Thermo-Diffusion and Diffusion-Thermo Effects on MHD Convective Flow Past an Impulsively Started Vertical Plate Embedded in Porous Medium

East European Journal of Physics
This study introduces an analytical solution for the unsteady MHD free convection and mass transfer flow past a vertical plate embedded in porous medium, taking into account the Soret and Dufour effects.

Impact of thermal jump condition on Jeffrey fluid flow consisting nanoparticles: An unsteady case

International Journal of Thermofluids, 2023
In this study, we exercise the bivariate spectral local linearization method to solve the present problem of an unsteady hydrodynamic flow and heat transfer of Jeffrey nanofluid over a stretched boundary with viscous dissipation effects employing a ...

Origin, evolution and biogeographic dynamics of the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) in Southwestern Europe

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The Pleistocene is a key period for understanding the evolutionary history and palaeobiogeography of the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus). The species was first documented in southeastern Iberia at the beginning of the Middle Pleistocene and appears to have rapidly spread throughout Southwestern Europe, where it was found in numerous ...

How wildlife respond to tropical cyclones: short‐term tactics and long‐term impacts

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT From butterflies to lizards and from sharks to seabirds, wildlife exhibit tactics to survive the impacts of tropical cyclones, also known as hurricanes, cyclones, or typhoons depending on where they occur. Some species seek refuge during the storm by moving, some remain in place and ride it out, and others move longer distances, avoiding the ...

Animal empathy reconsidered: a multidimensional profile account

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Empathy is the glue that holds societies together and yet several fundamental questions about empathy persist. What is empathy (the definitional question)? Is it uniquely human and, if not, which nonhuman animals possess empathy (the distribution question)? Which type or quality of empathy is realized in different species (the quality question)

Dufour and Soret Effects on Mixed Convection Flow Past a Vertical Porous Flat Plate with Variable Suction

Nonlinear Analysis, 2006
In this paper the Dufour and Soret effects on mixed convection flow past a vertical porous flat plate embedded in a porous medium have been studied numerically. The governing non-linear partial differential equations have been transformed by a similarity

Evidence for adaptive explanations of semelparity in animals

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Semelparity, the reproductive strategy of reproducing once, is widespread but uncommon in animals. Classes of models to explain the evolution of semelparity are based either on age structure and mortality schedules – demographic models in which high post‐reproductive mortality risk favours high reproductive effort and semelparity results from ...

Numerical investigation of ion-slip current and stratification on MHD flow through high porosity medium with Soret and Dufour effects in a turning scheme

Partial Differential Equations in Applied Mathematics
The study examines the effects of stratification, Hall and ion-slip currents, viscous dissipation in a magnetic field, and high porosity medium, considering Soret and Dufour effects in a turning flow scheme.

Too Complex to Control? How Firms Navigate Scope 3 Governance Under Institutional Uncertainty

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As Scope 3 emissions make up the largest share of many firms' carbon footprints, firms face growing pressure to manage emissions beyond their direct control. Ongoing revisions of the CSRD, the GHG Protocol, and the SBTi Net‐Zero Standard further increase regulatory and methodological uncertainty.

Thermo-diffusion effects on MHD stagnation point flow towards a stretching sheet in a nanofluid

Propulsion and Power Research, 2014
Thermodiffusion effects on stagnation point flow of a nanofluid towards a stretching surface with applied magnetic field is presented. Similarity transforms are applied to reduce the equations that govern the flow to a system of nonlinear ordinary ...
