In this study, the effects of linear and rotational speed of the friction stir welding tool was investigated on the heat generation and distribution at surface and inside of workpiece, material flow and geometry of the welding area of poly methyl methacrylate (PMMA) workpiece. The commercial CFD Fluent 6.4 software was used to simulation of the process with computational fluid dynamic technique...

Analysis of non-laminar flows in coarse alluvial beds has a wide range of applications in various civil engineering, oil and gas, and geology problems. Darcy equation is not valid to analyze transient and turbulent flows, so non-linear equations should be applied. Non-linear equations are classified into power and binomial equations. Binomial equation is more accurate in a wide range of velocit...

In this article, we analyze the flow of a fluid through a domain modeled using the equations for generalized non-linear Stokes flow coupled with flow through a porous media, modeled using generalized non-linear Darcy flow equations. A prescribed flow rate is assumed specified along the inflow portion of the non-linear Stokes flow boundary. Existence and uniqueness of a variational solution to t...

In this work, analytical solutions are provided to the nonlinear equations arising in thermal and flow-induced vibration in fluid-conveying structures using Galerkin-differential transformation method with cosine aftertreatment technique. From the analysis, it was established that increase of the length and aspect ratio of the fluid-conveying structures result in decrease the nonlinear vibratio...

this paper is on the elasto-plastic analysis of plane stress problems. a five-parameter yield surface is presented. this yield criterion uses associate flow along with mixed hardening rule. the analytical formulations are written and related computer program for non-linear analysis is prepared. finally, based on the formulations, numerical examples are solved.

a computational optimization was performed for a direct-injection diesel engine using three-dimensional modeling. fully transient cfd analyses of different valve profile strategies for the intake and compression strokes were performed to evaluate the effects on both engine performance and in-cylinder flow-field evolution. the turbulence model was used along with the second order linear upwind s...

In this paper, the problem of unsteady mixed convection boundary layer flow of a viscous incompressible fluid near the stagnation-point on a vertical permeable plate with both cases of prescribed wall temperature and prescribed wall heat flux is investigated numerically. Here, both assisting and opposing buoyancy forces are considered and studied. The non-linear coupled partial differential equ...
