Abstract:
We consider a $(1+1)$-dimensional thermal–electrical model of semiconductor heating in an electric field. For the corresponding initial-boundary value problem, we prove the existence of a classical solution that cannot be continued in time and obtain sufficient conditions for the blow-up of the solution in a finite time.
Keywords:nonlinear Sobolev-type equations, solution blow-up, local solvability, nonlinear capacity, blow-up time estimates.
