fluid properties with constant improvement in efficiency have been noticeable as important criteria in drilling operation. the main drilling fluid properties highly depend on utilization of new polymers with high efficiency in drilling fluid composition. in this paper, the performance of a new polymer, called partially hydrolyzed polyacrylamide polymer (phpa), is studied which has recently ente...

free surface sloshing of liquid in a rectangular tank induced by lateral excitation has been studied numericallyand experimentally in this paper. the numerical simulation is carried out based on the volume of fluid (vof) method that provides free surface extraction in such problem. a tank with transparent walls is used to free surface tracking in experimental study while the movement amplitude ...

many diseases are related to cerebrospinal .uid (csf) hydrodynamics. therefore, understanding the hydrodynamics of csf .ow and intracranial pressure is helpful for obtaining deeper knowledge of pathological processes and providing better treatments. furthermore, engineering a reliable computational method is promising approach for fabricating in vitro models which is essential for inventing gen...

Abstract We propose paradigmatic examples to show how material damage phenomena can be efficiently described as a solid-solid phase transition. Starting from the pioneering work of J.L. Ericksen (J. Elast. 5(3):191–201, 1975) and extensions R.L. Fosdick other authors three-dimensional non linear elasticity, we describe insurgence hard → soft transition between two states (damage undamaged) char...

Unsteady oscillatory flow of generalized Burgers’ fluid in a circular channel tube in the porous medium is investigated under the influence of time-dependent trapezoidal pressure gradient given by an infinite Fourier series. An exact analytical expression for the solution for the fluid velocity and the shear stress are recovered by using the similarity arguments together with the integral trans...

water soluble amphoteric graft copolymers of polysaccharide were synthesized via grafting of cationic monomer onto the sodium carboxymethylcellulose ()cmc)( and then used as a shale stabilizer in the water-based drilling fluids. accordingly, five types of cmc-graft copolymers with different ratios of acrylamide am)( and diallyldimethylammonium chloride dadmac)( were synthesized. grafting of mon...
