The inherent irreversibility in a steady hydromagnetic permeable channel flow of a conducting fluid with variable electrical conductivity and asymmetric Navier slip at the channel walls in the presence of induced electric field is theoretically investigated. The model nonlinear governing equations are obtained and numerically solved using shooting quadrature. Numerical results for velocity and temperature profiles are utilised to compute the entropy generation number and the Bejan number. Pertinent results are displayed graphically and discussed quantitatively.

Age-related macular degeneration and retinitis pigmentosa are the most countered eye diseases that damage photoreceptors and cause to lose the visual sense. To regain the visual sense, studies are focused on the electrical stimulation of nerve cells remain intact. The electrical stimulation is carried out with the electrode arrays that include a certain number of stimulation electrodes and a common return electrode. In this study, the retinal stimulation is modelled using a computational model to investigate stimulation performance depending on the return electrode position and its geometrical properties. Stimulation induced electric field, current density and temperature over the retinal tissue are examined. It is seen that closer placement of return electrode and stimulation electrodes causes high electric field intensity and current density between electrodes, which is quite risky for long term chronic implementation by the reason of the increase in the temperature beyond the safe limits. It is concluded that there is an indispensability for the distances, three to five times of the electrode diameter, between electrodes to avoid electrode corrosion and tissue damage.
