Submitted: May 15, 2013; Accepted: Jun 23, 2013; Published: Jul 22, 2013 Abstract: Stagnation-point flow of a nanofluid over a nonlinear stretching sheet is investigated theoretically when the sheet is stretched with a power law velocity under a constant wall temperature. The governing nonlinear problem incorporates the effects of Brownian motion and thermophoresis is transformed by using appro...

In this article, a numerical investigation of magnetohydrodynamic non-Newtonian nanofluid flow on a stretching sheet through an isotropic porous medium. The effects of both non-linear thermal radiation and heat generation/absorption were studied on distributions of velocity, temperature and concentration. On the other side, the governing partial differential equations have been transformed by u...

In this paper, we studied MHD two dimensional flow of an incompressible tangent hyperbolic fluid flow and heat transfer towards a stretching sheet with velocity and thermal slip. Lie group analysis is used to develop new similarity transformation, using these similarity transformation the governing nonlinear partial differential equation are reduced into a system of coupled nonlinear ordinary d...

A layered construct was developed by combining a porous polymer sheet and a cell sheet as a tissue engineered vascular patch. The primary objective of this study is to investigate the influence of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) sheet on the tensile mechanical properties of porous poly-(l-lactide-co-ε-caprolactone) (PLCL) sheet. The porous PLCL sheet was fabricated by the solid-liquid phase separ...

the problem of steady magnetohydrodynamic boundary layer flow of an electrically conducting nanofluid due to an exponentially permeable stretching sheet with heat source/sink in presence of thermal radiation is numerically investigated. the effect of transverse brownian motion and thermophoresis on heat transfer and nano particle volume fraction considered. the governing partial differential eq...

the heat and mass transfer analysis for mhd casson fluid boundary layer flow over a permeable stretching sheet through a porous medium is carried out. the effect of non-uniform heat generation/absorption and chemical reaction are considered in heat and mass transport equations correspondingly. the heat transfer analysis has been carried out for two different heating processes namely; the prescr...
