water deficit stress permanent or temporary limits the growth and distribution of natural vegetation and performance of plants more than other environmental factors. in order to investigate the effect of drought stress and mycorrhizal-arbuscular fungi inoculation on the growth and yield of savory (satureja hortensis l.) a factorial experiment based on completely randomized design were conducted...

in this paper, the modified euler-bernoulli beam model is presented to examine the influence of surface elasticity and residual surface tension on the critical force of axial buckling of nanotubes in the presence of rotary inertia. an explicit solution is derived for the buckling loads of microscaled euler beams considering surface effects. the size-dependent buckling behavior of the nanotube d...

The stability of shape fluctuations of a flat charged membrane immersed in a fluid is analyzed using a linear stability analysis. A displacement of the membrane surface causes a fluctuation in the conterion density at the surface. This in turn causes an additional contribution to the force density in the momentum equation for the fluid, which results in a normal stress at the surface which is o...

in this article, finite difference method (fdm) is used to study the size-dependent free vibration characteristics of rectangular nanoplates considering the surface stress effects. to include the surface effects in the equations, gurtin-murdoch continuum elasticity approach has been employed. the effects of surface properties including the surface elasticity, surface residual stress and surface...

In recent years, dielectrophoresis based microfluidics systems have been used to manipulate colloids, inert particles, and biological microparticles, such as red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets, cancer cells, bacteria, yeast, micro‌organisms, proteins, DNA, etc. In the current study the governing electric potential equations have been solved in the presence of cell for the purpose of ...

the effect of partial slip and temperature dependent fluid properties on the mhd mixed convection flow from a heated, non-linearly stretching surface in the presence of radiation and non-uniform internal heat generation/absorption is investigated. the velocity of the stretching surface was assumed to vary according to power-law form. thermal transport is analyzed for two types of non-isothermal...
