Viscoelasticity can dramatically exacerbate free surface flow instabilities. It is shown here that this destabilization arises, at least in part, from the combination of large tangential tension and curvature along a concave free surface. Tension and curvature generically lead to an unstable stress gradient at the free surface; a perturbation that locally thickens a fluid layer leads to a local...

A non-local theory is proposed to model dense granular flows. The idea is to describe the rearrangements occurring when a granular material is sheared as a self-activated process. A rearrangement at one position is triggered by the stress fluctuations induced by rearrangements elsewhere in the material. Within this framework, the constitutive law, which gives the relation between the shear rate...

This paper proposes a spatiotemporal deep learning framework, Trajectory-based Graph Neural Network (TrGNN), that mines the underlying causality of flows from historical vehicle trajectories and incorporates into road traffic prediction. The trajectory transition patterns are studied to explicitly model spatial demand via graph propagation along network; an attention mechanism is designed learn...

The present work proposes towards flow pattern prediction in a liquidliquid microchannel flow through a circular channel. Mass transfer in a microchannel mainly depends on the flow regime inside the channel. The liquid-liquid two phase flow regime in a microchannel depends on the flow velocity and the junction characteristics. Hence, the prediction of patterns has a superior role for the charac...

most of the earth's crust contains fluids, and fractures are common throughout the upper part. they exist at a wide range of scales from micro-fractures within grains to major faults and shear zones that traverse the crust. in this paper, the stress-dependent permeability in fractured rock masses have been investigated considering the effects of nonlinear normal deformation and shear dilation o...

this paper describes the effects of induced magnetic field and partial slip on the peristaltic flow of a couple stress fluids in an asymmetric channel. the two dimensional equation of couple stress fluid are simplified by making the assumptions of long wave length and low reynolds number. the exact solutions of reduced momentum equation and magnetic force function have been computed in wave fra...

the main contribution of the present work is to investigate the capability of exponential-type constitutive equationto model the warm deformation flow curves of a eutectoid steel in the temperature range of 620-770 °c andat the strain rates in the range of 0.01-10 s-1 conducted on a gleeble-1500 thermomechanical simulator. warmdeformation in this temperature range facilitates the occurrence of ...

Short-term prediction of traffic flow is central to alleviating congestion and controlling the negative impacts of environmental pollution resulting from vehicle emissions on both inter- and intra-urban highways. The strong need to monitor and control congestion time and costs for metropolis in developing countries has therefore motivated the current study. This paper establishes the applicatio...
