Unsteady oscillatory flow of generalized Burgers’ fluid in a circular channel tube in the porous medium is investigated under the influence of time-dependent trapezoidal pressure gradient given by an infinite Fourier series. An exact analytical expression for the solution for the fluid velocity and the shear stress are recovered by using the similarity arguments together with the integral trans...

The branch of fluid mechanics is also familiar with biomechanics recently. The combination of hydrodynamic and mechanical specification of the flow can reach the complex description of the liquid flow in the hydraulic system. The hydraulic system can represent the airways and ventilation system, and external blood circulation. An important role in the study of hemo-transport has its interaction...

This study of aortic root flow velocity profiles suggests that the flow velocity pattern is parabolic rather than flat as has been widely supposed. To analyze the distribution of flow velocity, a special ultrasound pulsed Doppler velocity flow meter, with a direct probe on the aortic wall, was designed. Sixteen patients, none with a diagnosis of aortic valve disease, were examined just before u...

OBJECTIVE To analyse profiles of coronary artery flow velocity at rest in patients with aortic stenosis and to determine whether changes of the coronary artery flow velocities are related to symptoms in patients with aortic stenosis. DESIGN A prospective study investigating the significance of aortic valve area, pressure gradient across the aortic valve, systolic left ventricular wall stress ...

This article presents the effect of heat and mass transfer on the blood flow through a tapered stenosed artery assuming blood as a Jeffrey fluid model. The equations governing the blood flow is modeled in cylindrical co-ordinates. Analytical solutions are constructed for the velocity, temperature, concentration and flux by solving flow governing non-linear coupled equations using Homotopy Pertu...

in this paper, least square method (lsm) and differential transformation method (dtm) are used to solve the problem of laminar nanofluid flow in a semi-porous channel in the presence of transverse magnetic field. due to existence some shortcomings in each method, a novel and efficient method named ls-dtm is introduced which omitted those defects and has an excellent agreement with numerical sol...

The need to accurately measure flow profiles in microfluidic channels is well recognised. In this work, we present a new optical feedback interferometry (OFI) flow sensor that accurately measures local velocity in fluids and enables reconstruction of a velocity profile inside a microchannel. OFI is a self-aligned interferometric technique that uses the laser as both the transmitter and the rece...

Cytoplasmic streaming (CPS) is well known to assist the movement of nutrients, organelles and genetic material by transporting all of the cytoplasmic contents of a cell. CPS is generated by motility organelles that are driven by motor proteins near a membrane surface, where the CPS has been found to have a flat velocity profile in the flow field according to the sliding theory. There is a consi...

An inverse problem associated with the mass transport of a material concentration down a pipe where the flowing non-Newtonian medium has a two-dimensional velocity profile is examined. The problem of determining the two-dimensional fluid velocity profile from temporally varying cross-sectional average concentration measurements at upstream and downstream locations is considered. The special cas...
