Heat And Mass Transfer Effects Of Peristaltic Transport Of A Nano Fluid In Peripheral Layer, K. M. Prasad, N. Subadra, M, A. S. Srinivas Dec 2017

Heat And Mass Transfer Effects Of Peristaltic Transport Of A Nano Fluid In Peripheral Layer, K. M. Prasad, N. Subadra, M, A. S. Srinivas

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

This paper deals with a theoretical investigation of heat and mass transfer effects of peristaltic transport of a nanofluid in peripheral layer. By using appropriate methods, the velocity in the core region as well as in the peripheral region, pressure drop, time averaged flux, frictional force, temperature profile, nanoparticle phenomenon, heat transfer coefficient and mass transfer coefficient of the fluid are investigated, using lubrication theory. Effects of different physical parameters like viscosity ratio, mean radius of the central layer, Brownian motion parameter, thermophoresis parameter, local temperature Grashof number as well as local nanoparticle Grashof number on pressure rise characteristics, frictional …


Hematocrit Level On Blood Flow Through A Stenosed Artery With Permeable Wall: A Theoretical Study, A. Malek, A. Hoque Jun 2017

Hematocrit Level On Blood Flow Through A Stenosed Artery With Permeable Wall: A Theoretical Study, A. Malek, A. Hoque

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

The paper deals with the hematocrit level on resistance of flow, wall shear stress in a stenosed artery of permeable wall. In the paper we have developed and solved some theoretical formulas based on stenosis and hematocrit effects. The results highlight that the resistance of flow increases for increasing of stenosis height where the hematocrit level (35%-45%) has significant effects. Moreover, the effects of slip parameter and Darcy number due to permeability of the wall on resistance of flow have been investigated. The effects of hematocrit level, slip parameter and Darcy number have been focused on wall shear stress of …


Bifurcation And Stability Of Prey-Predator Model With Beddington-Deangelis Functional Response, Moulipriya Sarkar, Tapasi Das, R. N. Mukherjee Jun 2017

Bifurcation And Stability Of Prey-Predator Model With Beddington-Deangelis Functional Response, Moulipriya Sarkar, Tapasi Das, R. N. Mukherjee

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In this paper we discuss the harvesting of the prey species making a fraction of them to be accessed by the predator while both the prey and predator are being subjected to Beddington-DeAngelis functional response. It is observed that a Hopf-bifurcation may occur around the interior equilibrium taking the environmental carrying capacity of the prey species as the parameter. Some numerical examples and the corresponding curves are studied using Maple to explain the results of the proposed model.


Two-Dimensional Model Of Nanoparticle Deposition In The Alveolar Ducts Of The Human Lung, Anju Saini, V. K. Katiyar, Pratibha Pratibha Jun 2017

Two-Dimensional Model Of Nanoparticle Deposition In The Alveolar Ducts Of The Human Lung, Anju Saini, V. K. Katiyar, Pratibha Pratibha

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In this paper a mathematical model for nanoparticle deposition in the alveolar ducts of the human lung airways is proposed. There were huge inconsistencies in deposition between ducts of a particular generation and inside every alveolated duct, signifying that limited particle concentrations can be much bigger than the mean acinar concentration. A large number of particles are unsuccessful to way out the structure during expiration. Finite difference method has been used to solve the unsteady nonlinear Navier–Stokes equations in cylindrical coordinate system governing flow assuming axial symmetry under laminar flow condition so that the problem efficiently turns into two-dimensional.
