at the first step cufe2o4 nanoparticles were synthesized by a fast and facile microwave method. the obtained nanoparticles and modified carbon nano tubes were added to poly styrene matrix. the products were characterized through fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, x-ray diffraction, and scanning electron microscopy. vibrating sample magnetometer shows nanoparticles exhibit ferromagnetic be...

in this paper, stress and displacement fields of functionally graded (fg) nanocomposite cylinders reinforced by carbon nanotubes (cnts) subjected to internal pressure and in thermal environment are investigated by finite element method. the nanocomposite cylinders are combinations of single-walled carbon nanotubes (swcnts) and isotropic matrix. material properties are estimated by a micro mecha...

from building design point of view a basic aim of low energy architecture is to create a thermally comfortable internal environment for building occupants whilst consuming the least possible amount of energy. thus, thermal comfort study has an important impact on energy saving. achieving comfort conditions requires an understanding of the interaction between three groups of factors, namely phys...

An axisymmetric MHD model is examined analytically to illustrate some key aspects of the physics of hot and magnetized outflows which originate in the near environment of a central gravitating body. By analyzing the asymptotical behaviour of the outflows it is found that they attain a variety of shapes such as conical, paraboloidal or cylindrical. However, non cylindrical asymptotics can be ach...

The aim of this paper is to investigate the effect of the variable thermal conductivity and the inclined uniform magnetic field on the plane Poiseuille flow of viscous incompressible electrically conducting fluid between two porous plates Joule heating in the presence of a constant pressure gradient through non-uniform plate temperature. It is assumed that the fluid injection occurs at lower pl...

   The present article describes the effects of thermal radiation and heat source/sink parameters on the mixed convective magnetohydrodynamic flow of a Casson nanofluid with zero normal flux of nanoparticles over an exponentially stretching sheet along with convective boundary condition. The governing nonlinear system of partial differential equations along with boundary conditions...

In this work the effects of heat generation on the modes of Yb:Glass double clad fiber laser were investigated. The thermal dispersion and thermally-induced birefringence were considered when the gain medium becomes an anisotropic medium. The results showed considerable modifications of laser modes profiles, in particular for transfer magnetic (TM) and transfer electric (TE) modes which their p...

Aberration correctors correct aberrations, not instabilities. Rather, as spatial resolution improves, a microscope's sensitivity to room environment becomes more noticeable, not less. Room design is now an essential part of the microscope installation process. Previously ignorable annoyances like computer fans, desk lamps and that chiller in the service corridor now may become the limiting fact...
