abstract: there is always a need to increase a distillate output of solar still. if plates will be used inside solar still then distillate output of solar still are expected to increase. hence, an experimental study is conducted to improve distillate output of basin solar stills by increasing the effective surface area with the help of different plates. for the purpose of experiment, three sola...

Growth plate, named also as physis, is the anatomical structure responsible for the bone growth. Apart from numerous biological and biochemical factors, biomechanics has also strong influence on its functioning. Loadings acting on the bone element during its development can change (increase or decrease) the velocity of growth. This way mechanobiological processes influence the skeletal developm...

Vibration of double-graphene sheet-system is considered in this study. Graphene sheets are coupled by Pasternak elastic medium. Classic and Mindlin plate theories are utilized for modeling the coupled system. Upper sheet carries a moving mass. Governing equations are derived using energy method and Hamilton’s principle considering surface stress effects and nonlocal parameter.  Using Galerkin m...

The main aim is to study the two dimensional axisymmetric problem of thick circular plate in modified couple stress theory with heat and mass diffusive sources. The thermoelastic theories with mass diffusion developed by Sherief et al. [1] and kumar and Kansal [2] have been used to investigate the problem. Laplace and Hankel transforms technique is applied to obtain the solutions of the governi...

The goal of this work is to develop low order dynamical systems models for the unsteady aerodynamic forces on small wings and to better understand the physical characteristics of unsteady laminar separation. Reduced order models for a fixed, high angle of attack flat plate are obtained through Galerkin projection of the governing Navier-Stokes equations onto POD modes. Projected models are comp...
