Abstract

Convection-diffusion of heat transfer is one of the important phenomena in fluid flow and industrial problems. The involved parameters, boundary conditions, and material properties are greatly affecting the same. As such, the uncertainness of these parameters, conditions, and properties cannot be ignored. Therefore, the present research work focuses numerical approach to study the uncertain convection-diffusion of heat transfer problem. Here, the finite element method is employed with fuzzy uncertainties to investigate the uncertain temperatures for a plate problem. The uncertainty is considered with a 10% of error and then corresponding fuzzy numbers are generated. These fuzzy numbers are used in the governing differential equation and boundary conditions to get the nodal temperatures. A different combination of fuzzy parameters is considered and the obtained results are reported. Furthermore, the sensitiveness of these parameters is reported in a case study.

Average Chord Lengths in a Triangle

Let $P$ be a point inside a triangle $T$. We consider the average length of the chords of $T$ through $P$, where the direction of the chord is chosen uniformly. An elementary formula is obtained in terms of the distances from $P$ to the sides and vertices of the triangle. Several classical triangle centers give especially simple specializations. For example, if $I$ is the incenter, then \[ M_T(I)=\frac{2r}{\pi} \log\left(\cot\frac A4\cot\frac B4\cot\frac C4\right). \] Our main result is the sharp inequality \[ M_T(P)\le \frac{p}{\pi\sqrt3}\log(2+\sqrt3), \] valid simultaneously for every triangle of perimeter $p$ and every interior point $P$. Thus, among all such pairs $(T,P)$, the largest possible average chord length occurs only when $T$ is equilateral and $P$ is its center. The proof is an elementary symmetrization argument. We close with brief remarks relating the problem to the radial center of a convex body, the electrostatic potential center of a triangle, and dual quermassintegrals.

A Proof of Liu's Conjecture on the Fundamental Triangle Inequality

Let $a,b,c$ be the side lengths of a triangle, and let $R$ and $r$ denote its circumradius and inradius, respectively. We prove a conjecture of Liu stating that \[\sum_{\mathrm{cyc}} \left(\frac{a(b+c-a)}{bc}\right)^k \geq 2+\left(\frac{2r}{R}\right)^k,~~k>1, \] with the reverse inequality for $0<k<1$. The proof reduces the problem to three positive variables with fixed sum and product. We also determine the equality cases.
