a foodstuff response evaluating at different forces such as shear, compress, tensile and chewing force is in fact product texture evaluating which is relying on rheological characteristic. in this research, the relaxation behavior of various chicken parts was perused based on generalized maxwell model at different regimes. the effects of three types of treatments as control (without additives),...

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...

In recent years there have been tremendous advances in the theoretical understanding of boundary integral equations for Maxwell problems. In particular, stable dual pairings of discretisation spaces have been developed that allow robust formulations of the preconditioned electric field, magnetic field and combined field integral equations. Within the BEM++ boundary element library we have devel...

In this study, the modeling of hydrogen production process in microreactors by methanol-steam reforming reaction is investigated. The catalytic reaction of methanol-steam reforming producing hydrogen is simulated considering a 3D geometry for the microreactor. To calculate diffusion among species, mixture average correlations are compared to Stephan-Maxwell equations. The reactions occurring in...

We have developed open-source finite-element software for 2-D and 3-D dynamic and quasi-static modeling of crustal deformation. This software, PyLith 1.0, combines the quasi-static modeling functionality of PyLith 0.8 and its predecessors (LithoMop and Tecton) and the dynamic modeling functionality of EqSim. The target applications contain spatial scales ranging from tens of meters to hundreds ...

Linear stability of double diffusive convection of Darcy-Maxwell fluid with Soret and Dufour effects is investigated. The effects of the Soret and Dufour numbers, Lewis number, relaxation time and solutal Darcy Rayleigh number on the stationary and oscillatory convection are presented graphically. The Dufour number enhances the stability of Darcy-Maxwell fluid for stationary convection while it...

The governing equations of three dimensional elasticity problems include the six Beltrami-Michell stress compatibility equations, the three differential equations of equilibrium, and the six material constitutive relations; and these are usually solved subject to the boundary conditions. The system of fifteen differential equations is usually difficult to solve, and simplified methods are usual...

to evaluate the effect of replacing the almond meal on viscoelastic properties of rice cake, stress relaxation test was carried out. stress relaxation test were conducted using a texture analyzer machine. constants of the peleg - normand and the extended maxwell model for variables were calculated. the results showed that with increasing strain rate increased amount of k1, k2 and decay forces, ...

This study evaluated the performance of the Maxwell 16 System (Promega) for extraction of influenza virus (flu-v) RNA from diverse samples compared to a classical manual method (QIAamp Kit, QIAGEN). Following extraction by the two methods, all samples were analyzed by Real-time RT-PCR. Results revealed that the use of the standard Maxwell 16 protocol (Maxwell 16-S) resulted in good linearity an...
