Based on the momentum and continuity equations for ferrofluid under an applied magnetic field, assuming linear behavior for the magnetic material of the ferrofluid, and using carrying current concentric finite wire magnetic field model, the magnetic force was calculated. A modified Reynolds equation is obtained. It is simultaneously solved with the energy equation numerically by the finite diff...

Abstract It is well known that the conventional couple-stress theory leaves spherical part of indeterminate. This indeterminacy problem recently resolved for fibrous composites subjected to either small or large deformations and containing a single family fibres resistant in bending (Soldatos Math. Mech. Solids, 2021, https://doi.org/10.1177/10812865211061595 ). However, remains still unsolved ...
