In this paper, natural frequencies of the sandwich plates with soft flexible core and composite face sheets are obtained. Three-Dimensional (3D) finite element method (FEM) is used for constructing and analyzing of the sandwich plates to obtain their natural frequencies. Continuity conditions for transverse shear stresses at the interfaces as well as transverse flexibility and transverse normal...

The entropy generation during hydromagnetic boundary layer flow of a viscous incompressible electrically conducting fluid due to radial stretching sheet with Newtonian heating in the presence of a transverse magnetic field and the thermal radiation has been analyzed. The governing equations are then solved numerically by using the fourth order Runge-Kutta method with shooting technique. The eff...

In the present study, a compact analytical model is developed to determine the pressure drop of fully-developed, incompressible, and constant properties slip-flow through arbitrary cross-section microchannels. An averaged firstorder Maxwell slip boundary condition is considered. Introducing a relative velocity, the difference between the bulk flow and the boundary velocities, the axial momentum...

in this paper, a thermoelasticity solution for steady state response of thick cylinders which are subjected to pressure and external heat flux in inner surface is presented. displacement field obeys the kinematics of the first order shear deformation theory (fsdt). it is assumed that the temperature varies both along the length and the thickness. the variation of the temperature occurs linearly...

in this paper, the effect of different boundary conditions on the free vibration analysis response of a sandwich plates is presented using higher order shear deformation theory. the face sheets are orthotropic laminated composite that follow the first order shear deformation theory (fsdt) based on rissners-mindlin (rm) kinematics field. based on energy method and hamilton's principle, the ...

This paper presents a theoretical study on the velocity distribution and the friction factor of boundary layer flows with polymer additives starting from the concept of “stress deficit.” A novel method of order of magnitude analysis is developed, which converts the governing equations of boundary layer flow into a solvable ordinary differential equation, thus the total shear stress distribution...

The present study aimed to identify threshold shear stresses to cause benthic invertebrates to drift in boundary shear layers. Laboratory experiments were carried out in a small tilting flume, 10 cm wide and 3 m long with a closed recirculation system and a fixed sand bottom of uniform grain size. Benthic invertebrates from different orders (Achaeta, Gastropoda, Crustacea, Ephemeroptera, Odonat...

This communication influences on magnetohydrodynamic flow of viscoelastic fluid with magnetic field induced by oscillating plate. General solutions have been found out for velocity and shear stress profiles using mathematical transformations (Integral transforms). The governing partial differential equations have been solved analytically under boundary conditions u(0,t)=A_0 H(t)sinΩt and u(0,t)...
