渤海莱州湾和黄河口附近海冰剪切强度的试验研究

剪切强度是海冰的基本力学性质,直接影响到冰区结构物冰荷载的确定以及海冰在动力演变过程中的破坏行为。采用侧限单面剪切试验对渤海莱州湾和黄河口的海冰进行了剪切强度测试,分析了温度、卤水体积、剪切应力率的影响。结果表明,海冰剪切强度随冰温的降低和剪切应力率的增大而呈线性增长,而与卤水体积的平方根呈幂函数降低。在此基础上,综合考虑卤水体积和剪切应力率的影响,对海冰剪切强度进行了双参数拟合,为研究海冰剪切破坏机理提供了参考依据。

Heat transfer intensification in hydromagnetic and radiative 3D unsteady flow regimes: A comparative theoretical investigation for aluminum and γ-aluminum oxides nanoparticles

This article investigates the colloidal study for water and ethylene glycol based nanofluids.The effects of Lorentz forces and thermal radiation are considered.The process of non-dimensionalities of governing equations is carried out successfully by means of similarity variables.Then,the resultant nonlinear nature of flow model is treated numerically via Runge-Kutta scheme.The characteristics of various pertinent flow parameters on the velocity,temperature,streamlines and isotherms are discussed graphically.It is inspected that the Lorentz forces favors the rotational velocity and rotational parameter opposes it.Intensification in the nanofluids temperature is observed for volumetric fraction and thermal radiation parameter and dominating trend is noted for γ-aluminum nanofluid.Furthermore,for higher rotational parameter,reverse flow is investigated.To provoke the validity of the present work,comparison between current and literature results is presented which shows an excellent agreement.It is examined that rotation favors the velocity of the fluid and more radiative fluid enhances the fluid temperature.Moreover,it is inspected that upturns in volumetric fraction improves the thermal and electrical conductivities.

pH Value Effects in Shear Rheology of Concentrated Alumina Suspensions

The influence of pH on the rheological properties of concentrated alumina suspensions was investigated. At various pH values, the alumina exhibited pseudoplastic, near Bingham flow behaviors. The fully-deflocculated suspensions exhibited Newtonian flow behaviors, while the fully-flocculated suspensions demonstrated very high viscosity and shear yield stress.
