The present paper considers a biaxial nematogenic lattice model, involving particles of D2h symmetry, whose centres of mass are associated with a three-dimensional simple-cubic lattice; the pair potential is isotropic in orientation space, restricted to nearest neighbours, and has the simplified...

We report here the mean field (MF) and Monte Carlo (MC) simulation study of a nematogenic lattice model; it involves particles possessing D2h symmetry, whose centres of mass are associated with a two-dimensional square lattice, while particle orientations belong to ordinary three-dimensional space;...

The present paper considers a biaxial nematogenic lattice model, involving particles of D2h symmetry, whose centres of mass are associated with a three-dimensional simple-cubic lattice; the pair potential is defined by a London–De Boer–Heller dispersion interaction, restricted to nearest...

We have considered a nematogenic lattice model, consisting of three-component unit vectors, associated with a two-dimensional lattice, and interacting via London–Heller–de Boer dispersion potential restricted to nearest neighbours, already studied by simulation in three dimensions (Mol....

Статья посвящена использованию методов сонохимии в пищевой промышленности. Рассматривается одно из перспективных направлений развития пищевой промышленности...

The use of microencapsulated phase change materials (MPCMs) is one of the most efficient ways of storing thermal energy. When the microencapsulated phase change material (MPCM) is dispersed into the carrier fluid, microencapsulated phase change slurry (MPCS) is prepared. Due to the relatively...

In this paper, a water based suspension containing microencapsulated phase change material (MEPCM) and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) was prepared as a novel heat transfer fluid. Thermal and rheological properties of the sample were obtained experimentally from differential scanning...

Water-soluble polymers are known to be used in chemically enhanced oil recovery (EOR) processes, but their applications are limited in high-temperature and high-salinity oil reservoirs because of their inherent poor salt tolerance and weak thermal stability. Hydrophobic association of partially...

This work deals with the theoretical study of rheological properties of a suspension of micron-sized magnetizable particles in a nanodisperse ferrofluid. In recent years, these systems have been synthesized by several teams in order to enhance technological properties of traditional magnetic...

Formate fluids are considered as one of the most efficient drilling fluids in petroleum industries, especially in shale to minimize the drilling inefficiencies during the operational performances. The objective of this study is to compare the profound impact of sodium and potassium formate...
