In this study, nonlocal nonlinear instability and the vibration of a double carbon nanotube (CNT) system have been investigated. The Visco-Pasternak model is used to simulate the elastic medium between nanotubes, on which the effect of the spring, shear and damping of the elastic medium is considered. Both of the CNTs convey a viscose fluid and a uniform longitudinal magnetic field is applied t...

An analysis of mixed convective MHD visco-elastic flow with heat and mass transfer from a vertical plate in presence of ohmic heating and viscous dissipation has been presented. The governing equations of the momentum, thermal and concentration fields are solved by perturbation technique. Expressions for velocity, temperature, concentration profiles and non-dimensional skin-friction coefficient...

Commonly used polymer-based scaffolds often lack visco-elastic properties to serve as a replacement for cartilage tissue. This study explores the effect of reinforcement of silk matrix with chitosan microparticles to create a visco-elastic matrix that could support the redifferentiation of expanded chondrocytes. Goat chondrocytes produced collagen type II and glycosaminoglycan (GAG)-enriched ma...

For description of the visco-elastic behavior of soft biological tissues, Fung proposed a visco-elastic model formulated in terms of a relaxation function and corresponding relaxation spectrum. For the corresponding creep function, Fung proposed an expression which needs correction to obtain a consistent formulation. This creep function and the corresponding creep spectrum are derived in this n...

Various models of tumor growth are available in the litterature. A first class describes the evolution of the cell number density when considered as a continuous visco-elastic material with growth. A second class, describes the tumor as a set and rules for the free boundary are given related to the classical Hele-Shaw model of fluid dynamics. Following the lines of previous papers where the mat...

for dynamic analyses of railway track structures, the algorithm of solution is very important. for estimating the important problems in the railway tracks such as the effects of rail joints, rail supports, rail modeling in the nearness of bridge and other problems, the models of the axially beam model on the elastic foundation can be utilized. for studying the effects of axially beam on the ela...

Correction manoeuvres are as important as the other issues such as hardware selection, graft options, fusion and osteotomy techniques in the surgical treatment of spinal deformities.The property of materials demonstrating both viscous and elastic characteristics when undergoing deformation is called visco-elasticity. Purely elastic materials change in shape with a stress, and go back to their i...

The study of boundary layer flow and heat transfer of an electrically conducting visco-elastic second grade fluid in a porous medium past a stretching sheet is conducting with power law surface temperature or power law surface heat flux. The flow in boundary layer is considered to be generated solely by the linear stretching of the boundary sheet adjacent to porous medium in a magnetic field wi...

A primary atomization model for visco-elastic liquid is established based on the ligament formation assumption and dispersion relationships. Two linear instability analyses are used in presented paper. Both of them are involved in the primary atomization model and the calculated results are compared with published experimental data. After validation, the model is used to predict the effects of ...

In this study, the vibration behavior of circular and annular graphene sheet embedded in a Visco-Pasternak foundation and coupled with temperature change and under in-plane pre-load is studied. The single-layered annular graphene sheet is coupled by an enclosing viscoelastic medium which is simulated as a Visco- Pasternak foundation. By using the nonlocal elasticity theory and classical plate t...
