Abstract The reflection and refraction phenomenon of propagation waves in couple stress micropolar thermoviscous elastic solid media with independent viscoelastic properties have been studied. structure the model has taken such that plane interface is divides given into two half spaces perfect contact. Here, we find there are five waves, one them propagating independently while others set coupl...

We investigate antiplane Stoneley waves, localized at the discontinuity surface between two perfectly bonded half-spaces. Both half-spaces are elastic linear isotropic and possess a microstructure that is described within theory of couple stress materials with micro-inertia. show deeply affects wave propagation, which permitted under broad conditions. This outcome stands in marked contrast to c...

The present study investigates the fluid flow and heat transfer characteristics occurring during the melting process due to a stretching / shrinking surface in micropolar fluid. A uniform magnetic field is applied normally to the surface. The governing equations representing fluid flow were transformed into nonlinear ordinary differential equations using similarity transformation. The equations...
