in this paper, homotopy perturbation method (hpm) has been applied to investigate the effect of magnetic field on cu-water nanofluid flow in non-parallel walls. the validity of hpm solutions were verified by comparing with numerical results obtained using a fourth order runge–kutta method. effects of active parameters on flow have been presented graphically. the results show that velocity in bo...

Abstract We study the excitation of fluting perturbations in a magnetic tube by an initially imposed kink mode. use ideal magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equations cold-plasma approximation. also thin-tube approximation and scale dependent independent variables accordingly. Then we assume that dimensionless amplitude mode is small it as expansion parameter regular perturbation method. obtain expressi...

In this paper an efficient method is developed for the analysis of non-regular graphs which contain regular submodels. A model is called regular if it can be expressed as the product of two or three subgraphs. Efficient decomposition methods are available in the literature for the analysis of some classes of regular models. In the present method, for a non-regular model, first the nodes of the ...

In this work, free convective fluid flow and heat transfer are analyzed in a horizontal cylindrical annulus in the presence of a porous geometric perturbation. The flow in the porous region is modeled using the Brinkman-Forchheimer-Darcy model. The numerical scheme used in the present study is based on a Galerkin method of the finite element formulation. The nature of the three-dimensional flow...

In this paper, we consider the inhomogeneous time-fractional nonlinear Fisher equation with three known boundary conditions. We first apply a modified Homotopy perturbation method for translating the proposed problem to a set of linear problems. Then we use the separation variables  method to solve obtained problems. In examples, we illustrate that by right choice of source term in the modified...

In the present work, a hybrid of Fourier transform and homotopy perturbation method is developed for solving the non-homogeneous partial differential equations with variable coefficients. The Fourier transform is employed with combination of homotopy perturbation method (HPM), the so called Fourier transform homotopy perturbation method (FTHPM) to solve the partial differential equations. The c...

the present research attempts to explain dynamic pull-in instability of functionally graded micro-cantilevers actuated by step dc voltage while the fringing-field effect is taken into account in the vibrational equation of motion. by employing modern asymptotic approach namely homotopy perturbation method with an auxiliary term, high-order frequency-amplitude relation is obtained, then the infl...

in oil industry, spontaneous imbibition is an important phenomenon in recovery from fractured reservoirs which can be defined as spontaneous uptake of a wetting fluid into a porous solid. spontaneous imbibition involves both cocurrent and countercurrent flows. when a matrix block is partially covered by water, oil recovery is dominated by cocurrent imbibition i.e. the production of non wetting ...

By means of He's homotopy perturbation method (HPM) an approximate solution of velocity eld is derived for the ow in straight pipes of non-Newtonian uid obeying the Sisko model. The nonlinear equations governing the ow in pipe are for- mulated and analyzed, using homotopy perturbation method due to He. Furthermore, the obtained solutions for velocity eld is graphically sketched...
