Effects of Hall current, ion-slip and Coriolis force on unsteady MHD Couette-Hartmann flow of a viscous incompressible electrically conducting fluid through a porous medium bounded by porous plates in the presence of a uniform transverse magnetic field which is either fixed relative to the fluid or to the moving porous plate is investigated using Laplace transform technique. The expressions for...

the steel shear wall and composite steel plate shear wall is introduced in recent three decade and is considered and is spread rapidly. composite steel plate shear wall which is made of a layer of thin steel sheet with coating of reinforced concrete in one or both sides of steel palate is considered a third generation of resistance shear walls against lateral loads that in addition to increasin...

We consider polymers attached to the tip of a cone, and the resulting force due to entropy loss on approaching a plate (or another cone). At separations shorter than the polymer radius of gyration Rg, the only relevant length scale is the tip-plate (or tip-tip) separation h, and the entropic force is given by F = A kBT/h. The universal amplitude A can be related to (geometry dependent) correlat...

As the stress amplitude in anchorage zone of cable-stayed bridges vary considerably, it is essential to study fatigue-load-bearing capacity structures cable-stayed-bridge girders. In this study, mechanical properties and force-transmission mechanism a built-in double-fixed steel anchor box, as well influence geometric design parameters main pressure plates support on its performance, were studi...

In this paper an analytical model for cold rolling of strip has been described. This model is developed based on the slab method of analysis and the hydrodynamic lubrication. The characteristics of rolling are obtained from the equations of equilibrium and the plate was allowed to strain harden assuming that the lubricant behaves as a Newtonian fluid. The shear stress to the plate is obtained b...

In this paper, static indentation and low velocity impact responses of a fully backed composite sandwich plate subjected to a rigid flat-ended cylindrical indenter/impactor are analytically investigated. The analysis is nonlinear due to nonlinear strain-displacement relation. In contrast to the existed analytical models for the indentation of composite sandwich plates, the stacking sequence of ...

A two-dimensional granular gas is produced by vibrating vertically a partial layer of beads on a horizontal plate. Measurements of the force applied by the granular gas to the sidewalls of the container, or granular pressure, are used to study the effect of the shaking strength, density, bead-plate restitution coefficient, and particle size on the steady properties of the gas.

We studied the cellular response to physeal distraction in the growth plates of skeletally immature rabbits. We used a new method of labelling and detection of proliferating cells with bromodeoxyuridine (BUdR) and an anti-BUdR antibody. The application of an external fixator but no distraction force produced no changes in the growth plates. After five days of distraction at a maximum force of 2...
