Description
In some models (for example, in plasma physics and semiconductor physics), the blow-up phenomenon occurs, i. e. the solution's norm tends to infinity as time tends to a finite moment. There exist some methods to detect blow-up analytically: Pokhozhaev and Mitidieri's test function method, Levine's method, and Samarskii and Galaktionov's similarity solutions method. These methods typically provide us with an estimation of the blow-up moment. The numerical algorithm (based on N. N. Kalitkin and co-authors' ideas), however, allows us to specify the moment and the process of the solution’s blow-up by using Richardson's effective accuracy order. In particular, one can obtain the blow-up moment with the accuracy up to mesh interval. Some numerical experiments will be presented in order to demonstrate the effectiveness of the method.
