data of the problem, which ensure the non-singularity
of

it was proved that the classical solution

For the singular problems the Solvability was
established in the class of generalized solutions: firstly in the
simplest case of one-dimensional motion by
G.V.
Alekseyev and
N.V.
Husnutdinova
[6,
1361,
then by
S.N.
Antontsev
[7,

for plane-
parallel flows.
At
the next stage it was proved
[20
to
22, 1561
that in the ge-
neral three-dimensional case asw well, the Masket-Leverette's
equations are reduced
to
the elliptic-parabolic system, if the
saturation
s(x,
t)
and some mean pressure
p(x,
t)
are taken as
the unknown functions. Owing to this circumstance, the existence
of
the generalised solutions to the boundary-value problems was
proved and some significant qualitative properties of these solu-
tions were established: the maximum principle for the saturation
s(x,
t)
ensuring the satisfiability of the inequalities

investigated the differential properties
of the generalized solutions nd the quest on8
of
uniqueness for
the singular problems. Works

show that such pro-
perties as the finite velocity of propagation of perturbations of
the saturation values
s(x,

and the finite time of the stabili-
zation of Solutions with increasing the time, are characteristic
for
the solut on f the singular problems.

solution to the two-dimensional regular boundary-value problems
and proved their convergence. The substantiation

With this the presentation of hydrodynamic models is completed.
All the above formulations of the initial-boundary problems are
characterized by the common feature that the sets
of
equations
are non-linear and are
of
a compound type. When studying them in
the following chapters use is made
of the general methods of solu-
tion of the evolutionary boundary-value problems presented, for
example, in monographs by 0.A.Ladyzhenskaya
[go]
and J.-L.Lions.
While proving the existence theorems, major efforts are concentra-
ted
on obtaining a priori estimates, on the basis of which, with
the aid of familiar theorems from analysis
(Banach's principle for
the contractive mappings or Schauder's principle for completely
continuous operators
[
981)
or by the method
of
Bubnov-Galerkin
[

the solvability of the problems is proved.
