Analytical and numerical study of a pulsatile flow in presence of a magnetic field

This paper deals with the effects of magnetic field on heat transfer in a pulsatile flow. A mathematical model is developed to investigate the impact of magnetic field on the velocity and the temperature distributions between two concentric ducts. Finite differences method is used in order to solve the dimensionless governing equations, and implicit schemes for velocity and temperature are obtained. The effects of...

Gravitational effect on surface waves in a homogeneous fibre-reinforced anisotropic general viscoelastic media of higher and fractional order with voids

In this paper, gravitational effects on propagation of surface waves in a homogeneous fibre-reinforced anisotropic general viscoelastic media of higher order with voids is investigated. The general surface wave speed is derived to study the effects of gravity on surface waves. Particular cases for Stoneley and Rayleigh waves are discussed. The results obtained in this investigation are more general in the sense that...
