Geometrically nonlinear Cosserat elasticity in the plane: applications to chirality [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Modelling two-dimensional chiral materials is a challenging problem in continuum mechanics because three-dimensional theories reduced to isotropic two-dimensional problems become non-chiral. Various approaches have been suggested to overcome this problem.

Impact of Darcy–Forchheimer Inertial Drag and Heat Dissipation on Micropolar Hybrid Nanofluid Flow via Expanding Surface

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The hybrid nanofluid integrated with micropolar fluid shows growing interest due to the enhanced thermal performance in microscale devices. These improved properties are due to their greater thermal conductivity and rotational effects. The proposed study assesses the significance of velocity slip on the flow characteristic of micropolar ...
