Equations are established for the deformation of a viscoelastic porous solid containing a viscous fluid under the most general assumptions of anisotropy. The particular cases of transverse and complete isotropy are discussed. General solutions are also developed for the equations in the isotropic case. As an example the problem of the settlement of a loaded column is treated. The second-order e...

This paper studies the propagation of shear waves in a composite structure consisting of a piezoelectric layer perfectly bonded over a micropolar elastic half space. The general dispersion equations for the existence of shear waves are obtained analytically in the closed form. Some particular cases have been discussed and in one special case the relation obtained is in agreement with existing r...

a frequency-wavenumber-domain formulation is presented in this paper for calculation of the green's functions and wave propagation modes in a stratified fluid body underlain by a layered viscoelastic soil medium. the green's functions define the solid and fluid displacements and fluid pressures due to uniform disk loads acting in either the soil or fluid media. the solution is in the frequency ...

A computational fluid–solid dynamic model is employed to simulate the interaction between water waves and a consolidated ice cover. The solves Navier–Stokes equations for ocean-wave flow around solid body, behavior formalized by Maxwell viscoelastic model. Model predictions are compared against experimental flume tests of interacting with plates. decay rate wave dispersion predicted shown be in...

This article deals the entropy generation due to mixed convective flow of two non-miscible and electrically conducting fluids streaming through an inclined channel by considering convective boundary conditions at the walls of channel. Micropolar fluid is flowing adjacent to the upper wall of the channel and fluid flowing between the non-Newtonain fluid layer and lower plate of channel is water ...

This paper reviews the fundamentals of micropolar fluid dynamics (MFD), and proposes a numerical scheme integrating Chorin’s projection method and time-centred split method (TCSM) for solving unsteady forms of MFD equations. It has been known that Navier–Stokes equations are incapable of explaining the phenomena at micro and nano scales. On the contrary, MFD can naturally pick up the physical p...

This paper analyzes the peristaltic flow of an incompressible micropolar nanofluid in a tapered asymmetric channel in the presence of thermal radiation and heat sources parameters. The rotation of the nanoparticles is incorporated in the flow model. The equations governing the nanofluid flow are modeled and exact solutions are managed under long wavelength and flow Reynolds number and long wave...
