The new challenges and trends emerging in mathematical sciences were discussed in a two-day national seminar on “Recent developments in application of mathematics in science and engineering” which concluded in the Annamacharya Institute of Technology and Sciences at Rajampet on Sunday.
“Analysis of natural and mixed convection flows within the square cavity using the heatlines concept and it was studied numerically using Bejan’s heatlines concept”, Prof. Satyajit Roy of Department of Mathematics, IIT - Chennai, who was chief guest said on Sunday.
A penalty finite element method was used to solve the velocity and thermal fields accurately, Prof. Roy said in his keynote address. Mass, momentum, angular momentum and energy are the properties to be studied and concentrated upon to develop any new concept in the fields of science and technology, Prof. J.V. Ramamurthy of Department of Mathematics in NIT, Warangal, said. They are the four basic fundamental laws involved in any field of science and technology, he added.
