Abstract

An existence result of renormalized solutions for nonlinear parabolic Cauchy-Dirichlet problems whose model
$$\left\{\begin{array}{ll} \displaystyle\frac{\partial b(x,u)}{\partial t} -\mbox{div}\>\mathcal{A}(x,t,u,\nabla u)-\mbox{div}\> \Phi(x,t,u)= f &\mbox{ in }\Omega\times (0,T)\\ b(x,u)(t=0)=b(x,u_0) & \mbox{ in } \Omega\\ u=0 &\mbox{ on } \partial\Omega\times (0,T). \end{array}\right.$$
is given in the non reflexive Musielak spaces, where $b(x,\cdot)$ is a strictly increasing $C^1$-function for every $x\in\Omega$ with $b(x,0)=0$, the lower order term $\Phi$ is a non coercive Carath'{e}odory function satisfying only a natural growth condition described by the appropriate Musielak function $\varphi$ and $f$ is an integrable data.
