This study covers a numerical investigation of gyrotactic microorganisms contained MHD flow over a vertical plate bearing thermal radiation, thermophoresis, Brownian motion, chemical reaction and inclined magnetic field effects. With the assistance of similarity transforms, the derived governed equations are transformed as set of ODEs and solved numerically by R-K and Newton’s methods. Graphs are exhibited and explained for various parameters of interest. For engineering interest, we mainly talked about the Skin friction coefficient, reduced Sherwood, Nusselt numbers and density of motile microorganisms. We noticed a rise in the heat transfer rate of motile microorganisms for rising values of the thermophoresis and Brownian motion parameters. Increasing values of the aligned angle hikes the drag force.

The essence of the present investigation is to reveal the hydrothermal variations of viscoelastic nanofluid flow in a porous medium over a stretchable surface. A higher-order chemical reaction is incorporated with thermophoresis and Brownian motion. Similarity conversions reduce the resulting equations into their dimensionless form and then solved using Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg (RKF) based shooting procedure. The effects of underlying factors on the flow are discussed through various graphs and tables. Computational results for noteworthy skin friction and heat and mass transport are presented and reviewed with sensible judgment. The study reveals that the fluid velocity reduces with incremental values of the viscoelastic parameter [Formula: see text] and magnetic strength. The temperature reduces for the suction parameter with the existence of stretchable but enhances with thermophoresis and Brownian motion effects. Heat transfer rate amplifies for [Formula: see text] but declines for [Formula: see text]. Mass transfer rate increases with the increase in Brownian parameter and Schmidt number. A comparative analysis shows a better agreement with previous results in limiting scenarios.

The induced magnetic field for three-dimensional bio-convective flow of Casson nanofluid containing gyrotactic microorganisms along a vertical stretching sheet is investigated. The movement of these microorganisms cause bioconvection and they act as bio-active mixers that help in stabilising the nanoparticles in the suspension. The two forces, Thermophoresis and Brownian motion are incorporated in the Mathematical model along with Stefan blowing. The resulting model is transformed to ordinary differential equations using similarity transformations and are solved using [Formula: see text] method. The Velocity, Induced Magnetic field, Temperature, Concentration of Nanoparticles, and Motile density profiles are interpreted graphically. It is observed that the Casson parameter decreases the flow velocity and enhances the temperature, concentration, and motile density profiles and also it is noticed that the blowing enhances the nanofluid profiles whereas, suction diminishes the nanofluid profiles. On the other hand, it is perceived that the rate of heat conduction is enhanced with Thermophoresis and Brownian motion.

AbstractWe show that geodesic random walks on a complete Finsler manifold of bounded geometry converge to a diffusion process which is, up to a drift, the Brownian motion corresponding to a Riemannian metric.
