u+ f(x,u)=0$. We probe the medium with either complex or real-valued harmonic waves of wavelength $sim h$ and amplitude $sim 1$. They propagate in a regime where the non-linearity affects the subprincipal but not the principal term, except for the zeroth harmonics. We measure the transmitted wave when it exits $text{supp}_x f$. We show that one can recover $f(x,u)$ when it is an odd function of $u$, and we can recover $alpha(x)$ when $f(x,u)=alpha(x)u^{2m}$. This is done in an explicit way as $hto0$.
In this paper, we first establish a criterion based on contractive function for the existence of polynomial attractors. This criterion only involves some rather weak compactness associated with the repeated limit inferior and requires no compactness, which makes it suitable for critical cases. Then by this abstract theorem, we verify the existence of a polynomial attractor and estimate its attractive speed for the wave equation with nonlocal weak damping, anti-damping and critical nonlinearity.
The blow up problem of the semilinear scale-invariant damping wave equation with critical Strauss type exponent is investigated. The life span is shown to be: $T(varepsilon)leq Cexp(varepsilon^{-2p(p-1)})$ when $p=p_S(n+mu)$ for $0<mu<frac{n^2+n+2}{n+2}$. This result completes our previous study cite{Tu-Lin} on the sub-Strauss type exponent $p<p_S(n+mu)$. Our novelty is to construct the suitable test function from the modified Bessel function. This approach might be also applied to the other type damping wave equations.
