The work is concerned with the following nonlinear reaction diffusion model with Dirichlet boundary conditions:
false(gfalse(ufalse)false)t=∇·false(ρfalse(false|∇u|pfalse)false|∇u|p−2∇ufalse)+hfalse(xfalse)kfalse(tfalse)ffalse(ufalse),in1emD×false(0,t∗false),ufalse(x,tfalse)=0,on1em∂D×false(0,t∗false),ufalse(x,0false)=u0false(xfalse)≥0,in1emtrueD¯,
where p ≥ 2 is a real number and
D⊂RNfalse(N≥2false) is a bounded domain with smooth boundary ∂D. Under some appropriate assumptions on the functions f,h,k,g,ρ, and initial value u0, by defining auxiliary functions and using a first‐order differential inequality technique, we not only present that the solution exists globally or blows up in a finite time but also compute the upper and lower bound for blow‐up time when blow‐up occurs. Additionally, two examples are given to illustrate the main results.
