The Numerical study of the flow of a fluid in the annular region between two eccentric sphere susing PHP Code isinvestigated. This flow is created by considering the inner sphere to rotate with angular velocity 1  and the outer sphererotate with angular velocity 2  about the axis passing through their centers, the z-axis, using the three dimensionalBispherical coordinates (, ,) .The velocity field of fluid is determined by solving equation of motion using PHP Codeat different cases of angular velocities of inner and outer sphere. Also Finite difference code is used to calculate surfacetractions at outer sphere.

A study is made of a class of singular solutions to the equations of nonlinear elastostatics in which a spherical cavity forms at the centre of a ball of isotropic material placed in tension by means of given surface tractions or displacements. The existence of such solutions depends on the growth properties of the stored-energy function W for large strains and is consistent with strong ellipticity of W . Under appropriate hypotheses it is shown that a singular solution bifurcates from a trivial (homogeneous) solution at a critical value of the surface traction or displacement, at which the trivial solution becomes unstable. For incompressible materials both the singular solution and the critical surface traction are given explicitly, and the stability of all solutions with respect to radial motion is determined. For compressible materials the existence of singular solutions is proved for a class of strongly elliptic materials by means of the direct method of the calculus of variations, an important step in the analysis being to show that the only radial equilibrium solutions without cavities are homogeneous. Work of Gent & Lindley (1958) shows that the critical surface tractions obtained agree with those observed in the internal rupture of rubber.

Measurements of frictional traction in a circular elastohydrodynamic contact have been made over a comprehensive range of conditions. The results suggest the existence of a limiting shear strength in the fluid film and this is shown to be a function of temperature and contact size. Existing theories of fluid behaviour under extreme conditions of stress are considered and some modifications are suggested. The contribution of asperity contact to surface traction is examined.

The stress analysis of multilayered anisotropic media subjected to applied surface tractions is performed within the framework of linear plane elasticity. The solutions are obtained based on the Fourier transform technique together with the aid of the stiffness matrix approach. A general solution procedure is introduced such that it can be uniformly applied to media with transversely isotropic, orthotropic, and monoclinic layers. As an illustrative example, responses of the semi-infinite media composed of unidirectional and angle-ply layers to a given surface traction are presented.
