Two conservation laws of nonlinear micropolar elasticity (Jk = 0 and Lk = 0) are derived within the framework of Noether’s theorem on invariant variational principles, thereby extending the earlier authors’ results from the couple stress elasticity. Two non-conserved M -type integrals of linear micropolar elasticity are then derived and their values discussed. The comparison with related work i...

In this paper we study the magneto-micropolar fluid equations in R, prove the existence of the strong solution with initial data in H(R) for s > 3 2 , and set up its blow-up criterion. The tool we mainly use is Littlewood-Paley decomposition, by which we obtain a Beale-Kato-Majda type blow-up criterion for smooth solution (u, ω, b) which relies on the vorticity of velocity ∇× u only.

In this paper is presented the model of an incompressible micropolar fluid flow with slip using the initial and boundary conditions when the wall velocity is considered depending on the frequency of the vibration. Regarding the boundary conditions of the velocity at the wall, we remark that there is a discontinuity of the velocity at the fluid-wall interface. The solutions for velocity and micr...

The present investigation deals with the deformation in micropolar generalized thermoelastic medium with mass diffusion subjected to thermo mechanical loading due to thermal laser pulse. Laplace and Fourier transform technique is used to solve the problem. Concentrated normal force and thermal source are taken to illustrate the utility of approach. The closed form expressions of normal stress, ...

The micropolar fluid mechanics and its transport coefficients are derived from the linearized Boltzmann equation of rotating particles. In the dilute limit, as expected, transport coefficients relating to microrotation are not important, but the results are useful for the description of collisional granular flow on an inclined slope. (This paper will be published in Traffic and Granular Flows 2...

Microcontinuum field theories, including Micromorphic theory, Microstructure theory, Micropolar theory, Cosserat theory, nonlocal theory and couple stress theory, are the extensions of the classical field theories for the applications in microscopic space and time scales. They have been expected to overlap atomic model at microscale and encompass classical continuum mechanics at macroscale. Thi...

The steady flow of an electrically conducting, incompressible micropolar fluid in a narrow gap between two concentric rotating vertical cylinders, with porous lining on inside of outer cylinder, under an imposed axial magnetic field is studied. Beavers and Joseph slip condition is taken at the porous lining boundary. The velocity profiles, coefficient of skin friction on the cylinders are calcu...

In present study is concerned with the propagation of axisymmetric vibrations in a homogenous isotropic micropolar thermoelastic cubic crystal plate bordered with layers or half spaces of inviscid liquid subjected to stress free boundary conditions in context of Lord and Shulman (L-S) and Green and Lindsay (G-L) theories of thermoelasticity. The secular equations for symmetric and skew-symmetri...
