No label defined (Q4220113)

[For the entire collection see Zbl 0869.00011.] The article deals with the two-phase Stefan-type problem \[ \begin{gathered} u_{1xx}(x,t)=u_{1t}(x,t), \quad 0<x<s(t), \quad 0<t\leq T,\\ u_{2xx}(x,t)=u_{2t}(x,t), \quad s(t)<x<l, \quad 0<t\leq T, \end{gathered} \] with unknown free boundary \(s=s(t)\), \(s(0)=s_0\), under the conditions \[ u_1(s(t),t)= u_2(s(t),t)=0,\quad s'(t) = u_{2x}(s(t),t) - u_{1x}(s(t),t) \] and \[ u_1(0,t)=\alpha_1u_1(x_1,t),\quad u_2(l,t)=\alpha_2u_2(x_2,t),\quad 0\leq t\leq T, \] where \(0\leq\alpha_i\leq 1\), \(0<x_1\leq l_1<s_0<l_2\leq x_2 <l\). The problem is closed by initial data for \(u_1\) and \(u_2\). It is shown that this problem has a unique solution; furthermore, estimates for \(s(t)\) and \(u_1\), \(u_2\) are established.
