Some isoperimetric results concerning undirectional flows in microchannels

Three isoperimetric results are treated. (i) At a given pressure gradient, for all channels with given (cross-sectional) area that which maximises the steady flow $Q_{\rm steady}$ has a circular cross-section. (ii) Consider flows starting from prescribed initial conditions developing from a prescrib...
