In this paper we have developed a model for two dimensional motion of a steady MHD flow through circular pipe which is bounded by a porous medium in presence of applied magnetic field. We have considered Brinkman equation for the flow through porous media using approximate boundary conditions the governing equation have been solved and solution for velocity in both the cases with porous media h...

In this paper, we study the pulsatile flow of blood through stenotic arteries. The inner layer of arterial walls is modeled as a porous medium and human blood is assumed as an incompressible fluid. A numerical algorithm based on the finite element method is developed to simulate the blood flow through both the lumen region and the porous wall. The algorithm is then applied to study the flow beh...

The transport of substances back and forth between surface water and groundwater is a very serious problem. We study herein the mathematical model of this setting consisting of the Stokes equations in the fluid region coupled with the Darcy equations in the porous medium, coupled across the interface by the Beavers–Joseph–Saffman conditions. We prove existence of weak solutions and give a compl...

The evaluation of a free fluid surface in a porous medium has several mathematical applications that are important in industries using molds, particularly in the fluid injection process. The vacuum-assisted resin transfer molding (VARTM) process is a promising technology in the primary composite industry. An accurate computational simulation of the VARTM process would be a cost-effective tool i...

The problem under consideration relates to a model of a porous wall devoted to aircraft motor noise reduction. For such a medium, the parameters of the propagation equation depend on the frequency. Then, the associated time-model involves non rational convolution operators, which make the model complex from both analysis and simulation points of view. In this paper, based on the so-called diffu...

We present modeling of an incompressible viscous flow through a fracture adjacent to a porous medium. A fast stationary flow, predominantly tangential to the porous medium is considered. Slow flow in such setting can be described by the Beavers-Joseph-Saffman slip. For fast flows, a nonlinear filtration law in the porous medium and a nonlinear interface law are expected. In this paper we rigoro...

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...

The propagation of gravity waves in an emerged three-layer porous medium is considered in this paper. Based on the assumption that the flow can be described by Darcy’s Law, an asymptotic theory is developed for small-amplitude long waves. This leads to a weakly nonlinear Boussinesqtype diffusion equation for the wave height, with coefficients dependent on the conductivities and depths of each l...
