Influence of thermophoretic diffusion of nanoparticles with Joule heating in flow of Maxwell nanofluid

The aspects of activation energy in magnetized Maxwell nanofluid flow with Brownian movement and thermophoretic diffusion have been elaborated here. Furthermore, Joule heating, variable conductivity and chemical reaction are scrutinized. The Buongiorno nanofluid thought is ratify to incorporate the importance of thermophoretic and Brownian diffusion. The attained ODEs have been solved via homotopic algorithm. The performance of operational variables is inspected. The Maxwell temperature field for Eckert number and variable conductivity factor have similar trend. The fluid concentration exaggerates for activation energy and decelerates for Brownian motion parameter. Furthermore, the brilliant outcomes attained and associated with possible existing prose accurately.     

The role of transient rheology in polymeric sintering

The initial theory of Frenkel and Eshelby for the coalescence of drops in air (or sintering) of Newtonian fluids, which equated the work of surface tension to the work done by viscous stresses while assuming biaxial extensional flow kinematics, was extended to the case of time-dependent material functions using the Upper Convected Maxwell (UCM) model. A numerical scheme was developed to solve the ordinary differential equations (ODE) for the stresses, which are embedded in the ODE based on the mechanical energy balance. Initial conditions required to solve the set of non-linear ODEs were obtained from visualization experiments of the coalescing drops as the theory for elastic contact gave unrealistically high values of the initial neck radius. The transient model predicted that coalescence was accelerated by increasing the relaxation time, the opposite relationship of what was predicted by the steady-state UCM formulation, and was capable of quantitatively predicting the experimental coalescence rates at times when viscoelasticity was important.     

Generalized Maxwell model for the viscoelastic behavior of a soda-lime-silica glass under low frequency shear loading

The linear viscoelastic behavior of a soda-lime-silica glass under low frequency shear loading is investigated in the glass transition range. Using the time-temperature superposition technique, the master curves of the shear dynamic relaxation moduli are obtained at a reference temperature of 566°C. A method to determine the viscoelastic constants from dynamic relaxation moduli is proposed. However, some viscoelastic constants cannot be directly measured from the experimental curves and others cannot be precisely obtained due to non-linearity effects at very low frequencies. The generalized Maxwell model is investigated from the experimental dynamic moduli without fixing the viscoelastic constants. A set of parameters is shown to be in good agreement with the experimental dynamic relaxation moduli, but does not give the correct values of the viscoelastic constants of the investigated glass. The soda-lime-silica glass exhibits a non-linear viscoelastic behavior at very low stress level which is usually observed for organic glasses. This non-linear behavior is questioned.

Plane surface suddenly set in motion in a viscoelastic fluid with fractional Maxwell model

The fractional calculus approach in the constitutive relationship model of viscoelastic fluid is introduced. The flow near a wall suddenly set in motion is studied for a non-Newtonian viscoelastic fluid with the fractional Maxwell model. Exact solutions of velocity and stress are obtained by using the discrete inverse Laplace transform of the sequential fractional derivatives. It is found that the effect of the fractional orders in the constitutive relationship on the flow field is significant. The results show that for small times there are appreciable viscoelastic effects on the shear stress at the plate, for large times the viscoelastic effects become weak.

Viscoelastic characterization of selected foods over an extended frequency range

Three disparate food systems (gummy candy, Mozzarella cheese, and cooked ham) were characterized for their viscoelastic behavior under isothermal conditions over an extended frequency range of 10⁻³ to 10⁴ Hz using broadband viscoelastic spectroscopy (BVS). The materials were tested for any stress-induced fluid flow. However, no evidence of fluid flow was found under the tested frequency range. Validity of time–temperature superposition for the selected materials was also tested and compared with data from BVS.     

Matrix valued adaptive cross approximation

A new variant of the Adaptive Cross Approximation (ACA) for approximation of dense block matrices is presented. This algorithm can be applied to matrices arising from the Boundary Element Methods (BEM) for elliptic or Maxwell systems of partial differential equations. The usual interpolation property of the ACA is generalised for the matrix valued case. Some numerical examples demonstrate the efficiency of the new method. The main example will be the electromagnetic scattering problem, that is, the exterior boundary value problem for the Maxwell system. Here, we will show that the matrix valued ACA method works well for high order BEM, and the corresponding high rate of convergence is preserved. Another example shows the efficiency of the new method in comparison with the standard technique, whilst approximating the smoothed version of the matrix valued fundamental solution of the time harmonic Maxwell system.

Numerical simulation of corner singularities: a paradox in Maxwell-like problems

This paper sums up some recent studies related to the numerical solution of boundary value problems deriving from Maxwell's equations. These studies bring to light the theoretical origins of the ‘corner paradox’ pointed out by numerical experiments for years: In a domain surrounded by a perfect conductor, a ‘nodal’ discretization can approximate the electromagnetic field only if the domain has no reentrant corners or edges. The explanation lies in a mathematical curiosity: two different interpretations of the same variational equation, which are both well-posed and lead either to the physical or a spurious solution! Two strategies which were recently proposed to remedy this flaw of nodal elements are described. To cite this article: C. Hazard, C. R. Mecanique 330 (2002) 57–68

The unsteady flow of viscoelastic fluid with the fractional derivative Maxwell model (FDMM) in a channel is studied in this note. The exact solutions are obtained for an arbitrary pressure gradient by means of the finite Fourier cosine transform and the Laplace transform. Two special cases of pressure gradient are discussed. Some results given by the classical models with integer-order are included in this note.     

高压下硝基甲烷分子温度的密度泛函计算

用密度泛函理论在B3LYP/6-311++G(2d,2P)计算水平上对硝基甲烷分子进行了结构优化、频率和热化学分析.发现:在相同温度条件下改变压强,分子熵函数产生了改变,当温度和压强条件相同时,对于不同物质熵函数的改变是相同的.以热力学理论中麦克斯韦关系为基础,通过计算等温过程中分子的熵函数对压强的变化率,用数值拟合方法得到不同压强条件下分子温度的表达式:T=T0+(1-B)[18.3858+0.5392P]V0,式中T0、V0分别表示分子系统初态的温度和体积,T、V分别表示系统在末态的温度和体积,B是体积的压缩比.在选定参数的情况下该表达式可以计算不同压强条件下CHNO含能材料的分子温度.同时,以硝基甲烷为验证,选取基本参数V0和B,计算其在C-J条件对应的爆压14GPa下,分子温度为3461K,对应爱因斯坦温度,相当于3228cm-1的能量,在实验中该能量足以激发硝基甲烷分子内振动能量重新分配过程,有可能激发C-N键的红外振动而引起单分子分解反应的发生.因此,此表达式可用于预测含能材料撞击点火过程单分子分解可能的反应通道.
