On the dissipation layer of radial bearings

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 1988
The dissipation boundary layer of certain radial bearings is identified. It is shown that, under certain conditions, the temperature outside this layer is constant.

The combined effect of variable viscosity and variable thermal conductivity on natural convection couette flow

open access: yesInternational Journal of Thermofluids, 2020
The present work analyses the combined effects of variable viscosity and thermal conductivity on fluid flow and thermodynamics in a vertical channel. Equations of energy and momentum that describe the flow situation are solved using Homotopy perturbation

Taylor dispersion in variable-density, variable-viscosity pulsatile flows

open access: yes
The phenomenon of Taylor or shear-induced dispersion of a non-passive scalar field in a pulsatile pipe flow is investigated, accounting for the scalar field's influence on fluid density and transport coefficients. By employing multiple scale analysis, an effective one-dimensional, unsteady mixing problem for the scalar field is obtained, which includes

The influence of near-wall density and viscosity gradients on turbulence in channel flows

open access: yes, 2016
The influence of near-wall density and viscosity gradients on near-wall turbulence in a channel are studied by means of Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS) of the low-Mach number approximation of the Navier--Stokes equations.

Kinetic Insights into Precursor‐Assisted Soft Sphere Close Packing Revealed by In Situ GISAXS with Implications for Gas Sensing

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The versatile precursor‐assisted soft sphere close packing during slot‐die coating is investigated with in situ X‐ray scattering. The soft crystallization pathways towards a close packing involve multistep structural transitions such as surface nucleation, in‐plane, and out‐of‐plane crystallization.

A local version of Einstein's formula for the effective viscosity of suspensions

open access: yes, 2019
We prove a local variant of Einstein's formula for the effective viscosity of dilute suspensions, that is $\mu^\prime=\mu (1+\frac 5 2\phi+o(\phi))$, where $\phi$ is the volume fraction of the suspended particles.

Advanced Flame Retardant Strategies and Fire Performance Assessment for Safer Photovoltaics in Buildings: A Two‐Part Review

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The integration of photovoltaic (PV) systems into building structures introduces distinct fire risks with critical implications for occupant safety. This review examines the key fire hazards associated with PV implementation and explores mitigation strategies, including flame‐retardant additives.
