Abstract The paper deals with a theoretical study on blood flow in stenosed segment of an artery, when is mixed nano-particles. Blood treated here as couple stress fluid. Stenosis known to impede and be the cause different cardiac diseases. Since arterial wall weakened due stenosis, it may lead dilatation /aneurysm. homotopy perturbation technique employed determine solution problem for case mi...

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 flow of a couple stress fluid generated by performing longitudinal and torsional oscillations of a porous circular cylinder subjected to constant suction at the surface of the cylinder is studied. A finite difference method is proposed to analyze the velocity components, in an infinite expanse of an incompressible couple stress fluid under vanishing couple stresses of type A condition or su...

An investigation has been made to study the off-centered stagnation flow of a couple stress fluid over a rotating disk. The model developed for the governing problem in the form of partial differential equations has been converted to ordinary differential equations with the use of suitable similarity transformation. The analytical approximation has been made with the most promising analytical a...

In this paper, mixed convection flow of couple stress fluid in circular annulus is studied. First order chemical reaction, Soret and Dufour effects are taken into consideration. The governing partial differential equations are transformed into a system of ordinary differential equations and solved by Homotopy Analysis Method (HAM). The effects of Soret number, Dufour number, chemical reaction p...

Characteristic features of squeeze film lubrication between two rectangular plates, of which, the upper plate has a roughness structure, in the presence of a uniform transverse magnetic field are examined. The fluid in the film region is represented by a viscous, incompressible and electrically conducting couple-stress fluid. The thickness of the fluid film region is h and that of the roughness...

Nonlinear Bending Analysis of Micro/Nano Rectangular and Annular Sector Plates Using a Modified Higher-Order Shear Deformation Theory the Couple Stress

A global nonlinear stability analysis is performed for a couple-stress fluid layer heated from below saturating a porous medium with temperature-pressure dependent viscosity for different conducting boundary systems. Here, the global nonlinear stability threshold for convection is exactly the same as the linear instability boundary. This optimal result is important because it shows that lineari...
