This study investigated the significance of symmetry and non-symmetry stenosis effects of blood flow and quantifies some of the most relevant non Newtonian characteristics of blood flow in blood vessels. The models studied in this work are the Newtonian and Non-Newtonian (Oldroyd-B) models, as well as their generalized (shear-thinning) modifications. The governing system of equations is based o...

rheological characteristics of al2o3, cuo and tio2 nano particles were investigated in oil asthe base fluid at 1 and 2 wt.%. constitutive relations for non-newtonian fluid were discussedbased on the power-law model. measured viscosities of each nanofluid were used to evaluatethe power-law and consistency index. results indicated that the nanofluid viscosity decreasedby increasing the concentrat...

this study was aimed at evaluating the flow behavior characteristics of yogurt enriched with fish oil (fo) microcapsules prepared by complex coacervation method. fo was microencapsulated in gelatin-acacia gum coacervates. then, the microcapsules were dried, and yogurt was produced from the milk enriched with microcapsules powder. rheological characteristics (as measured using a rotational visco...

The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of non-Newtonian blood rheology models on the wall shear stress (WSS) distribution in a cohort of patients-specific coronary arteries. Twenty patients with diseased left anterior descending (LAD) coronary arteries (with varying degrees of stenosis severity from mild to severe) who underwent angiography and in-vivo pressure measurements were se...

Carotid siphon is known as one of the risky sites among the human intracranial arteries, which is prone to formation of atherosclerotic lesions. Indeed, scientists believe that accumulation of low density lipoprotein (LDL) inside the lumen is the major cause of atherosclerosis. To this aim, three types of internal carotid artery (ICA) siphon have been constructed to examine variations of hemody...

We discuss non-relativistic scattering by a Newtonian potential. We show that the gray-body factors associated with scattering by a black hole exhibit the same functional dependence as scattering amplitudes in the Newtonian limit, which should be the weak-field limit of any quantum theory of gravity. This behavior arises independently of the presence of supersymmetry. The connection to two-dime...

the excellent performance of fluidized bed heat exchangers is due to the interaction between particles and heat transfer surface and to the mixing effects in the viscous sublayer. in this paper, the results of experimental investigations on heat transfer for a wide range of newtonian and non-newtonian (shear-thinning power law) fluids are presented. new design equations have been developed for ...

Using Newtonian molecular dynamics we study a gas of inelastic hard disks subject to shear between two planar parallel thermal walls. The system behaves like a Couette flow and it is tuned to produce a steady state that ideally has uniform temperature, uniform density, no energy flux and a linear velocity profile for restitution coefficient in the wide range: 0:3prp1. It is shown that Navier–St...
