On the Two-dimensional Rotational Body of Maximal Newtonian Resistance
نویسنده
چکیده
We investigate, by means of computer simulations, shapes of nonconvex bodies that maximize resistance to their motion through a rarefied medium, considering that bodies are moving forward and at the same time slowly rotating. A two-dimensional geometric shape that confers to the body a resistance very close to the theoretical supremum value is obtained, improving previous results.

Determination of Thermal Resistance in Three-Dimensional Analysis of Micro-Channel Heat Sink with Non - Newtonian Fluids
Micro-Channel Heat Sink is a heat exchanger which is used to control the temperature of electronic devices with high heat flux. A comprehensive thermal model for the micro-channels should include three dimensional conduction analysis in the solid body together with three dimensional developing fluid flow as well as heat transfer analyses in the fluid section. This paper reports on a research ...

متن کاملPossible relation between galactic flat rotational curves and the Pioneers’ anomalous acceleration
We consider a generic minimal modification of the Newtonian potential, that is a modification that introduces only one additional dimensional parameter. The modified potential depends on a function whose behavior for large and small distances can be fixed in order to obtain (i) galactic flat rotational curves and (ii) a universal constant acceleration independent of the masses of the interactin...
متن کاملEntropy generation analysis of non-newtonian fluid in rotational flow
The entropy generation analysis of non-Newtonian fluid in rotational flow between two concentric cylinders is examined when the outer cylinder is fixed and the inner cylinder is revolved with a constant angular speed. The viscosity of non-Newtonian fluid is considered at the same time interdependent on temperature and shear rate. The Nahme law and Carreau equation are used to modeling dependenc...
متن کاملTwo-dimensional body of maximum mean resistance
A two-dimensional body, exhibiting a slight rotational movement, moves in a rarefied medium of particles which collide with it in a perfectly elastic way. In previously realized investigations by the first two authors, Plakhov & Gouveia (2007, Nonlinearity, 20), shapes of nonconvex bodies were sought which would maximize the braking force of the medium on their movement. Giving continuity to th...
