Abstract
This paper investigated oscillatory properties of solutions for nonlinear parabolic equations with impulsive effects under two different boundary conditions. By using integral averaging method, variable substitution and functional differential inequalities, we established several sufficient conditions. At last, we provided two examples to illustrate the results.

Γ of problems (1), (3) ((4)) is called non-oscillatory in the domain G if it is either eventually positive or eventually negative. Otherwise, it is called oscillatory.OALibJ | DOI:10.4236/oalib.1101168 3 December 2014 | Volume 1 | e1168 In 1991, the first paper [7] on this class of equations was published. However, we only find a few of papers on oscillation theory of impulsive partial differential equations. Recently, Bainov, Minchev, Fu, and Liu [8]-[12]
investigated the oscillation of solutions of impulsive partial differential equations with or without deviating ar-guments, and Tanaka, Luo, and Shoukaku [13]-[15] discussed the oscillation of solutions of partial differential equations with continuous distributed deviating arguments. However, there is a scarcity in the study of forced oscillation theory of nonlinear impulsive parabolic equations of neutral type with continuous distributed deviat-ing arguments.

1) If we suppose that L= −∞, then limt→∞ y t

4. Remarks and Examples
Remarks. From the theoretical viewpoint, the results of this paper, uncovered the essential difference between partial differential equations with impulses, functional arguments and partial differential equations without im-pulses, functional arguments; from a practical standpoint, they are very convenient because these criteria only depend on the coefficients of the equations, impulsive term and the time-delays. The results of this article im-prove the results in the papers [17]-[19]. For example, paper [19] discussed the case with distributed deviating arguments; however, we consider a more complex case with continuous distributed deviating arguments.
The following are examples to illustrate the applicability of the conditions.
