Purpose The purpose of this paper is to study the deterministic elastic buckling behavior of cylindrical fiber–metal laminate panels subjected to uniaxial compressive loading and the investigation of GLAss fiber-REinforced aluminum laminate (GLARE) panels using probabilistic finite element method (FEM) analysis. Design/methodology/approach The FEM in combination with the eigenvalue buckling analysis is used for the construction of buckling coefficient–curvature parameter diagrams of seven fiber–metal laminate grades, three glass-fiber composites and monolithic 2024-T3 aluminum. The influences of uncertainties concerning material properties and laminate dimensions on the buckling load are studied with sensitivity analyses. Findings It is found that aluminum has a stronger impact on the buckling behavior of the fiber–metal laminate panels than their constituent uni-directional or woven composites. For the classical simply supported boundary conditions, it is found that there is an approximately linear relation between the buckling coefficient and the curvature parameter when the diagrams are plotted in double logarithmic scale. The probabilistic calculations demonstrate that there is a considerable probability to overestimate the buckling load of GLARE panels with deterministic calculations. Originality/value In this study, the deterministic and probabilistic buckling response of fiber metal laminate panels is investigated. It is shown that realistic structural uncertainties could substantially affect the buckling strength of aerospace components.

The main purpose of this research is to scrutinize the heat and mass transfer in the Casson hybrid nanofluid flow over an extending cylinder in the presence of a magnetic dipole and double stratification. The nanofluid contained chemically reactive hybrid nanoparticles (Ag, MgO) in the conventional fluids (water). The effects of viscous dissipation, radiation, and concentration stratification were taken into consideration. In the presence of gyrotactic microorganisms and the Non-Ficks Model, the flow was induced. Incorporating microorganisms into a hybrid nanofluid flow is thought to help stabilize the dispersed nanoparticles. For viscosity and thermal conductivity, experimental relations with related dependence on nanoparticle concentration were used. To acquire the nonlinear model from the boundary layer set of equations, suitable similarity transformations were employed. The built-in function bvp4c of Matlab software was utilized to solve the transformed equation numerically. The graphical results were obtained for temperature, velocity, concentration, and microorganism distribution for various parameters. The numerical amounts of drag friction, heat transport rate, and motile density number for different parameters are presented through tables. It is seen that the fluid velocity is augmented by the increase of the curvature parameter, while a decrease occurs in the fluid velocity with an increase in the magnetic and slips parameters. The comparison of the present study with previously available studies is discussed, which shows a good agreement with published results.

Laminar boundary-layer separation phenomenon is one of the interesting and important aspects of boundary-layer flows. It occurs in various physical situations because of decreasing wall shear stress. Retarded flow velocities are one of the reasons to happen this event. Flow separation can be prevented or delayed by utilizing bodies of revolution as surface transverse curvature produces the effects of the nature of favorable pressure-gradient which in turn increases wall shear stress that keeps the flow attached to the surface. Bodies of revolution whose body contour follows power-law form also play a vital role to delay flow separation. Bodies of revolution of varying cross-sections and involving surface transverse curvature (TVC) are utilized to examine their effects on flow separation. Particularly, a convex transverse curvature has been considered due to its effects of the nature of favorable pressure-gradient which causes to delay the flow separation. A retarded flow velocity of Görtler’s type is considered in this study to investigate flow separation process. A detailed analysis is provided to understand the flow separation by calculating separation points under various assumptions. It has been observed that the body contours exponent n and the convex transverse curvature parameter k play an assistive role in the delaying of boundary-layer separation even under the influence of strong retardation. Results are presented through various Tables and graphs in order to highlight the role of the power-law exponent of external velocity m, the convex transverse curvature parameter k, and the body contours exponent n on separation points.

In this investigation, we have analyzed the peristaltic movement of MHD Carreau nanofluids in a curved channel by taking the thermophoresis and Brownian motion effects into account. The governing equations of the fluid flow like the equations of continuity, momentum, temperature and concentration are modulated and abridged by using the theory of lubrication approximations. A regular perturbation is used to solve the simplified coupled nonlinear differential equations. The changes of various fluid parameters on axial velocity, temperature and concentrations are carefully calculated, and the graphical results are analyzed. According to the result of this study, it is determined that the resulting velocity of nanofluid decreases significantly when the applied radial magnetic field is strengthened. In addition, the curvature parameter has a significant impact on the concentration function, and when the curvature of the channel is increased, the absolute value of the nanoparticle concentration distribution diminishes.

Recent work showed that κ-deformations can describe the quantum deformation of several relativistic models that have been proposed in the context of quantum gravity phenomenology. Starting from the Poincaré algebra of special-relativistic symmetries, one can toggle the curvature parameter Λ, the Planck scale quantum deformation parameter κ and the speed of light parameter c to move to the well-studied κ-Poincaré algebra, the (quantum) (A)dS algebra, the (quantum) Galilei and Carroll algebras and their curved versions. In this review, we survey the properties and relations of these algebras of relativistic symmetries and their associated noncommutative spacetimes, emphasizing the nontrivial effects of interplay between curvature, quantum deformation and speed of light parameters.

Carreau fluid flows past a stretching cylinder is elucidated in the present study. The transformed self-similarity and dimensionless boundary layer equations are solved by using the Homotopy analysis method. A convergence study of the method is illustrated explicitly. Series solutions of the highly nonlinear differential equations are computed and it is very efficient in demonstrating the characteristic of the Carreau fluid. Validation of the series solutions is achieved via comparing with earlier published results. Those results are obtained by using the Keller-Box method. The effects of the Weissenberg number and curvature parameter on the velocity profiles are discussed by graphs and tabular. The velocity curves have shown different behavior in and for an increase of the Weissenberg number. Further, the curvature parameter K does increase the velocity profiles.

The study is concerned with the heat transfer in a slip flow of a dusty fluid with the impact of a magnetic field and nonlinear thermal radiation. Furthermore, for the heat transfer process the Cattaneo–Christov heat flux model is used. Suitable similarity transformations are used to transform the governing equations. Later, shooting method and the Runge-Kutta Fehlberg's fourth fifth order (RKF-45) process are utilized to solve these reduced system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations. Impact of numerous involved parameters on the flow, thermal fields of both dust and fluid phase, skin friction and rate of heat transfer are visually plotted through graphs and discussed quantitatively. The significant outcomes drawn from the current study are that, the rise in value of the velocity slip parameter decreases the velocity profile but improves the thermal profile of both the phases. The growing values of curvature parameter intensify the flow and the thermal fields of both phases. The cumulative values of magnetic parameter and dust particle mass concentration parameter declines the velocity and thermal gradients of both phases. The thermal relaxation time parameter decays the temperature profile. The heat transfer rate is strengthened with the growing values of the curvature parameter, the velocity slip parameter, and radiation parameter.

Purpose The purpose of this study is to investigate the Cattaneo-Christov double diffusion, multiple slips and Darcy-Forchheimer’s effects on entropy optimized and thermally radiative flow, thermal and mass transport of hybrid nanoliquids past stretched cylinder subject to viscous dissipation and Arrhenius activation energy. Design/methodology/approach The presented flow problem consists of the flow, heat and mass transportation of hybrid nanofluids. This model is featured with Casson fluid model and Darcy-Forchheimer model. Heat and mass transportations are represented with Cattaneo-Christov double diffusion and viscous dissipation models. Multiple slip (velocity, thermal and solutal) mechanisms are adopted. Arrhenius activation energy is considered. For graphical and numerical data, the bvp4c scheme in MATLAB computational tool along with the shooting method is used. Findings Amplifying curvature parameter upgrades the fluid velocity while that of porosity parameter and velocity slip parameter whittles down it. Growing mixed convection parameter, curvature parameter, Forchheimer number, thermally stratified parameter intensifies fluid temperature. The rise in curvature parameter and porosity parameter enhances the solutal field distribution. Surface viscous drag gets controlled with the rising of the Casson parameter which justifies the consideration of the Casson model. Entropy generation number and Bejan number upgrades due to growth in diffusion parameter while that enfeeble with a hike in temperature difference parameter. Originality/value To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this research study is yet to be available in the existing literature.
