Abstract: Several diseases like Sickle Cell Anemia, Thalassemia, Hereditary Spherocytosis, Malaria, and Micro-angiopathic Hemolytic Anemia can alter the normal shape of red blood cells (RBCs). The objective of this study is to gain ...

Abstract: The paper presents a computational study of steady, laminar, two-dimensional (2D) mixed convection heat transfer from a continuously moving isothermal vertical plate to alumina–water nanofluid as in hot extrusion. The ...

Abstract: Soil moisture plays a significant role in hydrologic systems and agriculture by serving as an important input parameter in major hydrologic process modeling. As limited field studies on investigating soil moisture dynamics ...

Abstract: This paper describes the development of multiphase hybrid composites consisting of polyester reinforced with E-glass fiber and ceramic particulates. It further investigates the erosion wear response ...

Abstract: Snap-through instabilities in single and interconnected dielectric elastomer actuators have demonstrated their potential in enabling many functionalities such as large deformation, high-speed actuation, and enhanced flowrates ...

Abstract: A detailed and unique multisensor observation of an undular bore is presented. The data include those from rawinsonde, satellite, two Doppler radars, and a tall instrumented tower. Noteworthy are Doppler radar images that ...

Abstract: The local planar flow of incompressible fluid past an obstacle of semi-circular cross section is considered, the obstacle being mounted on a long flat surface. The far-field motion is one of ...

Abstract: The steady two-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) stagnation-point flow of an electrically conducting incompressible viscous fluid toward a shrinking sheet is investigated. The sheet is shrunk ...

Abstract: In a “very high-temperature reactor” (VHTR), the Nb–V-modified 9Cr–1Mo creep strength enhance the ferritic (CSEF) steel which is the chosen material for fabrication of reactor pressure vessels and piping because of its ...
