Abstract: The plane stick-slip problem has been solved analytically using the separation of variable technique. The essence of the mathematical procedure is to solve the problem separately for the “stick” ...

Abstract: Two different non-Newtonian models for blood, one a simple power law model exhibiting shear thinning viscosity, and another a generalized Maxwell model displaying both shear thining viscosity and ...

Abstract: Potential plastic hinge zones in confined concrete columns require that sufficient transverse reinforcement be provided to avert undesirable failure modes and to ensure dependable inelastic (ductile) behavior in earthquakes. ...

Abstract: Oscillatory and pulsatile flows of Newtonian fluids in straight elastic tubes are simulated numerically with the aid of Ling and Atabek’s “local flow” assumption for the nonlinear convective ...
