eunsteady slip-flow of second grade non-newtonian electrically conducting fluid over an oscillating sheet has been considered and solved numerically. a second-order slip velocity model is used to predict the flow characteristic over the wall. with the assumption of infinite length in the x-direction, the velocity of the fluid can be assumed as a function of y and t, hence, with proper change va...

This paper reviews the teaching and research career of the late Professor James R. Melcher. It describes his approach to the teaching of electric and magnetic fields bolstered by the lecture demonstrations he had developed. He is considered the founder of the modern day field of electrohydrodynamics. His undergraduate courses, reinforced by educational films which are briefly described, gave st...

mathematical simulation of flow toward drains is an important and indispensable stage in drainage design and management. many related models have been developed, but most of them simulate the saturated flow toward drains without a due consideration of the unsaturated zone. in this study, the two dimensional differential equation governing saturated and unsaturated flow in porous media is numeri...

multiphase flows are commonly encountered in oil and gas industries. the transport of multiphase flow causes the formation of slug, the increase of pressure drop and the possibility of phase changes therefore, a set of simulation runs was performed to predict flow regimes in a horizontal pipeline, and the results were compared with the baker chart. the effects of small downward inclinations of ...
