Characteristic features of squeeze film lubrication between two rectangular plates, of which, the upper plate has a roughness structure, in the presence of a uniform transverse magnetic field are examined. The fluid in the film region is represented by a viscous, incompressible and electrically conducting couple-stress fluid. The thickness of the fluid film region is h and that of the roughness...

The quadratic inference function (QIF) method becomes more acceptable for correlated data because of its advantages over generalized estimating equations (GEE). This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between platelet indices and blood pressure using QIF method, which has not been studied extensively in real data settings.A population-based longitudinal study was conducted in Beijing from...

We establish the existence of a weak solutions for a coupled system of kinetic and fluid equations. More precisely, we consider a Vlasov-FokkerPlanck equation coupled to compressible Navier-Stokes equation via a drag force. The fluid is assumed to be barotropic with γ-pressure law (γ > 3/2). The existence of weak solutions is proved in a bounded domain of R with homogeneous Dirichlet conditions...

A comprehensive method of theoretical analysis for finite Squeeze Film Damper using finite element method is presented. The modified Reynolds equation in the film is solved using the finite element discretization. A Galerkin variational method is applied for solving modified Reynolds equation to determine the pressures as well as load carrying capacities. The pressure distribution and load carr...

A new model for the vapor phase of a pressurized liquid called "the cluster model: which is originally introduced in this work, along with an accurate equation of state for the liquid phase called the LIR, is used to derive an accurate equation for the vapor pressure of liquid as a function of external pressure. The chemical Potential of both phase have been found to be in good agreement wi...

application of archie equation in carbonate reservoirs is not easy due to high dependence of its parameters on carbonate characteristics. carbonates are very heterogeneous in nature and hydrocarbon reserve estimation in these reservoirs of mostly oil-wet and intermediate-wet is highly influenced by the input values of saturation exponent. to our knowledge, non representative oils have been used...

abstract background: the pressure of consumption spots in eater supply systems is one of the most important hydraulic parameters can be used in optimized management of water distribution networks. since the pressure has some different effects on various parameters of the network management including its hydraulic functions, reliability, stability and leakage, its control is of great importance ...

Rarefied gas flows in thin film slider bearings are studied in a wide range of Knudsen numbers (Kn) at low Mach number (Ma) with the objective of developing simple physics-based semi-analytical models. A recently developed modified slip boundary condition for steady plane Couette flows and a generalized high-order velocity slip boundary condition, developed and validated earlier for pressure-dr...

We generate the Einstein–Gauss–Bonnet field equations in higher dimensions for a spherically symmetric static spacetime. The matter distribution is neutral fluid with isotropic pressure. condition of pressure, an Abel differential equation second kind, transformed to first order nonlinear canonical equation. This provides mechanism exact solutions systematically dimensions. Our solution generat...
