This analytical investigation examines the magnetohydrodynamic flow problem of an incompressible micropolar fluid between the two eccentrically placed disks. Employing suitable transformations, the flow governing partial differential equations is reduced to ordinary differential equations. An exact solution representing the different flow characteristic of micropolar fluid has been derived by s...

In this paper a mathematical analysis of effect of couple stresses on magneto hydrodynamic (MHD) flow past a parallel plate channel of viscous, incompressible and electrically conducting fluid in the presence of porous medium has been studied. An exact solution of the dimensionless governing equations has been obtained by using method of perturbation technique. The effects on velocity, discharg...

In the present investigation, the magnetohydrodynamic Falkner-Skan flow of tangent hyperbolic nanofluids over a stretching/shrinking wedge with variable suction, internal heat generation/absorption and chemical reaction with activation energy have been scrutinized. Nanofluid model is composed of “Brownian motion’’ and “Thermophoresis’’. Transformed non-dimensional coupled non-linear equations a...

Free convection flow in an enclosure filled with a congealing melt leads to the product with a nonuniform structure involving large grains. The convective flows are decreased by applying an appropriate magnetic field, obtaining uniform and small grain structures. In this work, using the finite volume method, we investigated the application of a magnetic field to the convective heat transfer and...

Wavefront sensor is a device that measures the optical wavefront aberration. The Shack Hartmann wavefront sensor (SHWS), named after Johannes Franz Hartmann and Roland Shack, is one of the most often used optical wavefront sensor. It is made up of an array of microlenses (all having the same focal length and aperture size) and a detector placed at the focal plane of these microlenses. Johannes ...

Abstract In this article, we have investigated the peristaltic transport of electro-osmotic flow Jeffrey fluid in an asymmetric channel, which walls are modulated by array patches. presence Electrical Debye Layer (EDL), Poisson Boltzmann equation for electrical potential within micro channel is considered. To evaluate potential, Debye-Huckel linearization employed governing equations modeled an...

Abstract. – OBJECTIVE: Pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP) is a clinical syndrome that is mainly characterized by the presence of mucinous ascites that results from the rupture of a mucin-producing neoplasm. No reports exist so far regarding the management of this syndrome in HIV patients. CASE REPORT: A 54-year old male patient with a diagnosed atypical colitis developed additionally over time a comp...

We study the stability of cylindrical Taylor-Couette flow in the presence of azimuthal magnetic fields, and show that one obtains nonaxisymmetric magnetorotational instabilities, having azimuthal wave number m=1. For Omega{o}/Omega{i} only slightly greater than the Rayleigh value (r{i}/r{o}){2}, the critical Reynolds and Hartmann numbers are Re{c} approximately 10{3} and Ha{c} approximately 10{...
