Finite element method for solving nonlinear parabolic equations. (English) Zbl 0716.65091

The author’s results for linear parabolic equations [Alkalmazott Mat. Lapok 11, 123-155 (1985; Zbl 0606.65077)] are extended. The convergence of semi-discrete approximations to the solution of the original problem is established and estimates for the convergence speed in different norms are represented.
