An Optimistic Solver for the Mathematical Model of the Flow of Johnson Segalman Fluid on the Surface of an Infinitely Long Vertical Cylinder

Abstract

In this paper, a novel soft computing technique is designed to analyze the mathematical model of the steady thin film flow of Johnson–Segalman fluid on the surface of an infinitely long vertical cylinder used in the drainage system by using artificial neural networks (ANNs). The approximate series solutions are constructed by Legendre polynomials and a Legendre polynomial-based artificial neural networks architecture (LNN) to approximate solutions for drainage problems. The training of designed neurons in an LNN structure is carried out by a hybridizing generalized normal distribution optimization (GNDO) algorithm and sequential quadratic programming (SQP). To investigate the capabilities of the proposed LNN-GNDO-SQP algorithm, the effect of variations in various non-Newtonian parameters like Stokes number (St), Weissenberg number (We), slip parameters (a), and the ratio of viscosities (ϕ) on velocity profiles of the of steady thin film flow of non-Newtonian Johnson–Segalman fluid are investigated. The results establish that the velocity profile is directly affected by increasing Stokes and Weissenberg numbers while the ratio of viscosities and slip parameter inversely affects the fluid’s velocity profile. To validate the proposed technique’s efficiency, solutions and absolute errors are compared with reference solutions calculated by RK-4 (ode45) and the Genetic algorithm-Active set algorithm (GA-ASA). To study the stability, efficiency and accuracy of the LNN-GNDO-SQP algorithm, extensive graphical and statistical analyses are conducted based on absolute errors, mean, median, standard deviation, mean absolute deviation, Theil’s inequality coefficient (TIC), and error in Nash Sutcliffe efficiency (ENSE). Statistics of the performance indicators are approaching zero, which dictates the proposed algorithm’s worth and reliability.

“…In addition, the effects of Joule heating and radiation on temperature distribution along with the constant vertical magnetic field B 0 are applied. The basic governing equations are as follows [32,33]: ∂v ∂y…”

“…ANN-based models have been extensively used to study the approximate solutions of various problems arising in engineering and applied sciences [24,33,35]. The mathematical model for solutions of the steady two-phase flow of a nanofluid in the duct is given by a feed-forward ANN in the form of continuous mapping, which is defined as…”

Heat Transfer Analysis of Nanofluid Flow in a Rotating System with Magnetic Field Using an Intelligent Strength Stochastic-Driven Approach

“…Recently, stochastic meta-heuristic and heuristic techniques have been developed to solve a variety of non-linear system problems, such as imbibition phenomena [35,36], bath of wire by Oldroyd 8-constant fluid [37], electrohydrodynamic (EHD) fluid flow analysis with an ion drag configuration in a circular cylindrical conduit [38], the flow of non-Newtonian Johnson-Segalman fluid [39], chaos-based secure wireless communications [40,41], and thermal engineering problems [42,43]. These recent studies on stochastic techniques motivated the authors to incorporate and exploit the strength of artificial neural networks with optimization techniques to study the heat transfer of two-phase nanofluid flow subjected to a magnetic field.…”

A Robustness Temperature Inversion Method for Cable Straight Joints Based on Improved Sparrow Search Algorithm Optimized BPNN

“…Tuerxun et al [32] mixed SSA and SVM to improve the accuracy of wind turbines fault diagnosis. There are more other improved models [33], [36]- [38]. Although earlier research has increased the algorithm's accuracy and speed of convergence, the global search and local development capabilities of SSA, a recently developed swarm intelligence algorithm, remain uneven and the system is still prone to falling into the local optimum.…”
