Bounds for blow-up time in nonlinear parabolic systems under various boundary conditions

we consider blow-up solutions to parabolic systems, coupled through their nonlinearities under various boundary conditions with nonlinearities depending on the gradient solution. To obtain a lower bound to blow up time t* for the vector solution, Sobolev-type inequalities are introduced to make use of a differential inequality technique. In addition for Dirichlet systems sufficient conditions are introduced to derive an upper bound for t* and to have a criterion for the global existence of the vector solution
