Surface-tension-driven flow on a moving curved surfaceJournal of Engineering Mathematics - Tập 45 - Trang 283-308 - 2003
P.D. Howell
The leading-order equations governing the flow of a thin viscous film over a moving curved substrate are derived using lubrication theory. Three possible distinguished limits are identified. In the first, the substrate is nearly flat and its curvature enters the lubrication equation for the film thickness as a body force. In the second, the substrate curvature is constant but an order of magnitude...... hiện toàn bộ
Preventing buoyancy-driven flows of two Bingham fluids in a closed pipe – Fluid rheology design for oilfield plug cementingJournal of Engineering Mathematics - Tập 36 - Trang 327-348 - 1999
I.A. Frigaard, J.P. Crawshaw
The mechanically unstable situation of a heavy Bingham fluid resting on top of a light Bingham fluid in an inclined closed-ended pipe can be stabilised if the fluids have sufficiently large yield stresses. This paper focuses on determining the yield stresses that are sufficient to keep the fluids statically stable for a given fluid density difference, pipe diameter and pipe inclination. The result...... hiện toàn bộ
Oscillatory magnetogasdynamic slip flow in a microchannelJournal of Engineering Mathematics - Tập 84 - Trang 135-146 - 2013
Ramesh K. Agarwal, L. Chusak
The problem of pressure-driven magnetogasdynamic (MGD) slip flow with small rarefaction through a long microchannel is considered. The flow is driven by a steady or oscillatory pressure gradient. The study of MGD flows in microchannels is of interest since they occur in many electromagnetic microscale devices. In obtaining the microfluidic solutions in the presence of a magnetic field, some additi...... hiện toàn bộ
Relevance of symmetry methods in mechanics of materialsJournal of Engineering Mathematics - Tập 66 - Trang 103-119 - 2009
J.-F. Ganghoffer, V. Magnenet, R. Rahouadj
The interest and relevance of symmetry methods as a predictive and systematic methodology in the continuum mechanics of materials is analyzed, relying on a classification of the inherent aspects in terms of the direct, extended direct, and inverse methods. Although being interrelated, these three problems each have a specific argumentation which is separately exposed in the present contribution. T...... hiện toàn bộ

Interplay of quantum size effect, anisotropy and surface stress shapes the instability of thin metal filmsJournal of Engineering Mathematics - Tập 104 - Trang 77-92 - 2016
Mikhail Khenner
Morphological instability of a planar surface ([111], [011], or [001]) of an ultra-thin metal film is studied in a parameter space formed by three major effects (the quantum size effect, the surface energy anisotropy and the surface stress) that influence a film dewetting. The analysis is based on the extended Mullins equation, where the effects are cast as functions of the film thickness. The for...... hiện toàn bộ
