Abstract

We study unbounded solutions of a broad class of initial–boundary value problems for multidimensional quasilinear parabolic equations with a nonlinear source. By using a conservation law, we obtain conditions imposed solely on the input data and ensuring that a solution of the problem blows up in finite time. The blow-up time of the solution is estimated from above. By approximating the source function with the use of Steklov averaging with weight function coordinated with the nonlinear coefficients of the elliptic operator, we construct finite-difference schemes satisfying a grid counterpart of the integral conservation law.
