This paper is concerned with the experimental identification of some chemoporoelastic parameters of a chemically reactive shale from data obtained in pore pressure transmission-chemical potential tests. The parameter identification is carried out by matching the observed pressure response with a theoretical solution of the experiment. This solution is obtained within the framework of Biot theor...

We report the integration of a FMM (Fast Multipole Method) template library “FMMTL” into the discrete circulation-preserving vortex sheets method to accelerate the Biot-Savart integral. We measure the speed-up on a bubble oscillation test with varying mesh resolution. We also report a few examples with higher complexity than previously achieved.

We solve exactly the problem of calculating the electromagnetic fields produced by a finite wire with a constant current, by using two methods: retarded potentials and Jefimenko’s formalism. One result in this particular case is that the usual Biot–Savart law of magnetostatics gives the correct magnetic field of the problem. We also show graphically the corresponding Poynting vector.

This work explores the heat transfer flow characteristics of an incompressible non-Newtonian Jeffrey fluid over a stretching/shrinking surface with thermal radiation and source. The sheet is linearly stretched in presence transverse magnetic field convective boundary conditions. Appropriate similarity variables are used to transform basic governing equations (PDEs) into ODEs. resulting solved b...

This study presents the computational analysis of three dimensional Casson and Carreau nanofluid flow concerning the convective conditions. To do so, the flow equations are modified to nonlinear system of ODEs after using appropriate self-similarity functions. The solution for the modified system is evaluated by numerical techniques. The results show the impacts of involving variables on flow c...

The macrocyclic polyketides FK506, FK520, and rapamycin are potent immunosuppressants that prevent T-cell proliferation through initial binding to the immunophilin FKBP12. Analogs of these molecules are of considerable interest as therapeutics in both metastatic and inflammatory disease. For these polyketides the starter unit for chain assembly is (4R,5R)-4,5-dihydroxycyclohex-1-enecarboxylic a...

This paper considers the application of multiscale finite element method (FEM) to the modeling of cancellous bone as an alternative for Biot's model, the main intention of which is to decrease the extent of the necessary laboratory tests. At the beginning, the paper gives a brief explanation of the multiscale concept and thereafter focuses on the modeling of the representative volume element an...
