We present a new hydrodynamic model for the interactions between collision-free Cucker–Smale flocking particles and a viscous incompressible fluid. Our proposed model consists of two hydrodynamic models. For the Cucker–Smale flocking particles, we employ the pressureless Euler system with a non-local flocking dissipation, whereas for the fluid, we use the incompressible Navier–Stokes equations....

manganese zinc ferrite nanoparticles (mzf nps) were synthesized by using a direct, efficient and environmental friendly hydrothermal method. to improve the colloidal stability of mzf nps for biomedical applications, nps were coated with chitosan by ionic gelation technique using sodium tripolyphosphate (tpp) as crosslinker. the synthesized nps were characterized by x ray diffraction (xrd) analy...

abstract: a continuously variable transmission (cvt) is a transmission which may change step less by way of an infinite variety of effective gear ratios between maximum and minimum values. this contrasts with different mechanical transmissions that solely permit just a few different distinct gear ratios to be selected. continuously variable transmissions (cvts) are mechanical devices that allow...

The configuration of a marine propulsion system is selected with regard to the maximum power resulting from its maximum design speed and displacement. The propulsion systems of high speed vessels use three or even four propellers, and each propulsion unit may be multi-engine. High speed vessels are designed for maximum speeds, but their factual exploitation speed parameters are usually consider...

This paper addresses an experimental investigation in the hydrodynamic behavior of a modified slotted sieve tray. Slotted sieve tray (Push valve sieve tray) is a sieve tray that the push valves have been utilized on the tray deck to eliminate liquid gradients and non-uniformity of liquid distribution on the tray. The air-water system was used in an industrial scale experimental rig with an inte...

background and aims: adenovector gene transfer induces inflammatory response that finally leads to vector removal from delivered site. the effect of hydrodynamic pre-injection on adenovector mediated liver inflammation remained elusive. materials and methods: different mice groups were pre-treated by hydrodynamic saline, dexamethasone or nothing prior to adeno-luciferase administration. their s...

The technique of hydrodynamic focusing, used to improve the resolution of the Coulter counter for the sizing of bacteria, was examined. Latex particles of 0.26 mum to 6.7 mum volume were used to examine the characteristics of the system with and without hydrodynamic focusing. The system then was evaluated for sizing mixed bacterial populations as well as single populations. Possible application...

&Vhen the mean free path, I, of fluid particles for Hydrodynamic Cellular Automata is not much smaller than the characteristic length of the system, then hydrodynamic correlations do not have a chance to develop and true hydrodynanuc flow will not be obtained liy studying a simple two dimensional system, it is concluded that the finite size corrections to the permeability, «, for
