in the age of technology, it is vital to cool down different parts of a device to use it more beneficially. using nanofluids is one of the most common methods which has shown very effective results. in this paper, we have rephrased a classic equation in fluid mechanics, i.e. the falkner-skan boundary layer equation, in order to be used for nanofluid. this nonlinear equation, which was presented...

In this paper, we investigate the steady boundary layer flow of a non-Newtonian fluid, represented by a Sisko fluid, over a wedge in a moving fluid. The equations of motion are derived for boundary layer flow of an incompressible Sisko fluid using appropriate similarity variables. The governing equations are reduced to a single third-order highly nonlinear ordinary differential equation in the ...

The non-similar solutions for the unsteady flow of a second grade fluid wereconstructed. The method of perturbation was used for the solution of the governing non-linear equation. The results of Rajagopal et al. (Int. J. Non-Linear Mechanics, 1983) can be obtained as a special case of the presented analysis.

In the present investigation, the magnetohydrodynamic Falkner-Skan flow of tangent hyperbolic nanofluids over a stretching/shrinking wedge with variable suction, internal heat generation/absorption and chemical reaction with activation energy have been scrutinized. Nanofluid model is composed of “Brownian motion’’ and “Thermophoresis’’. Transformed non-dimensional coupled non-linear equations a...

BACKGROUND The pressure drop-flow relations in myocardial bridges and the assessment of vascular heart disease via fractional flow reserve (FFR) have motivated many researchers the last decades. The aim of this study is to simulate several clinical conditions present in myocardial bridges to determine the flow reserve and consequently the clinical relevance of the disease. From a fluid mechanic...
