Form of nonlinear diffusion equation
Consider the following nonlinear diffusion problem,
$$
\frac{\partial u}{\partial t} = x^{-2}\frac{\partial}{\partial x}\left(x^2 u^4 \frac{\partial u}{\partial x}\right), \quad 0 < x < 1
$$
We ...

How do I use pdepe for a first order parabolic PDE with only one boundary condition?
I am trying to use Matlab's pdepe.m to solve the first order parabolic PDE
$$\frac{\partial u}{\partial x}+\frac{\partial u}{\partial x}=x$$
I have not had trouble coding the argument of pdepe @pdefun:...

Question on how MATLAB's pdepe solver works
I'm solving the following 1D transport equation in MATLAB's pdepe solver.
$$\frac{\partial C}{\partial t} = D\frac{\partial ^2 C}{\partial x^2}-v\frac{\partial C}{\partial x}$$
At the inlet (left ...
