Unknown Amplitude

This article deals with a problem that describes the propagation of surface waves in a layer of an inhomogeneous fluid. The authors present a mathematical model that describes wave motions on the surface of an ideal exponentially stratified fluid. In the equations and boundary conditions, the transition to dimensionless variables and quantities has been completed. Next, a linear version of the problem follows, the solution of which is in the form of progressive waves of a steady-state form with unknown amplitude coefficients. This type of solution is substituted into the equations and boundary conditions of the linear problem, which makes it possible to reduce the determination of unknown quantities to the problem of solving a system of ordinary differential equations. Solving the system has allowed identifying two areas of physical parameters with different nature of wave motion. Expressions are obtained for the unknown components of the fluid velocity, pressure, free surface shape, and wave frequency. This article contains the analysis of the influence of various parameters of the problem on the wave motion: graphs of the dependence of the phase velocity of the wave on the stratification parameter are constructed for different layer depths and wavelengths. For a better understanding of the nature of wave motion, the expressions for the trajectories of liquid particles are determined. This has required writing the equations of motion of particles using the obtained expressions for the components of the velocity vector; these equations are solved with the method of asymptotic approximations. A graphical analysis of the effect of the stratification parameter value on the particle trajectory shape is carried out. The results have revealed that an increase in stratification leads to a compression of the trajectory in the vertical direction.

Conveying Fluid

In this study, the nonlinear vibration of a curved carbon nanotube conveying fluid is analyzed. The nanotube is assumed to be covered by a piezoelectric layer and the Euler–Bernoulli beam theory is employed to establish the governing equations of motion. The influence of carbon nanotube curvature on structural modeling and fluid velocity vector is considered and the slip boundary conditions of CNT conveying fluid are included. The mathematical modeling of the structure is developed using Hamilton’s principle and then, the Galerkin procedure is employed to discretize the equation of motion. Furthermore, the frequency response of the system is extracted by applying the multiple scales method of perturbation. Finally, a comprehensive study is carried out on the primary resonance and piezoelectric-based parametric resonance of the system. It is shown that consideration of nanotube curvature may lead to an increase in nonlinearity. Implementing the fluid velocity vector in which nanotube curvature is included highly affects the maximum amplitude of the response and should not be ignored. Furthermore, different system parameters have evident impacts on the behavior of the system and therefore, selecting the reasonable geometrical and physical parameters of the system can be very useful to achieve a favorable response.

A viscous electrically conducting fluid is considered and its steady mixed convective flow along a vertical stretching cylinder is investigated. It is assumed that the cylinder is embedded in a porous medium and, external magnetic field, heat source/sink are also taken into account. Suitable similarity transformations are used to reduce the governing equations and associated boundary conditions into a system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations. This system along with the boundary conditions is solved by fourth order Runge-Kutta method with shooting technique. Variations in fluid velocity and temperature due to various physical parameters such as heat source/sink parameter, mixed convection parameter, magnetic parameter are presented through graphs. Effect of these parameters on dimensionless shear stress and rate of heat transfer are discussed numerically through tables.

The circular truss antenna of the large aperture is considered to be a flexible structure which may cause vibration in space and may affect its performance. The frequency analysis of the circular truss antenna is an important problem for understanding its vibration mechanism. In this paper, we investigate the frequency characteristics of a beam–ring structure which is proposed for the first time to model the circular truss antenna in the case of the antenna expended and locked. Based on describing the displacements of the beam–ring system in detail, the kinetic energy and potential energy are calculated. The partial differential governing equations of motion and boundary conditions for the beam–ring structure are derived by Hamilton principle. From the linear parts of the governing equations of motion and the corresponding boundary conditions, the linear frequencies of the beam–ring structure are theoretically obtained. The effects of the physical parameters on the frequency characteristics of the beam–ring structure are studied, which are further verified by the numerical results. The finding phenomena of this paper are helpful for designing and controlling the beam–ring structure such as the circular truss antenna.

Bounding Surfaces

In this paper a statistical theory of turbulence in an incompressible fluid caused by the joint effects of gravity, and thermal instability, is developed. The mathematical theory is based on the equations of continuity and heat conduction and the Boussinesq form of the equations of motion in which the variations of density (resulting from the variations in temperature) are taken into account only in so far as they modify the action of gravity. By restricting oneself to a portion of the fluid far from the bounding surfaces one can treat the turbulence as approximately homogeneous and axisymmetric and use the theory of axisymmetric vectors and tensors recently developed by the writer (Chandrasekhar 1950 a ). A number of correlations between the various field quantities (such as the velocity components, fluctuations in temperature, etc.) at two different points in the medium are defined; and a closed system of equations for the defining scalars are derived for the case when the non-linear terms in the equations of motion and heat conduction can be neglected and a constant mean adverse temperature gradient is maintained. Under stationary conditions when the time derivatives of the various correlations are zero, there is an exact balance between the dissipation of kinetic energy by viscosity and the liberation of potential energy by gravity. A fundamental set of solutions of the equations governing stationary turbulence is obtained; these solutions, varying periodically in the vertical direction, enable a generalized Fourier analysis of the various correlation functions. According to these solutions, a Fourier analysis of correlations such as <MathsOCR> u / || (0) u ' || ( z )</MathsOCR> of the vertical velocities at two points directly above one another and separated by a distance z , cannot include wave-lengths less than a certain minimum value depending on the physical parameters and on the temperature gradient maintained. We may thus speak of a smallest size for the eddies. Further, it appears that the field of turbulence can be analyzed into two modes characterized by the kinetic energy being confined, principally, to the vertical or to the horizontal direction.

The present article addresses the peristaltic flow of a Jeffery fluid over an inclined axisymmetric porous tube with varying viscosity and thermal conductivity. Velocity slip and convective boundary conditions are considered. Resulting governing equations are solved using long wavelength and small Reynolds number approximations. The closed-form solutions are obtained for velocity, streamline, pressure gradient, temperature, pressure rise, and frictional force. The MATLAB numerical simulations are utilized to compute pressure rise and frictional force. The impacts of various physical parameters in the interims for time-averaged flow rate with pressure rise and is examined. The consequences of sinusoidal, multi-sinusoidal, triangular, trapezoidal, and square waveforms on physiological parameters are analyzed and discussed through graphs. The analysis reveals that the presence of variable viscosity helps in controlling the pumping performance of the fluid.

The flow of a liquid through a tube deformed by a piezoelectric cell under a harmonic law is studied in this paper. Linear deformations are compared for the Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions on the contact surface of the tube and piezoelectric element. The flow of fluid through a deformed channel for two flow regimes is investigated: in a tube with one closed end due to deformation of the tube; for a tube with two open ends due to deformation of the tube and the differential pressure applied to the channel. The flow rate of the liquid is calculated as a function of the frequency of the deformations, the pressure drop and the physical parameters of the liquid.

A theoretical model is described of the mean two-dimensional flow of homogeneous charge in a flat-bottomed cylindrical tank with radial baffles and six-blade turbine disc impeller. The model starts from the concept of vorticity transport in the bulk of vortex liquid flow through the mechanism of eddy diffusion characterized by a constant value of turbulent (eddy) viscosity. The result of solution of the equation which is analogous to the Stokes simplification of equations of motion for creeping flow is the description of field of the stream function and of the axial and radial velocity components of mean flow in the whole charge. The results of modelling are compared with the experimental and theoretical data published by different authors, a good qualitative and quantitative agreement being stated. Advantage of the model proposed is a very simple schematization of the system volume necessary to introduce the boundary conditions (only the parts above the impeller plane of symmetry and below it are distinguished), the explicit character of the model with respect to the model parameters (model lucidity, low demands on the capacity of computer), and, in the end, the possibility to modify the given model by changing boundary conditions even for another agitating set-up with radially-axial character of flow.

Most biomaterials and tissues are viscoelastic; thus, evaluating viscoelastic properties is important for numerous biomedical applications. Compressional viscoelastography is an ultrasound imaging technique used for measuring the viscoelastic properties of biomaterials and tissues. It analyzes the creep behavior of a material under an external mechanical compression. The aim of this study is to use finite element analysis to investigate how loading conditions (the distribution of the applied compressional pressure on the surface of the sample) and boundary conditions (the fixation method used to stabilize the sample) can affect the measurement accuracy of compressional viscoelastography. The results show that loading and boundary conditions in computational simulations of compressional viscoelastography can severely affect the measurement accuracy of the viscoelastic properties of materials. The measurement can only be accurate if the compressional pressure is exerted on the entire top surface of the sample, as well as if the bottom of the sample is fixed only along the vertical direction. These findings imply that, in an experimental validation study, the phantom design should take into account that the surface area of the pressure plate must be equal to or larger than that of the top surface of the sample, and the sample should be placed directly on the testing platform without any fixation (such as a sample container). The findings indicate that when applying compressional viscoelastography to real tissues in vivo, consideration should be given to the representative loading and boundary conditions. The findings of the present simulation study will provide a reference for experimental phantom designs regarding loading and boundary conditions, as well as guidance towards validating the experimental results of compressional viscoelastography.

In this study, a numerical approach was adopted in order to explore the analysis of magneto fluid in the presence of thermal radiation combined with mixed convective and slip conditions. Using the similarity transformation, the axisymmetric three-dimensional boundary layer equations were reduced to a self-similar form. The shooting technique, combined with the Range–Kutta–Fehlberg method, was used to solve the resulting coupled nonlinear momentum and heat transfer equations numerically. When physically interpreting the data, some important observations were made. The novelty of the present study lies in finding help to control the rate of heat transfer and fluid velocity in any industrial manufacturing processes (such as the cooling of metallic plates). The numerical results revealed that the Nusselt number decrease for larger Prandtl number, curvature, and convective parameters. At the same time, the skin friction coefficient was enhanced with an increase in both slip velocity and convective parameter. The effect of emerging physical parameters on velocity and temperature profiles for a nonlinear stretching cylinder has been thoroughly studied and analyzed using plotted graphs and tables.

Irregular Solution

Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imaging of ocean waves involves both the geometry and the kinematics of the sea surface. However, the traditional linear wave theory fails to describe steep waves, which are likely to bring about specular reflection of the radar beam, and it may overestimate the surface fluid velocity that causes the so-called velocity bunching effect. Recently, the interest for a Lagrangian description of ocean gravity waves has increased. Such an approach considers the motion of individual labeled fluid particles and the free surface elevation is derived from the surface particles positions. The first order regular solution to the Lagrangian equations of motion for an inviscid and incompressible fluid is the so-called Gerstner wave. It shows realistic features such as sharper crests and broader troughs as the wave steepness increases. This paper proposes a second order irregular solution to these equations. The general features of the first and second order waves are described, and some statistical properties of various surface parameters such as the orbital velocity, slope, and mean curvature are studied.
