Effects of Couple Stress on the Growth Rate of Rayleigh- Taylor Instability at the Interface in a Finite Thickness Couple Stress Fluid [PDF]
In this paper the effects of couple stress fluid on the control of Rayleigh-Taylor instability at the interface between a dense fluid accelerated by a lighter fluid is studied. A simple theory, based on fully developed approximations, is used to derive

Global Stability For Double-Diffusive Convection In A Couple-Stress Fluid Saturating A Porous Medium [PDF]
We show that the global non-linear stability threshold for convection in a double-diffusive couple-stress fluid saturating a porous medium is exactly the same as the linear instability boundary.

Determination of the Spherical Couple-Stress in Polar Linear Isotropic Elasticity [PDF]
It is well known that the conventional couple-stress theory leaves the spherical part of the couple-stress indeterminate. This indeterminacy problem is recently resolved for fibrous composites subjected to either small or large deformations and ...
