Heat and mass transfer in a slip flow of a generalized Newtonian fluid in a uniform tube with peristalsis

Ayman Mahmoud Sobh

– The study aims to investigate the combined effect of slip conditions and heat and mass transfer on peristaltic transport of a generalized Newtonian fluid in a uniform tube.

Evaluation of T-stress for a hypocycloid hole in an infinite plate

Y.Z. Chen

This paper is devoted to the evaluation of the T-stress for a hypocycloid hole in an infinite plate. The remote tractions are applied for the infinite plate containing the…
