Dissipated electroosmotic EMHD hybrid nanofluid flow through the micro-channel.

The main objective of the present study is to explore the effects of electromagnetohydrodynamics electroosmotic flow of hybrid nanofluid through circular cylindrical microchannels. An analysis of hybrid nanofluid consisting of four different nanomaterials i.e., single and multiwall carbon nanotubes, silver, and copper is carried out. Yamada-Ota model is employed for the single and multi wall carbon nanotubes, whereas, Xue model is used for the Silver and Copper hybrid nanofluid for specifying the thermal conductivity. The imposed pressure gradient, electromagnetic field and electroosmosis actuated the fluid flow. The flow of heat transfer and Nusselt number with the account of various effects of Joule heating and viscous dissipation under the circumstances of constant heat flux are discussed graphically. The governing system of equations is molded into a system of coupled, nonlinear ordinary differential equations. The shooting technique is used to extract the numerical solutions of the converted system of equations. Also, the outturn of different parameters like Hartman number, the strength of lateral direction electric field, EDL (electric double layer) electrokinetic width, Joule heating parameters on the temperature, and velocity are investigated. The conversion of simple fluid to hybrid nanofluid has greatly alteration in the present model. It has enhanced the thermal properties of fluid. It is also noted that [Formula: see text] based hybrid nanofluid has most influential impact on Nusselt number, temperature distribution and velocity of the fluid. This attempt is useful for the designing of effectual electromagnetic appliances and exquisite.

The intelligent networks for double-diffusion and MHD analysis of thin film flow over a stretched surface.

This study presents a novel application of soft-computing through intelligent, neural networks backpropagated by Levenberg-Marquardt scheme (NNs-BLMS) to solve the mathematical model of unsteady thin film flow of magnetized Maxwell fluid with thermo-diffusion effects and chemical reaction (TFFMFTDECR) over a horizontal rotating disk. The expression for thermophoretic velocity is accounted. Energy expression is deliberated with the addition of non-uniform heat source. The PDEs of mathematical model of TFFMFTDECR are transformed to ODEs by the application of similarity transformations. A dataset is generated through Adams method for the proposed NNs-BLMS in case of various scenarios of TFFMFTDECR model by variation of rotation parameter, magnetic parameter, space dependent heat sink/source parameter, temperature dependent heat sink/source parameter and chemical reaction controlling parameter. The designed computational solver NNs-BLMS is implemented by performing training, testing and validation for the solution of TFFMFTDECR system for different variants. Variation of various physical parameters are designed via plots and explain in details. It is depicted that thin film thickness increases for higher values of disk rotation parameter, while it diminishes for higher magnetic parameter. Furthermore, higher values of Dufour number and the corresponding diminishing values of Soret number causes enhancement in fluid temperature profile. Further the effectiveness of NNs-BLMS is validated by comparing the results of the proposed solver and the standard solution of TFFMFTDECR model through error analyses, histogram representations and regression analyses.

Natural convection flow of a second grade fluid in an infinite vertical cylinder.

In current study natural convection flow of second grade fluid in an oscillating infinite vertical cylinder is investigated. The dimensionless governing equations for temperature and velocity are obtained by introducing the non-dimensional variables. Exact solutions for temperature and velocity field are computed by means of integral transformation. Solutions for cosine and sine oscillations of velocity field are introduced in the form of transient and post-transient arrangements. A special case for Newtonian fluid is obtained from general results and transients solutions are computed in terms of tables. In the end, the impact of dimensionless numbers (Grashof and Prandtl numbers) at different values of time is presented in graphical form and found that velocity for Newtonian fluid has greater values than the second grade fluid. Furthermore, there are some comparisons of calculated solutions with existing solutions in literature.

Inferior vena caval thrombosis: a rare complication of acute pancreatitis.

Inferior vena cava [IVC] thrombosis is a rare complication of acute pancreatitis. Here we report a case of IVC thrombosis with associated portal vein thrombosis complicating recurrent acute pancreatitis related to alcohol in a 31 year old male patient. We discuss the pathogenesis, clinical features and management of IVC thrombosis complicating acute and chronic pancreatitis in brief. The case is being reported for its rarity and early diagnosis as well as prompt treatment are essential for prevention of complications like pulmonary embolism.

Remnants of a 35-year-old ventriculo-atrial shunt presenting as orofacial pain.

A 36-year-old man presented to his general dental practitioner with pain in the right jaw and neck. This was initially treated as a dento-alveolar abscess. Three days later, he presented to the oral and maxillofacial unit with neck swelling to the right side. An ultrasound confirmed the swelling was due to thrombosis associated with remnants of a ventriculo-atrial (VA) shunt in the right internal jugular vein. This had been placed during the patient's infancy and apparently removed at the age of 8 years. The patient was treated conservatively with warfarin and Coamoxyclav. The patient made a full recovery and was placed on long-term anticoagulant therapy. The introduction of cerebral spinal fluid shunt procedures for the treatment of hydrocephalus has resulted in a reduction in the mortality rate from 80% to 15-20%. Various thrombo-embolic complications have been described with VA shunts. A thorough medical history is absolutely essential in order to identify uncommon causes of common presentations.
