In this paper we present and discuss the results of some numerical simulations in order to investigate the mean curvature flow problem in the presence of a nonconvex anisotropy. Mathematically, nonconvexity of the anisotropy leads to the ill-posedness of the evolution problem, which becomes forward–backward parabolic. Simulations presented here refer to two different settings: curvature driven vertical motion of graphs (nonparametric setting) and motion in the normal direction by anisotropic mean curvature of surfaces (parametric setting). In the latter we first relax the problem via an Allen–Cahn type reaction-diffusion equation, in the context of Finsler geometry (diffused interface approximation). Our results suggest three main points. A nonconvex anisotropy and its convexification give rise, for both settings and the discretizations considered, to different evolutions. Wrinkled regions seem to appear only in correspondence to locally concave parts of the anisotropy. Moreover, locally convex regions (interior to the convexification of the so-called Frank diagram) seem to play an important role.

To construct the geometry in nonflat spaces in order to understand nature has great importance in terms of applied science. Finsler geometry allows accurate modeling and describing ability for asymmetric structures in this application area. In this paper, two-dimensional Finsler space metric function is obtained for Weibull distribution which is used in many applications in this area such as wind speed modeling. The metric definition for two-parameter Weibull probability density function which has shape (k) and scale (c) parameters in two-dimensional Finsler space is realized using a different approach by Finsler geometry. In addition, new probability and cumulative probability density functions based on Finsler geometry are proposed which can be used in many real world applications. For future studies, it is aimed at proposing more accurate models by using this novel approach than the models which have two-parameter Weibull probability density function, especially used for determination of wind energy potential of a region.
