After remarking on non-equilibrium thermodynamics with internal variables, this paper highlights the importance of these variables to the study of biological systems. Internal variables can provide a more detailed description of biological processes that occur inside cells, tissues and organs. In order to introduce a fractional model on a visco-inelastic medium based on Kluitenberg’s non-equili...

The generalized dynamical theory of thermo-elasticity proposed by Green and Lindsay is applied to study the propagation of harmonically time-dependent thermo-viscoelastic plane waves of assigned frequency in an infinite visco-elastic solid of Kelvin-Voigt type, when the entire medium rotates with a uniform angular velocity. A more general dispersion equation is deduced to determine the effects ...

In this article, electro-thermo nonlocal nonlinear vibration and instability of viscous-fluid-conveying double–walled boron nitride nanotubes (DWBNNTs) embedded on Pasternak foundation are investigated. The DWBNNT is simulated as a Timoshenko beam (TB) which includes rotary inertia and transverse shear deformation in the formulation. Considering electro-mechanical coupling, the nonlinear govern...

In this paper, the influence of the elastic foundation on the free vibration and buckling of thin-walled piezoelectric-based functionally graded materials (FGM) cylindrical shells under combined loadings is investigated. The equations of motion are obtained by using the principle of Hamilton and Maxwell's equations and the Navier's type solution used to solve these equations. Material propertie...

Present paper is concerned with the oscillatory motion of visco-elastic [Oldroyd (1958) model] liquid through porous medium and annular space between two right circular cylinders perpendicular to flow when both execute simple harmonic along central axis cylinders. The amplitudes frequencies have been taken different for particular cases also discussed in detail. Thevelocity effected by medium.

In the present paper behavior of free convective boundary layer flow an electrically con-ducting visco-elastic,incompressible fluid through a porous medium over continuously moving surface in presence uniform magnetic field with constant suction is studied. A assumed to be applied perpendicularly surface. similarity transformation used which reduces partial differential equation ordinary equati...

An analysis of radiation and soret effect on visco-elastic mhd oscillatory flow with heat and mass transfer through a porous medium bounded by two infinite horizontal parallel porous plates in presence of chemical reaction and a heat source has been presented when one plate is kept at rest while the other is oscillating in its own plane. The fluid is considered to be non-Newtonian characterized...

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...

The aim of the present paper is to investigate the surface waves in a non-homogeneous, isotropic, visco-elastic solid medium of nth order including time rate of strain. The theory of generalized surface waves has firstly been developed and then it has been employed to investigate particular cases of waves, viz., Stonely and Rayleigh, Love type. The wave velocity equations have been obtained for...
