This paper is devoted to the study of the natural convection of a viscous incompressible fluid in a two-dimensional cell with combined vertical and horizontal heating in symmetrical and asymmetrical cases; investigation of the dependence of the maximum speed and intensity of heat exchange on different heating regimes.

In the present investigation, problem of heat transfer has been studied during peristaltic motion of a viscous incompressible fluid for two-dimensional nonuniform channel with permeable walls under long wavelength and low Reynolds number approximation. Expressions for pressure, friction force, and temperature are obtained. The effects of different parameters on pressure, friction force, and temperature have been discussed through graphs.

Thermoregulation is a complex mechanism regulating heat production within the body (chemical thermoregulation) and heat exchange between the body and the environment (physical thermoregulation) in such a way that the heat exchange is balanced and deep body temperatures are relatively stable. The external heat transfer mechanisms are radiation, conduction, convection and evaporation. The physical activity causes thermal stress and poses challenges for this thermoregulation. In this paper, a model has been developed to study temperature distribution in SST regions of human limbs immediately after physical exercise under cold climate. It is assumed that the subject is doing exercise initially and comes to rest at time t = 0. The human limb is assumed to be of cylindrical shape. The peripheral region of limb is divided into three natural components namely epidermis, dermis and subdermal tissues (SST). Appropriate boundary conditions have been framed based on the physical conditions of the problem. Finite difference has been employed for time, radial and angular variables. The numerical results have been used to obtain temperature profiles in the SST region immediately after continuous exercise for a two-dimensional unsteady state case. The results have been used to analyze the thermal stress in relation to light, moderate and vigorous intensity exercise.

This review article gives a historical overview of some topics related to the classical 2D biharmonic problem. This problem arises in many physical studies concerning bending of clamped thin elastic isotropic plates, equilibrium of an elastic body under conditions of plane strain or plane stress, or creeping flow of a viscous incompressible fluid. The object of this paper is both to elucidate some interesting points related to the history of the problem and to give an overview of some analytical approaches to its solution. This review article contains 758 references.

In this paper we consider a 2π-periodic and two-dimensional Hele-Shaw flow describing the motion of a viscous, incompressible fluid. The free surface is moving under the influence of surface tension and gravity. The motion of the fluid is modelled using a modified version of Darcy's law for Stokesian fluids. The bottom of the cell is assumed to be impermeable. We prove the existence of a unique classical solution for a domain which is a small perturbation of a cylinder. Moreover, we identify the equilibria of the flow and study their stability.
