This research proposes mesh and domain optimization strategies for a popular Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) technique to estimate the open water propulsive characteristics of fixed pitch propellers accurately and time-efficiently based on…
Automatic hexahedral mesh generation is a very deserving solution for better performance of finite element analysis of complex large structures. At present plastering, whisker weaving and whisker weaving based plastering algorithm are available to…
The objective of this investigation is to study the influence of thermal radiation and magnetic Prandtl number on the steady MHD heat and mass transfer by mixed convection flow of a viscous, incompressible, electrically-conducting, Newtonian fluid…
The development of centered heat conducting obstacle effect on combined magnetoconvective flow in a lid driven chamber has been numerically studied. The enclosure considered has rectangular horizontal lower surfaces and vertical side surfaces. The…
The steady MHD flow in the presence of temperature dependent heat source in a viscous incompressible fluid bounded by a parallel flat wall and a long wavy wall is studied with heat and mass transfer, taking into account the thermal-diffusion (Soret)…
The transom stern offered some advantages over the traditional rounded cruiser stern reducing the resistance of a ship. This can only be achieved if the transom stern is carefully designed with suitable transom immersion ratio. In this study, the…
An analysis of the thermal radiation and viscous dissipation effects on an unsteady MHD mixed convection flow of a viscous incompressible fluid past a vertical porous plate, in the presence of variable wall heat flux and heat generation/absorption is…
Mathematical modeling of planing hulls and determination of their characteristics are the most important subjects in hydrodynamic study of planing vessels. In this paper, a new mathematical model has been developed based on pressure distribution.…
The effects of an overlapping stenosis on blood flow characteristics in an artery have been studied. Blood has been represented by a couple stress fluid. The flow equations have been linearised and the expressions for pressure drop, resistance to the…
In the present paper, the stiffening effect of carbon nanotubes is quantitatively investigated by micromechanics methods. The Mori-Tanaka effective-field method is employed to calculate the effective elastic moduli of composites with aligned or…
