This comparative study inspects the heat transfer characteristics of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) nanofluid flow. The model employed is a two-phase fluid flow model. Water is utilized as the base fluid, and zinc and titanium oxide ( and ) are used as two different types of nanoparticles. The rotation of nanofluid is considered along the z-axis, with velocity . A similarity transformation is used to transform the leading structure of partial differential equations to ordinary differential equations. By using a powerful mathematical BVP-4C technique, numerical results are obtained. This study aims to describe the possessions of different constraints on temperature and velocity for rotating nanofluid with a magnetic effect. The outcomes for the rotating nanofluid flow and heat transference properties for both types of nanoparticles are highlighted with the help of graphs and tables. The impact of physical concentrations such as heat transference rates and coefficients of skin friction are examined. It is noted that rotation increases the heat flux and decreases skin friction. In this comparative study, -water nanofluid was demonstrated to be a worthy heat transporter as compared to -water nanofluid.
The soliton waves’ physical behavior on the pseudo spherical surfaces is studied through the analytical solutions of the nonlinear (1+1)–dimensional Kaup–Kupershmidt equation. This model is named after Boris Abram Kupershmidt and David J. Kaup. This model has been used in various branches such as fluid dynamics, nonlinear optics, and plasma physics. The model’s computational solutions are obtained by employing two recent analytical methods. Additionally, the solutions’ accuracy is checked by comparing the analytical and approximate solutions. The soliton waves’ characterizations are illustrated by some sketches such as polar, spherical, contour, two, and three-dimensional plots. The paper’s novelty is shown by comparing our obtained solutions with those previously published of the considered model.

This particular research was conducted with the aim of describing the impact of a rotating nanoliquid on an elasting surface. This specific study was carried out using a two-phase nanoliquid model. In this study engine oil is used as the base fluid, and two forms of nanoparticles are used, namely, titanium oxide and zinc oxide (TiO2 and ZnO). Using appropriate similarity transformations, the arising system of partial differential equations and the related boundary conditions are presented and then converted into a system of ordinary differential equations. These equations are numerically tackled using powerful techniques. Graphs for nanoparticle rotation parameter and volume fraction for both types of nanoparticles present the results for the velocity and heat transfer features. Quantities of physical significance are measured and evaluated, such as local heat flux intensity and local skin friction coefficients at the linear stretching surface. Numerical values for skin friction and local heat flux amplitude are determined in the presence of slip factor.
Within this article, the nonlinear vibration control of the rotor active magnetic bearings system is tackled utilizing the integral resonant controller for the first time. Two integral resonant controllers are proposed to mitigate the system lateral oscillations in the horizontal and vertical directions. Based on the suggested control technique, the whole system dynamical model is derived as a two-degree-of-freedom nonlinear system (i.e., rotor system) coupled linearly to two first-order filters (i.e., the integral resonant controllers). The nonlinear autonomous system that governs the oscillation amplitudes of the controlled system as a function of the control parameters is extracted by applying perturbation analysis. The obtained autonomous system showed that the linear damping coefficients of the rotor system are functions of the control gains, feedback gains, and internal loop feedback gains of the coupled controller. Accordingly, the sensitivity of the rotor oscillation amplitudes to the different control parameters is explored. The stability margins and the optimal control gains are reported via plotting the different stability charts in two-dimensional space. The main acquired results demonstrated that the vibration suppression efficiency of the proposed controller is proportional to the product of both the control and feedback signal gains, and inversely proportional to the square of the internal loop feedback gains. In addition, the analytical investigations confirmed that the proposed integral resonant control method can force the rotor system to respond as a linear one with a single periodic attractor when the control parameters are designed properly. Finally, numerical simulations are performed that have illustrated the excellent correspondence with the obtained analytical results.
