Stone Stability in Nonuniform Flow

Stability of One Bay Symmetrical Frames with Nonuniform Members

This paper deals with simple portal or gable steel frames with varying moment of inertia. Critical load for such frames is calculated by means of a very simple and approximate method through which the variation of moment of inertia for the members is considered by a quadratic function and then the equilibrium and continuity conditions have been used. The degree of precision of this method has b...

Average Steady Nonuniform Flow in Stratified Formations

A mathematical model of average nonuniform flow in heterogeneous tratified media is developed. The averaged Darcy's law is obtained by deriving the analytical expression of the effective conductivity tensor for media with small heterogeneities. The fundamental solution of the average flow equation (mean Green function) corresponding to the flow toward a single point source of deterministic disc...

Electroosmotic capillary flow with nonuniform zeta potential

The present work is an analytical and experimental study of electroosmotic flow (EOF) in cylindrical capillaries with nonuniform wall surface charge (zeta-potential) distributions. In particular, this study investigates perturbations of electroosmotic flow in open capillaries that are due to induced pressure gradients resulting from axial variations in the wall zeta-potential. The experimental ...

Solute Dispersion by Electroosmotic Flow in Nonuniform Microfluidic Channels

Introduction Dispersion is a phenomenon that determines the resolution of several types of liquid phase chromatography, and is an important component of overall transport through electrokinetic flow systems. The severe dispersion of solute as it travels through a U-turn, for example, has attracted recent attention for this reason [1]. In “ideal” electroosmotic flow through uniform, straight cha...
