An analytical model is developed to study the viscoelastic micropolar fluid convection from an inclined plate as a simulation of electro-conductive polymer materials processing with nonlinear temperature. Jeffery’s viscoelastic model is deployed to describe the non-Newtonian characteristics of the fluid and provides a good approximation for polymers. Micro-structural is one of the characteristi...

Abstract We study the existence of weak solutions to a Newtonian fluid?non-Newtonian fluid mixed-type equation $$ {u_{t}}= \operatorname{div} \bigl(b(x,t){ \bigl\vert {\nabla A(u)} \bigr\vert ^{p(x) - 2}}\nabla A(u)+\alpha (x,t)\nabla A(u) \bigr)+f(u,x,t). u t = <m...

in this paper, the ritz-galerkin method in bernstein polynomial basis is applied for solving the nonlinear problem of the magnetohydrodynamic (mhd) flow of third grade fluid between the two plates. the properties of the bernstein  polynomials together with the ritz-galerkin method are used to reduce the solution of the mhd couette flow of non-newtonian fluid in a porous medium to the solution o...

The objective of this chapter is to introduce and to illustrate the frequent and wide occurrence of non-Newtonian fluid behaviour in a diverse range of applications, both in nature and in technology. Starting with the definition of a nonNewtonian fluid, different types of non-Newtonian characteristics are briefly described. Representative examples of materials (foams, suspensions, polymer solut...

The steady flow arising due to the rotation of a non-Newtonian fluid at a larger distance from a stationary disk is extended to the case where the disk surface admits partial slip. The constitutive equation of the non-Newtonian fluid is modeled by that for a Reiner-Rivlin fluid. The momentum equation gives rise to a highly nonlinear boundary value problem. Numerical solution of the governing no...

in this paper, static performance characteristics for a finite lenght two-lobe journal bearing lubricated with micropolar fluid is studied. using finite element method, steady-state film pressure is obtained by solving modified reynolds equation, based on micropolar lubrication theory. with the help of film pressure in bearing, the static performance characteristics in terms of load carrying ca...

an attempt is made for the first time to solve the quadratic and cubic model of magneto hydrodynamic poiseuille flow of phan-thein-tanner (ptt). series solution of magneto hydrodynamic (mhd) flow is developed by using homotopy perturbation method (hpm). results are presented graphically and the effects of non-dimensional parameters on the flow field are analyzed. the results obtained reveals ma...

In the present study, the nonlinear model of non-Newtonian blood flow in cosine-shape stenosed elastic artery is numerically examined. The model is carried out for axisymmetric, two-dimensional and fully developed blood flow. The vessel wall is assumed to be have time-dependent radius that is important factor for study of blood flow. The cosine-shape stenosis convert to rigid artery by using a ...
