The present thesis deals with a mathematical study of ciliary induced flows of various non- Newtonian fluids through a planar channel and in an axially symmetric tube. The main motivation of the present research work is concerned with an investigation of the propulsion mechanics of ciliary induced flows of some biological fluids through certain physiological systems of the human body. In particular, we want to study the role.of ciliary movement in the transport of spermatic fluids through the ductuli efferentes of male reproduction system in the human beings through mathematical modeling. The spermatic fluids or the efferent duct materials are assumed as Casson, Carreau, micropolar, hydromagnetic conducting Newtonian fluids and the geometry of the ductus efferentes of the human male reproduction system is approximated with a planar channel of uniform dimensions and an axially symmetric uniform cylinderical tube. The mathematical equations governing the flow of the present problem are formulated in Cartesian and axisymmetric cylindrical coordinate systems. These are highly nonlinear and coupled partial differential equations. However, implication of the well known creeping flow approximation along with the long wavelength assumption permits us to obtain closed form exact solutions for the resulting simplifying system of equations governing the flow problems. This is a valid approach for the low Reynolds number flows and is widely used in the literature of physiological dynamics. The flow is produced under the action of ciliary beating that generates a metachronal wave and the analysis is made in the wave frame travelling at the speed of metachronal wave in the direction of flow. Exact solutions for velocity components, axial. pressure.gradient and the stream. function are obtained. For Carreau fluid model the governing system of equations is.reduced to a.system of nonlinear but ordinary differential equations by employing the creeping flow i.e., the low Reynolds number assumption along with the long wavelength approximation. In this case, we utilize the well known regular perturbation method to tackle the nonlinear.terms of the governing system of equations. Consequently, series form solutions for the stream.function, the velocity.distributions and the pressure.gradient are computed. In last two chapters, we have investigated the magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) effects on the ciliary induced flows by assuming that the efferent duct material is a conducting fluid. The applications of magnetohydrodynamics principles in physiological-type flows have been the subject of intensive research and study during the last few years. The study of MHD effects on the flow of spermatic fluids through the ductus efferents is a relatively new aspect of the problem. We have studied the problem theoretically through a mathematical model. The quantities of physical interest like the pumping characteristics, the ciliary trapping phenomenon, the axial pressure gradient, the velocity distribution and the volume flow rates are discussed in this study. Extensive analytical and numerical computations are carried out to obtain the results of various flow characteristics of physiological interest. The influence of pertinent parameters on the analytical results obtained by these models are analyzed and discussed through graphs. The numerical values of the volumetric flow rate obtained by the proposed models of our study are ix also compared with the experimentally estimated value of the flow rate of the human semen, 6´10-3 mlh . This estimated value was suggested by Lardner and Shack [1] in human based on the flow rates in the ductus efferentes in the other animals, e.g., rat, ram and bull. These values are found to be in excellent agreement with the estimated value as compared to the value obtained by the Newtonian model of Lardner and Shack which was0.12´10-3 mlh-1 .

ڈاکٹر عبدالرب عرفان

آہ ڈاکٹر عبدالرّب عرفان!
قارئین معارف کو یہ سن کر بڑا افسوس ہوگا کہ ڈاکٹر عبدالرب عرفان ۳۰؍ اپریل کو انتقال کرگئے، وہ معارف کے بڑے قدر دانوں اور خاص مضمون نگار اور دارالمصنفین شبلی اکیڈمی سے گہرا تعلق رکھتے تھے، اردو، فارسی کے عالم اور ان زبانوں کی ادبیات کی تاریخ سے اچھی واقفیت رکھتے تھے، ہندوستان کے عہد اسلامی کی تاریخ پر ان کی نظر تھی، اس عہد کے سلاطین و مشائخ اور علماء و فضلاء کے حالات و تراجم سے ان کو بڑی دلچسپی تھی اور اس پر ان کے مضامین ملک کے بلند پایہ رسالوں میں شائع ہوتے تھے مگر معارف پر ان کی نظر عنایت زیادہ تھی۔ اس شمارے میں بھی ان کا ایک مضمون شامل ہے اور ابھی دو ایک اور مضامین میری فائل میں ہوں گے۔
میری ان کی ملاقات کبھی نہیں ہوئی مگر خط و کتابت رہتی تھی، ان کے خطوط سے اندازہ ہوتا تھا کہ ان کے دل میں میری کتنی قدر و محبت اور معارف سے ان کو کیسا والہانہ لگاؤ تھا۔ مجھے ان کے حالات زندگی سے کوئی واقفیت نہیں تھی ان کے ایک ہم وطن جناب فیروز حیدری کے خط سے معلوم ہوا کہ انہوں نے کامٹی کے ایم۔ایم ربانی ہائی اسکول سے میٹرک کا امتحان امتیازی نمبر سے پاس کیا تھا۔ اور مارس کالج ناگپور سے بی۔اے کیا تھا۔ پھر فارسی زبان و ادب میں ایم۔اے میں امتیازی نمبر ہی نہیں بلکہ گولڈ میڈل کے بھی حق دار قرار پائے تھے، ۱۹۶۱؁ء میں ودبھ مہاودیالیہ امراؤتی میں فارسی کے استاد کی حیثیت سے ان کا تقرر ہوا اور بہت جلد شعبہ فارسی کے صدر بنائے گئے، ۱۹۸۲؁ء میں ان کا تبادلہ ناگپور میں وسنت راؤناٹک گورنمنٹ انسٹی ٹیوٹ آف آرٹس اینڈ سوشل سائنسز (سابق مارس کالج) ہوگیا۔ ڈاکٹر عبدالرب عرفان طبعاً شریف، سادہ مزاج،...

Contemporary Curriculum Design for Higher Education: An Islamic Appraisal

Education is a key to developing positivity in human beings. It helps to become a good citizen. In Islam, education has a central role that every Muslim must seek. Islamic education is centered on the teaching of the Quran and the Sunnah of the Holy Prophet (PBUH). The Quran is revealed in Arabic, therefore sources of the teachings of Islam are in Arabic. It is the religious duty of the Muslim Ummah to learn Arabic and have command in it. The Quran is the only Book that provides complete guidance to humanity, whether the matters related to social life, economic matters, political issues, or religious life. Keeping this in view, the curriculum should also be prepared in the light of the teachings of the Quran and the Sunnah of the Holy Prophet (PBUH). Focusing on the contemporary curriculum design for Islamic studies for higher education, this paper describes the missing material in the existing curriculum and suggests that the use of modern resources, arranging conferences, and an expansive transformative framework for Islamic studies are the key tools for its implementation. It stresses the curricular designers to approach the existing curriculum more comprehensively which covers Islamic Law, comparative studies, contemporary trends in world traditions, peace dialogue, and practical involvement of students too. This goal can be gained through amendments or revising the existing curriculum. The outcome of it will results in students' critical thinking, positivity, comprehensive knowledge, language proficiency, and character building.

Design of Efficient Adaptive Beamforming Algorithms for Novel Mimo Architectures

The major issue in the mobile communication is the presence of several types of im- pairments in the wireless medium. There are many types of impairments, the important one is refer to as fading which is defined as the interference occurred in the received signal because of its multiple copies arrived through multi paths. It creates considerable changes in receive signal power and therefore counted as significantly destructive in nature. Fading introduces significant distortion and disturbances in almost all wireless radio signal. The major cause of the fading is multipath propagation of the signals and the relative movement of mobile transmitting and/or receiving device. The cancellation of fading effect is essential to achieve higher data rate and better ser- vice quality with similar radiating power and/or bandwidth. Diversity is one of the im- portant techniques to reduce the effect of fading. In order to achieve different diversity types multiple input multiple output antenna array is employed. If a switchable or movable beam pattern is connected to multiple input multiple output (MIMO) antenna system; the system is referred to as smart system. In order to perform xivthis function, smart antenna requires certain signal processing and adaptive computa- tion. Such adaptive computations are performed through some algorithms known as adaptive beamforming algorithms. This dissertation develops three novel MIMO beamforming architecture using decision directed mode in order to exploit spatial and temporal diversities. Moreover, we pro- posed three new adaptive beamforming algorithms for fast convergence and high beam gain. The simulation results prove their effectiveness over other available algorithms and architectures.
