The study of double-diffusive convection has received considerable attention during the last several decades since this occurs in a wide range of natural settings. The origins of these studies can be traced to oceanography when hot salty water lies over cold fresh water of a higher density resulting in double-diffusive instabilities known as “salt-fingers,” Stern (35; 36). Typical technological...

Authors presented 17 patients in whom two techniques for catheterization of the bladder after transurethral resection of the prostate complicated with undermining of the trigone of the bladder were applied. The first maneuver, used in twelve patients, was the insertion of a rigid stylet made from a 10F pneumatic probe used for percutaneous nephrolithotripsy into the Foley catheter in order to i...

We proposed a general formulation of the successive linearization method for solving highly nonlinear boundary value problem arising in rotating disk flow. The problem was studied under the effects of partial slip, thermal diffusion, and diffusion-thermo. The governing fundamental conservation equations of mass, momentum, angular momentum, energy, and concentration are transformed into a system...

An updated checklist for Stratiomyidae of Italy is presented. Previous knowledge and information are put together in a comprehensive way, integrated also with results obtained by sampling with Malaise traps in some of the test areas of the LIFE+ project ManFor C.BD. At the time of writing, with 91 known species, the Italian fauna of Stratiomyidae is the richest in Europe. Neopachygaster meromel...

In this article, we have presented a peristaltic flow of third order fluid in a channel with variable viscosity. The governing equations are constructed under long wave length and low Reynolds number approximations. A regular perturbation technique is applied and obtained expressions for the stream function, temperature, and concentration at a small Deborah number. The pertinent features of var...
