This paper concerns the study of the numerical approximation for the following parabolic equations with a nonlinear convection term $$\\ \left\{% \begin{array}{ll} \hbox{$u_t(x,t)=u_{xx}(x,t)-g(u(x,t))u_{x}(x,t)+f(u(x,t)),\quad 0<x<1,\; t>0$,} \\ \hbox{$u_{x}(0,t)=0, \quad u_{x}(1,t)=0,\quad t>0$,} \\ \hbox{$u(x,0)=u_{0}(x) > 0,\quad 0\leq x \leq 1$,} \\ \end{array}% \right. $$ \newline where $f:[0,+\infty)\rightarrow [0,+\infty)$ is $C^3$ convex, nondecreasing function,\\ $g:[0,+\infty)\rightarrow [0,+\infty)$ is $C^1$ convex, nondecreasing function,\newline $\displaystyle\lim_{s\rightarrow +\infty}f(s)=+\infty$, $\displaystyle\lim_{s\rightarrow +\infty}g(s)=+\infty$, $\displaystyle\lim_{s\rightarrow +\infty}\frac{f(s)}{g(s)}=+\infty$\newline and $\displaystyle\int^{+\infty}_{c}\frac{ds}{f(s)}<+\infty$ for $c>0$. We obtain some conditions under which the solution of the semidiscrete form of the above problem blows up in a finite time and estimate its semidiscrete blow-up time. We also prove that the semidiscrete blow-up time converges to the real one, when the mesh size goes to zero. Finally, we give some numerical results to illustrate ours analysis.

We present evolution arguments of studying uniqueness and asymptotic stability of blow-up self-similar solutions of second-order nonlinear parabolic equations from combustion and filtration theory. The analysis uses intersection comparison techniques based on the Sturm Theorem on zero set for linear parabolic equations. We show that both uniqueness and stability of similarity ODE profiles are directly related to the asymptotic structure of their domain of attraction relative to the corresponding parabolic evolution.

In this paper, we study the numerical approximation for the following initial-boundary value problem v_t=v_{xx}+v^q\int_{0}^{t}v^p(x,s)ds, x\in(0,1), t\in(0,T) v(0,t)=0, v_x(1,t)=0, t\in(0,T) v(x,0)=v_0(x)&gt;0}, x\in(0,1) where q&gt;1, p&gt;0. Under some assumptions, it is&nbsp; shown that the solution of a semi-discrete form of this problem blows up in the finite time and estimate its semi-discrete blow-up time. We also prove that the semi-discrete blows-up time converges to the real one when the mesh size goes to zero. A similar study has been also undertaken for a discrete form of the above problem. Finally, we give some numerical results to illustrate our analysis.
