In this paper, we construct transient electro-osmotic flow of Burgers’ fluid with Caputo fractional derivative in a micro-channel, where the Poisson–Boltzmann equation described the potential electric field applied along the length of the microchannel. The analytical solution for the component of the velocity profile was obtained, first by applying the Laplace transform combined with the classical method of partial differential equations and, second by applying Laplace transform combined with the finite Fourier sine transform. The exact solution for the component of the temperature was obtained by applying Laplace transform and finite Fourier sine transform. Further, due to the complexity of the derived models of the governing equations for both velocity and temperature, the inverse Laplace transform was obtained with the aid of numerical inversion formula based on Stehfest's algorithms with the help of MATHCAD software. The graphical representations showing the effects of the time, retardation time, electro-kinetic width, and fractional parameters on the velocity of the fluid flow and the effects of time and fractional parameters on the temperature distribution in the micro-channel were presented and analyzed. The results show that the applied electric field, electro-osmotic force, electro-kinetic width, and relaxation time play a vital role on the velocity distribution in the micro-channel. The fractional parameters can be used to regulate both the velocity and temperature in the micro-channel. The study could be used in the design of various biomedical lab-on-chip devices, which could be useful for biomedical diagnosis and analysis.

AbstractOne of the unresolved issues in physiology is how exactly myosin moves in a filament as the smallest responsible organ for contracting of a natural muscle. In this research, inspired by nature, a model is presented consisting of DPD (dissipative particle dynamics) particles driven by electro-osmotic flow (EOF) in micro channel that a thin movable impermeable polymer membrane has been attached across channel width, thus momentum of fluid can directly transfer to myosin stem. At the first, by validation of electro-osmotic flow in micro channel in different conditions with accuracy of less than 10 percentage error compared to analytical results, the DPD results have been developed to displacement of an impermeable polymer membrane in EOF. It has been shown that by the presence of electric field of 250 V/m and Zeta potential − 25 mV and the dimensionless ratio of the channel width to the thickness of the electric double layer or kH = 8, about 15% displacement in 8 s time will be obtained compared to channel width. The influential parameters on the displacement of the polymer membrane from DPD particles in EOF such as changes in electric field, ion concentration, zeta potential effect, polymer material and the amount of membrane elasticity have been investigated which in each cases, the radius of gyration and auto correlation velocity of different polymer membrane cases have been compared together. This simulation method in addition of probably helping understand natural myosin displacement mechanism, can be extended to design the contraction of an artificial muscle tissue close to nature.

In 2007, the author published some results on n-dimensional Laplace transform involved with the Fourier sine transform. In this paper, we propose some new result in n-dimensional Laplace transforms involved with Fourier cosine transform; these results provide few algorithms for evaluating some n-dimensional Laplace transform pairs. In addition, some examples are also presented, which explain the useful applications of the obtained results. Therefore, one can produce some two- and three- as well as n-dimensional Laplace transforms pairs.

AbstractThe differential migration of ions in an applied electric field is the basis for the separation of chemical species by capillary electrophoresis. Axial diffusion of the concentration peak limits the separation efficiency. Electromigration dispersion is observed when the concentration of sample ions is comparable to that of the background ions. Under such conditions, the local electrical conductivity is significantly altered in the sample zone making the electric field, and, therefore, the ion migration velocity, concentration dependent. The resulting nonlinear wave exhibits shock-like features and, under certain simplifying assumptions, is described by Burgers’ equation (Ghosal & Chen Bull. Math. Biol., vol. 72, 2010, p. 2047). In this paper, we consider the more general situation where the walls of the separation channel may have a non-zero zeta potential and are therefore able to sustain an electro-osmotic bulk flow. The main result is a one-dimensional nonlinear advection diffusion equation for the area averaged concentration. This homogenized equation accounts for the Taylor–Aris dispersion resulting from the variation in the electro-osmotic slip velocity along the wall. It is shown that in a certain range of parameters, the electro-osmotic flow can actually reduce the total dispersion by delaying the formation of a concentration shock. However, if the electro-osmotic flow is sufficiently high, the total dispersion is increased because of the Taylor–Aris contribution.

We construct suitable Boehmian spaces which are properly larger than [Formula: see text] and we extend the Fourier sine transform and the Fourier cosine transform more than one way. We prove that the extended Fourier sine and cosine transforms have expected properties like linear, continuous, one-to-one and onto from one Boehmian space onto another Boehmian space. We also establish that the well known connection among the Fourier transform, Fourier sine transform and Fourier cosine transform in the context of Boehmians. Finally, we compare the relations among the different Boehmian spaces discussed in this paper.

This is a compilation of definite integrals of the product of the hyperbolic cosecant function and polynomial raised to a general power. In this work, we used our contour integral method to derive a Fourier sine transform in terms of the Lerch function. Almost all Lerch functions have an asymmetrical zero-distribution. A summary table of the results are produced for easy reading. A vast majority of the results are new.
