R. Quintanilla, SPATIAL BOUNDS AND GROWTH-ESTIMATES FOR THE HEAT-EQUATION WITH 3 RELAXATION-TIMES, Mathematical methods in the applied sciences, 20(15), 1997, pp. 1335-1344
In this note we investigate spatial bounds for the heat conduction equ
ation with three relaxation times. We use energy methods similar to th
ose considered in the study of the backward parabolic heat equation. F
inally, we show that for any positive choice of the coefficients we ma
y take initial data for which the solution is unstable when we suppose
that the body is bounded. (C) 1997 by B. G. Teubner Stuttgart-John Wi
