Recently, it has been shown that under certain conditions, the Eyring-Powell fluid model can exhibit shearthickening properties without losing known Newtonian or shear-thinning properties. The and Modified fluids have great potential in enhancing armour production reducing cost of maintenance for bullet proof vests. Coriolis force, on other hand, explains natural phenomena such as direction cyc...

Although there is abundant evidence that a rich microflora exists at the bottom of the ocean, in deep oil well brines, and in other habitats characterized by high pressure (cf. ZoBell, 1946), no clear understanding has been reached concerning the influence of pressure on the growth, viability, and metabolism of the organisms in such environments. The results of older (Certes, 1884a,b,c; Regnard...

This paper aims to study the flow of an incompressible, isothermal Eyring-Powell fluid in a helical screw rheometer. The complicated geometry of the helical screw rheometer is simplified by "unwrapping or flattening" the channel, lands, and the outside rotating barrel, assuming the width of the channel is larger as compared to the depth. The developed second order nonlinear differential equatio...

We measured the ion selectivity of cGMP-dependent currents in detached membrane patches from the outer segment of cone photoreceptors isolated from the retina of striped bass. In inside-out patches excised from either single or twin cones the amplitude of these currents, under symmetric ionic solutions, changed with the concentration of cGMP with a dependence described by a Hill equation with a...
