The paper aims to investigate the effect of the electromagnetic field on the convective events which occur when electrically conducting fluid is squeezed between two parallel disks.

The effects of the current occurring due to the direct voltage power supply at the thin electrical conducting fluid layer squeezed between the parallel disks, the magnetic field inducted by this current, and Ohmic heating on the squeezing process and heat convection are considered. Both approximate analytical and numerical solutions of the problem are obtained and a good agreement is observed between them.

The effects of the basic parameters such as Hartmann number, Reynolds number, the ratio of the distance between the disks to the radius of the disks, Prandtl number, Eckert number, heat conduction, and electric current on the squeezing event, and load capacity of the fluid between two parallel disks are able to be determined from the solutions. These solutions also enable the effects of the basic parameters such as Hartmann number, Reynolds number, the ratio of the distance between the disks to the radius of the disks, Prandtl number, Eckert number, heat conduction, and electric current on the squeezing event and load capacity of the fluid between two parallel disks to be determined.

Some important results and comparisons are presented graphically.

This paper aims to study the inertia squeeze film characteristics between ferrofluid-lubricated circular stepped disks. Owing to the development of modern machine systems, the application of ferrofluids has received great attention. Because the circular disks are a special situation of circular stepped squeeze films, a further study of fluid inertia force effects on the ferrofluid-lubricated circular stepped squeezing mechanism is motivated.

On the basis of the ferrohydrodynamic flow model of Shliomis incorporating the momentum integral method, the effects of fluid inertia forces in ferrofluid-lubricated circular stepped squeeze films in the presence of external magnetic fields are investigated in this study. Analytical solutions of squeeze film performances are derived.

The fluid inertia force effects provide an increased load capacity and a longer squeeze film time for the ferrofluid-lubricated circular stepped squeeze film, especially for a larger value of the inertia parameter, the Langevin parameter and the volume concentration and a smaller value of the radius ratio and the step height ratio.

For engineering applications, numerical tables for squeeze film loads of circular stepped disks are also provided in this paper.

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the effect of the rotating magnetic field of permanent magnets on the aluminium melt bath.

The purpose of this paper is to investigate squeezing and rotating motions between two parallel annular discs lubricated by ferro-fluid couple stress lubricant in the presence of a uniform magnetic field.

Based upon the Stokes couple stress theory and ferro-hydrodynamic model of Shliomis, squeeze film characteristics between two parallel annular discs are obtained.

According to the results, it is found that the combined effects of couple stress and ferro-fluid lubricant increase squeeze film performance with respect to the classical Newtonian lubricant. However, an increase in the rotational inertia parameter reduces squeeze film characteristics.

This paper is relatively original and describes the squeeze film characteristics between two parallel annular discs with rotational inertia, couple stress and ferro-fluid lubricant effects.

The purpose of this study is to examine the magneto-hydrodynamic (MHD) effect on porous exponential slider bearings lubricated with couple stress fluid and to derive the modified Reynolds’s equation for non-Newtonian fluid under various operating conditions to obtain the optimum bearing parameters.

Based upon the MHD theory and Stokes theory for couple stress fluid, the governing equations relevant to the problem under consideration are derived. This paper analyzes the effect on porous exponential slider bearings with an electrically conducting fluid in the presence of a transverse magnetic field. Semi-numerical solutions are obtained and discussed.

It is found that there is an increase in the load carrying capacity, frictional force and decrease in the co-efficient of friction in porous bearings due to the presence of magnetic effects with couple stress fluid.

The work presented here is based on the assumption that all non‐linear properties, appearing in the evolution of magnetic fluids, are a complex system. Then, the establishment of a relationship between the structural changes in the geomagnetic field and the occurrence of earthquakes by employing the so‐called infrastructural informational analysis is undertaken. From the authors’ previously published serial work, it was found that the “zero isotropic zone” is a “discernible characteristic indication” which can be applied to the predictions of earthquakes with great practical effect.

The purpose of this study is to determine the impact of two-phase power law nanofluid on a curved arterial blood flow under the presence of ovelapped stenosis. Over the past couple of decades, the percentage of deaths associated with blood vessel diseases has risen sharply to nearly one third of all fatalities. For vascular disease to be stopped in its tracks, it is essential to understand the vascular geometry and blood flow within the artery. In recent scenarios, because of higher thermal properties and the ability to move across stenosis and tumor cells, nanoparticles are becoming a more common and effective approach in treating cardiovascular diseases and cancer cells.

The present mathematical study investigates the blood flow behavior in the overlapped stenosed curved artery with cylinder shape catheter. The induced magnetic field and entropy generation for blood flow in the presence of a heat source, magnetic field and nanoparticle (Fe₃O₄) have been analyzed numerically. Blood is considered in artery as two-phases: core and plasma region. Power-law fluid has been considered for core region fluid, whereas Newtonian fluid is considered in the plasma region. Strongly implicit Stone’s method has been considered to solve the system of nonlinear partial differential equations (PDE’s) with 10–6 tolerance error.

The influence of various parameters has been discussed graphically. This study concludes that arterial curvature increases the probability of atherosclerosis deposition, while using an external heating source flow temperature and entropy production. In addition, if the thermal treatment procedure is carried out inside a magnetic field, it will aid in controlling blood flow velocity.

The findings of this computational analysis hold great significance for clinical researchers and biologists, as they offer the ability to anticipate the occurrence of endothelial cell injury and plaque accumulation in curved arteries with specific wall shear stress patterns. Consequently, these insights may contribute to the potential alleviation of the severity of these illnesses. Furthermore, the application of nanoparticles and external heat sources in the discipline of blood circulation has potential in the medically healing of illness conditions such as stenosis, cancer cells and muscular discomfort through the usage of beneficial effects.

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the effect of a magnetic field on the flow of a biomagnetic fluid.

The flow takes place in a straight circular duct and the magnetic field is produced by a line dipole placed perpendicularly to the longitudinal axis of the duct.

The numerical results show that the magnetic field affects the characteristics of the flow, the velocity components and the friction factor, even for medium field intensity. A relation is proposed for the maximum and minimum longitudinal pressure drop in the pipe.

From the present results it is obtained that it is important to take into account the magnetic properties of blood in the various applications that involve blood flow in the presence of a magnetic field.

In a previous paper (J. Doc. 20 (4) 1964, 212–35) a series of tests on the coverage, overlap, and indexing of abstracts journals were described. Briefly, these were carried out by selecting recent, comprehensive bibliographies on specific subjects, searching the appropriate abstracts journals via the author indexes to determine the number of references given in the bibliography that were abstracted, then consulting the subject indexes to try to locate those references which are known to have been abstracted. A further eight bibliographies have been studied, and the results are reported here.
