The flow of a viscous, incompressible fluid between two eccentric rotating porous cylinders with suction/injection at both the cylinders, for very small clearance ratio is studied. The expressions for various flow characteristics are obtained using perturbation analysis. Streamlines and pressure plots are shown graphically for various values of flow parameters and discussed. 2000 Mathematics Su...

In the present paper, time dependent creep behavior of hollow circular rotating cylinders made of exponentially graded material (EGM) is investigated. Loading is composed of an internal pressure, a distributed temperature field due to steady state heat conduction with convective boundary condition and a centrifugal body force. All the material properties are assumed to be exponentially graded a...

We present an experimental study of the saturated non-linear dynamics inertial wave attractor in axisymmetric geometrical setting. The experiments are carried out a rotating ring-shaped fluid domain delimited by two vertical coaxial cylinders, conical bottom, and horizontal deformable upper lid as generator: meridional cross-section volume is trapezium, while ring. First, set into rigid-body ro...

We did an experimental study on Taylor-Couette flow in between two coaxial cylinders of length L = 220 mm and radii r i = 110 and r o = 120, respectively, the fluid-filled 'Taylor-Couette gap' or TC-gap being h = 10 mm, thus gap ratio η = r i /r o = 0.917, and gap aspect ratio L/h = 22). Both cylinders are rotating independently, with angular frequencies ω i,o , The torque T on the inner cylind...
