Boundary layer effects for the nonlinear evolution equations with the vanishing diffusion limit (Q1727031)

Summary: We study an initial-boundary value problem for a nonlinear evolution system with damping and diffusion; our main purpose is to investigate the boundary layer effects when the vanishing diffusion limit \(\alpha \rightarrow 0^+\), especially for the mixed boundary conditions; we prove that the thickness of layer is of the order \(O(\alpha)\). Furthermore, the corresponding convergence rates are also obtained.
