the directional response and roll stability characteristics of a partly filled tractor semi-trailer vehicle, with cylindrical tank, are investigated in various maneuvers. the dynamic interaction of liquid cargo with the tractor semi-trailer vehicle is also evaluated by integrating a dynamic slosh model of the partly filled tank with five-degrees-of-freedom of a tractor semi-trailer tank model. ...

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...

The most important reason for the design of curved tubes is increasing the heat transfer between the fluid and the wall which has provided many applications in various industries such as air conditioning, micro-electric, heat exchangers and etc. The aim of this study is numerical investigation of nano fluids flow in spiral tubes with injection of base fluid in different Reynolds numbers. Accord...

the harmony search algorithm is applied to optimum designs of a functionally graded (fg)-carbon naotubes (cnts)-reinforced pipes conveying fluid subjected to moving load. the structure is modeled by reddy cylindrical shell theory and the motion equations are derived by hamilton's principal. based on differential quadrature method (dqm), the dynamic displacement of system is derived. the le...

neonatal hypoglycemia is common and its prompt ‎management is important to reduce neurological sequelae. to determine the effect of two different glucose concentrations of intravenous (iv) fluid ‎therapy in the incidence of hypoglycemia in sick premature infants, 200 preterm infants ‎weighing 1500-2500 g were selected and randomly assigned into two groups. ‎group 1 received 10% dextrose in wate...

In this study, the effect off adding SiO2 nanoparticles on the viscosity of base fluid is investigated experimentally. Base fluids are chosen among common heat transfer fluids such as ethylene glycol, transformer oil and water. In addition different volume percentages of ethylene glycol in water are used as ethylene glycol-water solution. In every base fluid different volume fractions of SiO2 n...
