Transport Of Ions

A mathematical model was proposed for the transport of ions in a diaphragm separating an acidic and an alkaline electrolyte. Besides an approximate analytical solution, a more exact numerical one was presented. The model permits the calculation of the position of the neutralization zone in the diaphragm, rates of transport of ions, and potential in the diaphragm. The dependence of the position of the neutralization zone on the composition of both electrolytes and on the current density was calculated for two technically important cases.

C2 Continuity

Surface blending is widely applied in mechanical engineering. Creating a smooth transition surface of C2 continuity between time-dependent parametric surfaces that change their positions and shapes with time is an important and unsolved topic in surface blending. In order to address this issue, this paper develops a new approach to unify both time-dependent and time-independent surface blending with C2 continuity. It proposes a new surface blending mathematical model consisting of a vector-valued sixth-order partial differential equation and blending boundary constraints and investigates a simple and efficient approximate analytical solution of the mathematical model. A number of examples are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness and applications. The proposed approach has the advantages of (1) unifying time-independent and time-dependent surface blending, (2) always maintaining C2 continuity at trimlines when parametric surfaces change their positions and shapes with time, (3) providing effective shape control handles to achieve the expected shapes of blending surfaces but still exactly satisfy the given blending boundary constraints, and (4) quickly generating C2 continuous blending surfaces from the approximate analytical solution with easiness, good accuracy, and high efficiency.

Biosensor Response

A mathematical model of amperometric biosensors has been developed to simulate the biosensor response in stirred as well as non stirred solution. The model involves three regions: the enzyme layer where enzyme reaction as well as mass transport by diffusion takes place, a diffusion limiting region where only the diffusion takes place, and a convective region, where the analyte concentration is maintained constant. Using computer simulation the influence of the thickness of the enzyme layer as well the diffusion one on the biosensor response was investigated. The computer simulation was carried out using the finite difference technique.

The Impact

Abstract A mathematical model is envisioned to discourse the impact of Thompson and Troian slip boundary in the carbon nanotubes suspended nanofluid flow near a stagnation point along an expanding/contracting surface. The water is considered as a base fluid and both types of carbon nanotubes i.e., single-wall (SWCNTs) and multi-wall (MWCNTs) are considered. The flow is taken in a Dacry-Forchheimer porous media amalgamated with quartic autocatalysis chemical reaction. Additional impacts added to the novelty of the mathematical model are the heat generation/absorption and buoyancy effect. The dimensionless variables led the envisaged mathematical model to a physical problem. The numerical solution is then found by engaging MATLAB built-in bvp4c function for non-dimensional velocity, temperature, and homogeneous-heterogeneous reactions. The validation of the proposed mathematical model is ascertained by comparing it with a published article in limiting case. An excellent consensus is accomplished in this regard. The behavior of numerous dimensionless flow variables including solid volume fraction, inertia coefficient, velocity ratio parameter, porosity parameter, slip velocity parameter, magnetic parameter, Schmidt number, and strength of homogeneous/heterogeneous reaction parameters are portrayed via graphical illustrations. Computational iterations for surface drag force are tabulated to analyze the impacts at the stretched surface. It is witnessed that the slip velocity parameter enhances the fluid stream velocity and diminishes the surface drag force. Furthermore, the concentration of the nanofluid flow is augmented for higher estimates of quartic autocatalysis chemical.

In this paper, approximate analytical solution of biochemical reaction model is used by the multi-step differential transform method (MsDTM) based on classical differential transformation method (DTM). Numerical results are compared to those obtained by the fourth-order Runge-Kutta method to illustrate the preciseness and effectiveness of the proposed method. Results are given explicit and graphical form.
