Abstract
This paper investigates the mobility of cilia in a non-uniform tapered channel in the presence of an induced magnetic field and heat transfer. Thermal radiation effects are included in the heat transfer analysis. The Jeffrey model is a simpler linear model that uses time derivatives rather than convected derivatives as the Oldroyd-B model does; it depicts rheology other than Newtonian. The Jeffrey fluid model is used to investigate the rheology of a fluid with cilia motion. The proposed model examines the behavior of physiological fluids passing through non-uniform channels, which is responsible for symmetrical wave propagation and is commonly perceived between the contraction and expansion of concentric muscles. To formulate the mathematical modeling, the lubrication approach is used for momentum, energy, and magnetic field equations. The formulated linear but coupled differential equations have been solved analytically. Graphs for velocity profile, magnetic force function, induced magnetic field, current density, pressure rise, and heat profile are presented to describe the physical mechanisms of significant parameters. It is found that the eccentricity parameter of the cilia equations opposes the velocity and the magnetic force functions. The thermal radiation decreases the temperature profile while it increases for Prandtl and Eckert numbers. A promising impact of the magnetic Reynolds number and electric field on the current density profile is also observed.

Abstract
The paper theoretically investigates the heat transfer of nanofluids with different nanoparticles inside a parallel-plate channel. Second-order slip condition is adopted due to the microscopic roughness in the microchannels. After proper transformation, nonlinear partial differential systems are converted to ordinary differential equations with unknown constants, and then solved by homotopy analysis method. The residual plot is drawn to verify the convergence of the solution. The semi-analytical expressions between NuB and NBT are acquired. The results show that both first-order slip parameter and second-order slip parameter have positive effects on NuB of the MHD flow. The effect of second-order velocity slip on NuB is obvious, and NuB in the alumina–water nanofluid is higher than that in the titania–water nanofluid. The positive correlation between slip parameters and Ndp is significant for the titania–water nanofluid.

On Generalized Fourier’s and Fick’s Laws in Bio-Convection Flow of Magnetized Burgers’ Nanofluid Utilizing Motile Microorganisms. MATHEMATICS 2020.

Abstract
This article describes the features of bio-convection and motile microorganisms in magnetized Burgers’ nanoliquid flows by stretchable sheet. Theory of Cattaneo–Christov mass and heat diffusions is also discussed. The Buongiorno phenomenon for nanoliquid motion in a Burgers’ fluid is employed in view of the Cattaneo–Christov relation. The control structure of governing partial differential equations (PDEs) is changed into appropriate ordinary differential equations (ODEs) by suitable transformations. To get numerical results of nonlinear systems, the bvp4c solver provided in the commercial software MATLAB is employed. Numerical and graphical data for velocity, temperature, nanoparticles concentration and microorganism profiles are obtained by considering various estimations of prominent physical parameters. Our computations depict that the temperature field has direct relation with the thermal Biot number and Burgers’ fluid parameter. Here, temperature field is enhanced for growing estimations of thermal Biot number and Burgers’ fluid parameter.

Abstract
The hybrid nanofluid under the influence of magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) is a new interest in the industrial sector due to its applications, such as in solar water heating and scraped surface heat exchangers. Thus, the present study accentuates the analysis of an unsteady three-dimensional MHD non-axisymmetric Homann stagnation point flow of a hybrid Al2O3-Cu/H2O nanofluid with stability analysis. By employing suitable similarity transformations, the governing mathematical model in the form of the partial differential equations are simplified into a system of ordinary differential equations. The simplified mathematical model is then solved numerically by the Matlab solver bvp4c function. This solving approach was proficient in generating more than one solution when good initial guesses were provided. The numerical results presented significant influences on the rate of heat transfer and fluid flow characteristics of a hybrid nanofluid. The rate of heat transfer and the trend of the skin friction coefficient improve with the increment of the nanoparticles’ concentration and the magnetic parameter; however, they deteriorate when the unsteadiness parameter increases. In contrast, the ratio of the escalation of the ambient fluid strain rate to the plate was able to adjourn the boundary layer separation. The dual solutions (first and second solutions) are obtainable when the surface of the sheet shrunk. A stability analysis is carried out to justify the stability of the dual solutions, and hence the first solution is seen as physically reliable and stable, while the second solution is unstable.
