Blow-up of radially symmetric solutions of a non-local problem modelling Ohmic heating

We consider a non-local initial boundary-value problem for the equation $$ u_t=Delta u+lambda f(u)/Big(int_{Omega}f(u),dxBig)^2 ,quad x in Omega subset mathbb{R}^2 ,,;t>0, $$ where $u$ represents a temperature and $f$ is a positive and decreasing function. It is shown that for the radially symmet...
