Abstract
Quasilinear transmission problems of both the elliptic and pseudoparabolic type with differential operators in divergence form simulating oxygen transport in capillary and tissue are investigated. Using recent methods of the theory of pseudomonotone operators and singular perturbations (elliptic regularization) the existence of weak solutions for both problems has been proven. Moreover, the weak solution of the elliptic problem proves to be a solution in the classical sense. Finally, at most one classical solution of a slightly modified pseudoparabolic problem exists.Keywords
