Abstract Convective flow is a self-sustained flow with the effect of the temperature gradient. The density is non-uniform due to the variation of temperature. The effect of the magnetic flux plays a major role in convective flow. The process of heat transfer is accompanied by a mass transfer process; for instance, condensation, evaporation, and chemical process. Due to the applications of the heat and mass transfer combined effects in a different field, the main aim of this paper is to do a comprehensive analysis of heat and mass transfer of MHD unsteady second-grade fluid in the presence of ramped boundary conditions… More >

Abstract

In this paper, the equal-norm multiple-scale Trefftz method combined with the implicit Lie-group scheme is applied to solve the two-dimensional nonlinear sloshing problem with baffles. When considering solving sloshing problems with baffles by using boundary integral methods, degenerate geometry and problems of numerical instability are inevitable. To avoid numerical instability, the multiple-scale characteristic lengths are introduced into T-complete basis functions to efficiently govern the high-order oscillation disturbance. Again, the numerical noise propagation at each time step is eliminated by the vector regularization method and the group-preserving scheme. A weighting factor of the group-preserving scheme is introduced into a linear system… More >

Abstract This study proposes a method for identifying viscoelastic properties that considers time- and temperature dependence of Poisson's ratio using inverse analysis. In this method, displacement distribution, which are input values of inverse analysis, is measured by digital image correlation [1], and unknown material properties are determined using the virtual fields method [2]. This method targets plane stress condition and the Poisson's ratio of the viscoelastic body depends on the time and temperature [3]. This study focuses on the correspondence law and proposes a method for calculating stresses considering time- and temperature dependence of Poisson's ratio. In-plane strains are measured and… More >

Abstract In this research, we propose a new change in classical epidemic models by including the change in the rate of death in the overall population. The existing models like Susceptible-Infected-Recovered (SIR) and Susceptible-Infected-Recovered-Susceptible (SIRS) include the death rate as one of the parameters to estimate the change in susceptible, infected and recovered populations. Actually, because of the deficiencies in immunity, even the ordinary flu could cause death. If people’s disease resistance is strong, then serious diseases may not result in mortalities. The classical model always assumes a closed system where there is no new birth or death, no immigration or… More >

Abstract The present article aims to examine the heat and mass distribution in a free convection flow of electrically conducted, generalized Jeffrey nanofluid in a heated rotatory system. The flow analysis is considered in the presence of thermal radiation and the transverse magnetic field of strength B₀. The medium is porous accepting generalized Darcy’s law. The motion of the fluid is due to the cosine oscillations of the plate. Nanofluid has been formed by the uniform dispersing of the Silver nanoparticles in regular engine oil. The problem has been modeled in the form of classical partial differential equations and then generalized… More >

Abstract It is a very difficult task for the researchers to find the exact solutions to mathematical problems that contain non-linear terms in the equation. Therefore, this article aims to investigate the viscous dissipation (VD) effect on the fractional model of Jeffrey fluid over a heated vertical flat plate that suddenly moves in its own plane. Based on the Atangana-Baleanu operator, the fractional model is developed from the fractional constitutive equations. VD is responsible for the non-linear behavior in the problem. Upon taking the Laplace and Fourier sine transforms, exact expressions have been obtained for momentum and energy equations. The influence… More >

Abstract This paper focuses on the development of a multi-objective lot size–reorder point backorder inventory model for a slow moving item. The three objectives are the minimization of (1) the total annual relevant cost, (2) the expected number of stocked out units incurred annually and (3) the expected frequency of stockout occasions annually. Laplace distribution is used to model the variability of lead time demand. The multi-objective Cuckoo Search (MOCS) algorithm is proposed to solve the model. Pareto curves are generated between cost and service levels for decision-makers. A numerical problem is considered on a slow moving item to illustrate the… More >

Abstract In this paper, a solution of a two-dimensional (2D) Stokes flow problem, subject to Dirichlet and fluid traction boundary conditions, is developed based on the Non-singular Method of Fundamental Solutions (NMFS). The Stokes equation is decomposed into three coupled Laplace equations for modified components of velocity, and pressure. The solution is based on the collocation of boundary conditions at the physical boundary by the fundamental solution of Laplace equation. The singularities are removed by smoothing over on disks around them. The derivatives on the boundary in the singular points are calculated through simple reference solutions. In NMFS no artificial boundary… More >

Abstract In this paper, transient crack analysis in two-dimensional, isotropic, continuously non-homo -ge -neous and linear elastic functionally graded materials is presented. A boundary-domain element method based on boundary-domain integral representations is developed. The Laplace-transform technique is utilized to eliminate the dependence on time. Laplace-transformed fundamental solutions of linear coupled thermoelasticity for isotropic, homogeneous and linear elastic solids are applied to derive boundary-domain integral equations. The numerical implementation is performed by using a collocation method for the spatial discretization. The time-dependent numerical solutions are obtained by the Stehfest's inversion algorithm.
