... be attached to the SWCNT. Two cases are considered: These are light or heavy bacteria attached to the nanotube. The problem is solved by the exact solution, the finite difference method, and the Bubnov–Galerkin method. Variation of the fundamental natural frequency with the heavy bacterium/virus...

...I. Elishakoff; C. Versaci; G. Muscolino In this study, the effective stiffness of the double-walled carbon nanotube sensor is determined by both the Bubnov–Galerkin method and the finite difference technique. It is shown that in addition to the familiar expression of the effective stiffness...

..., economical, and convenient to use. With the help of Laplace transforms and the Galerkin method, the expressions for mixed mean concentration, local fluid-wall Sherwood number, logarithmic fluid-wall Sherwood number, local fluid Sherwood number, logarithmic fluid Sherwood number, clearance, and local...
