Abstract: A novel hydrodynamic model is used to study oscillatory flow of a particle-laden fluid driven by a torsionally oscillating disk. The present model is featured by a modified form of Navier–Stokes equations which is conceptually ...

Abstract: An alternative analytical model is proposed for hydrodynamics of incompressible Newtonian fluids with suspended solid particles. Unlike existing single-phase models that do not distinguish the velocity field of suspended ...

Abstract: An alternative model is proposed for hydrodynamic stability of plane parallel flow of an incompressible Newtonian fluid with suspended solid particles. For heavy particle-laden dusty gases with negligible particle volume ...

Abstract: A refined spherical cap model, combined with an elastic foundation model for the elastic substrate, is proposed to study the static wetting of a liquid droplet on a soft elastic substrate. The strain energy of the substrate ...

Abstract: Surface energy outside the contact zone, which is ignored in the classical Johnson–Kendall–Roberts (JKR) model, can play an essential role in adhesion mechanics of soft bodies. In this work, based on a simple elastic ...

Abstract: Based on finite element simulation, the present work studies free vibration of a microtubule surrounded by 3D randomly distributed cross linkers in living cells. A basic result of the present work is that transverse vibration ...
