Abstract

Abstract The thermal behavior of a piece of rubber during a vulcanization process is modelized by a set of two coupled differential equations. The first one is a classical nonlinear heat equation while the second is a reaction equation. The aim of this article is first to solve numerically the two equations using a finite element procedure for the partial differential equation and a Runge-Kutta like scheme for the reaction equation, and then to study the sensitivity of the solution to variations in some parameters.
