Nanoglasses are a new class of noncrystalline solids. They differ from today's glasses due to their microstructure that resembles the microstructure of polycrystals. They consist of regions with a melt-quenched glassy structure connected by interfacial regions, the structure of which is characterized (in comparison to the corresponding melt-quenched glass) by (1) a reduced (up to about 10%) den...

We discuss the linear and nonlinear rheology of concentrated microscale emulsions, amorphous disordered solids composed of repulsive and deformable soft colloidal spheres. Based on recent results from simulation and theory, we derive quantitative predictions for the dependences of the elastic shear modulus and the yield stress on the droplet volume fraction. The remarkable agreement with experi...

To study the mixed convection flows in a square double lid-driven cavity with various inclination angles, a numerical method based on the finite volume method is used. In this investigation Al2O3/water nanofluid with particle diameter of 47 nanometers in different solid volume fractions have been utilized. Flow is obtained by the top and bottom walls, which slide in opposite direction at consta...

The microstructure and mechanical properties of 7075 wrought aluminum alloy produced by strain induced melt activation (SIMA) route were investigated.Also liquid volume fraction measurement was studied by three procedures. Remelting process was carried out in the range of 560 to 610 °C for 20 min holding. The microstructure in the semi-solid state consists of fine spherical solid grains surroun...

steady state natural convection of al2o3-water nanofluid inside a square cavity filled with a porous medium is investigated numerically. the temperatures of the two side walls of the cavity are maintained at th and tc, where tc has been considered as the reference condition. the top and the bottom horizontal walls have been considered to be insulated i.e., non-conducting and impermeable to mass...

in this article cuo/water nanofluid was synthesized by using polyvinylpyrolidone (pvp) as the dispersant.  thenanofluid stability period and the heat transfer enhancement were determinedby measuring the thermal conductivities. to study the nano-fluid stability, zeta (ζ) potential, and absorbency were measured under different ph values and pvp surfactant concentrations; also thermal conductivity...
