Summary: This study investigates the thermal performance of a moving porous fin wetted with hybrid nanofluid with different cross-sections in the presence of a magnetic field. Three different cross-sections (trapezoidal, concave parabolic, and convex) are used as an innovation. The impact of various characteristics on the dimensionless temperature is thoroughly examined, and the results show that Akbari-Ganji's method has good accuracy in solving heat transfer equations related to moving porous fin.

Summary: The impact dynamics experiments on gas-bearing coal revealed that reflected energy was generally higher than transmission energy but smaller than incident energy under different loading conditions. Elastic deformation and dissipative energy experienced specific evolutionary trends with time regardless of loading conditions, and the impact of static load and gas pressure on dissipative energy was significant.

Summary: This study presents an analysis of the Marangoni convection flow of hybrid nanomaterials in an infinite porous disk. The hybrid nanomaterials consist of gamma ALOOH and AA7075 nanoparticles, and gasoline oil is used as the base liquid. The Darcy-Forchheimer law is employed and the thermal field on the disk surface is assumed to vary quadratically. The effects of irregular heat source, radiation, and dissipation are also taken into account. The system is dimensionless using Von Kamran variables and the NDsolver scheme is used to approximate the reduced system. Various physical variables such as surface temperature gradient, temperature, and velocity are analyzed through graphs and tables. It is found that hybrid nanomaterials exhibit the highest thermal conductivity compared to traditional liquid and nanoliquid.

Summary: The study focuses on the impact of magnetohydrodynamic Casson fluid flow across a convective surface with cross diffusion, chemical reaction, and non-linear radiative heat. By converting the governing flow equations into non-dimensional form, the research found that an increase in Sorret number leads to a decrease in temperature and an increase in concentration, while the Dufour number has a negative impact. Additionally, an intensification of the non-linear radiative parameter results in a decrement in Nusselt number and an enhancement in Sherwood number.
