mhd boundary layer flow of two phase model nanofluid over a vertical plate is investigated both analytically and numerically. a system of governing nonlinear partial differential equations is converted into a set of nonlinear ordinary differential equations by suitable similarity transformations and then solved analytically using homotopy analysis method and numerically by the fourth order rung...

For the GI0GI01 queue we show that the scaled queue size converges to reflected Brownian motion in a critical queue and converges to reflected Brownian motion with drift for a sequence of subcritical queuing models that approach a critical model+ Instead of invoking the topological argument of the usual continuousmapping approach, we give a probabilistic argument using Skorokhod embeddings in B...

the effect of a transverse magnetic field on the boundary layer flow and heat transfer of anisothermal stretching cylinder is analyzed. the governing partial differential equations for themagnetohydrodynamic, temperature, and concentration boundary layers are transformed into a setof ordinary differential equations using similarity transformations. the obtained ordinarydifferential equations ar...

the falling and settling of solid particles in gases and liquids is a natural phenomenon happens in many industrial processes. this phenomenon has altered pure forced convection to a combination of heat conduction and heat convection in a flow over a plate. in this paper, the coupling of conduction (inside the plate) and forced convection of a non-homogeneous nanofluid flow (over a flat plate) ...

 In this paper the effect of using various models for conductivity and viscosity considering Brownian motion of nanoparticles is investigated. This study is numerically conducted inside a cavity full of Water-Al2O3 nanofluid at the case of mixed convection heat transfer. The effect of some parameters such as the nanoparticle volume fraction, Rayleigh, Richardson and Reynolds numbers has been ex...

It has been demonstrated that Brownian models are effective for approximate analysis of queueing networks, particularly when no explicit analytical methods are available [3,4,1]. In 1988 Harrison [2] proposed Brownian models as approximations for multiclass open queueing networks. That work was expanded by Harrison and Nguyen in two recent papers [3,4] with the aim of developing a systematic me...

trans-Translation is a ribosome-rescue system that is ubiquitous in bacteria. Small molecules defining a new family of oxadiazole compounds that inhibit trans-translation have been found to have broad-spectrum antibiotic activity. We sought to determine the activity of KKL-35, a potent member of the oxadiazole family, against the human pathogen Legionella pneumophila and other related species t...

the problem of steady magnetohydrodynamic boundary layer flow of an electrically conducting nanofluid due to an exponentially permeable stretching sheet with heat source/sink in presence of thermal radiation is numerically investigated. the effect of transverse brownian motion and thermophoresis on heat transfer and nano particle volume fraction considered. the governing partial differential eq...
