Abstract

Diffusion is an important phenomenon in various fields of science and engineering. It may arise in a variety of problems viz. in heat transfer, fluid flow problem and atomic reactors etc. As such these diffusion equations are being solved throughout the globe by various methods. It has been seen from literature that researchers have investigated these problems when the material properties, geometry (domain) etc. are in crisp (exact) form which is easier to solve. But in real practice the parameters used in the modelled physical problems are not crisp because of the experimental error, mechanical defect, measurement error etc. In that case the problem has to be defined with uncertain parameters and this makes the problem complex. In this chapter related uncertain differential equation of various diffusion problems will be investigated using finite element method, which may be called fuzzy or interval finite element method.
