Abstract—This work consists of a numerical simulation of convective heat transfer in a vertical plane channel filled with a heat generating porous medium, in the absence of local thermal equilibrium. The walls are maintained to a constant temperature and the inlet velocity is uniform. The dynamic range is described by the Darcy-Brinkman model and the thermal field by two energy equations model....

In this article, the bending and free vibration analysis of functionally graded (FG) nanocomposites Timoshenko beam model reinforced by single-walled boron nitride nanotube (SWBNNT) using micro-mechanical approach embedded in an elastic medium is studied. The modified coupled stress (MCST) and nonlocal elasticity theories are developed to take into account the size-dependent effect. The mechani...

In this paper the nano conical shell model is developed based on modified strain gradient theory. The governing equations of the nano truncated conical shell are derived using the FSDT, and the size parameters through modified strain gradient theory have been taken into account. Hamilton’s principle is used to obtain the governing equations, and the shell’s equations of motion are derived with ...

The propagation of low frequency or long wavelength disturbances in periodically layered media is considered. An asymptotic series is derived for the frequency of the first branch of the Bloch wave spectrum. The expansion is in dimensionless wavenumber and is developed explicitly for SH waves traveling obliquely through layerings with arbitrary periodic stratification. The first dispersive term...

In this paper, the free vibration behaviors and flexural sensitivity of atomic force microscope cantilevers with small-scale effects are investigated. To study the small-scale effects on natural frequencies and flexural sensitivity, the consistent couple stress theory is applied. In this theory, the couple stress is assumed skew-symmetric. Unlike the classical beam theory, the new model contain...

For the problem of large dimensionless index fluctuations in rotating machinery complex fault and that the corresponding scope is difficult to determine. In this paper proposes a rotating machinery complex fault method that combined dimensionless and the least squares method filtering. This method implementation filtering and determine the scope of the dimensionless index. By doing experiments ...

In Part I of the present paper a parameter analysis showed that the most e$cient model to describe viscothermal wave propagation is the low reduced frequency model. In order to demonstrate the wide range of applicability of the low reduced frequency model, a number of examples from the literature are discussed in Part II. An overview of fundamental solutions and general applications is given. B...

Flow visualizations are presented for acoustic streaming occurring inside spherical elastic cavities oscillating in an acoustic field. Streaming flows are visualized using Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) and results are observed for a range of values of a dimensionless frequency parameter, M =120-306. Over the frequency range investigated, streaming flow fields remain steady at a given value o...
