Aminreza Noghrehabadi; Mohammad Ghalambaz; Mehdi Ghalambaz; Afshin Ghanbarzadeh

Volume 2, Issue 1 , December 2012, , Pages 37-49

https://doi.org/10.22061/jcarme.2012.43

Abstract
  In the present paper, the flow and heat transfer of two types of nanofluids, namely, silver-water and silicon dioxide-water, were theoretically analyzed over an isothermal continues stretching sheet. To this purpose, the governing partial differential equations were converted to a set of nonlinear differential ...  Read More

Applying evolutionary optimization on the airfoil design

Abolfazl Khalkhali*; Hamed Safikhani

Volume 2, Issue 1 , December 2012, , Pages 51-62

https://doi.org/10.22061/jcarme.2012.46

Abstract
  In this paper, lift and drag coefficients were numerically investigated using NUMECA software in a set of 4-digit NACA airfoils. Two metamodels based on the evolved group method of data handling (GMDH) type neural networks were then obtained for modeling both lift coefficient (CL) and drag coefficient ...  Read More

Buckling of multi wall carbon nanotube cantilevers in the vicinity of graphite sheets using monotone positive method

Aminreza Noghrehabadia; Mohammad Ghalambaza; Afshin Ghanbarzadeh

Volume 1, Issue 2 , June 2012, , Pages 89-98

https://doi.org/10.22061/jcarme.2012.27

Abstract
  In this paper, a monotone positive solution is studied for buckling of a distributed model of multi walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) cantilevers in the vicinity of thin and thick graphite sheets subject to intermolecular forces. In the modeling of intermolecular forces, Van der Waals forces are taken into ...  Read More

Gh. Payganeh; A. Hadidi; M. Hallaji; N. Garjasi

Volume 1, Issue 2 , June 2012, , Pages 111-118

https://doi.org/10.22061/jcarme.2012.31

Abstract
  Over the last ten years, robustness of schemes has raised an increasing interest among the CFD community. The objective of this article is to solve the quasi-one-dimensional compressible flow inside a “Shubin nozzle” and to investigate Bean-Warming and flux vector splitting methods for numerical ...  Read More

A review of dough rheological models used in numerical applications

S. M. Hosseinalipour; A. Tohidi; M. Shokrpour

Volume 1, Issue 2 , June 2012, , Pages 129-147

https://doi.org/10.22061/jcarme.2012.34

Abstract
  The motivation for this work is to propose a first thorough review of dough rheological models used in numerical applications. Although many models have been developed to describe dough rheological characteristics, few of them are employed by researchers in numerical applications. This article reviews ...  Read More
