The electro-osmotically modulated hemodynamic across an artery with multiple stenosis is mathematically evaluated. The non-Newtonian behaviour of blood flow is tackled by utilizing Casson fluid model for this flow problem. The blood flow is confined in such arteries due to the presence of stenosis and this theoretical analysis provides the electro-osmotic effects for blood flow through such arteries. The mathematical equations that govern this flow problem are converted into their dimensionless form by using appropriate transformations and then exact mathematical computations are performed by utilizing Mathematica software. The range of the considered parameters is given as [Formula: see text]. The graphical results involve combine study of symmetric and non-symmetric structure for multiple stenosis. Joule heating effects are also incorporated in energy equation together with viscous effects. Streamlines are plotted for electro-kinetic parameter [Formula: see text] and flow rate [Formula: see text]. The trapping declines in size with incrementing [Formula: see text], for symmetric shape of stenosis. But the size of trapping increases for the non-symmetric case.

This paper investigates the magnetic blood flow in an inclined multi-stenosed artery under the influence of a uniformly distributed magnetic field and an oscillating pressure gradient. The blood is modelled using the non-Newtonian Casson fluid model. The governing fractional differential equations are expressed by using the fractional Caputo-Fabrizio derivative without singular kernel. Exact analytical solutions are obtained by using the Laplace and finite Hankel transforms for both velocities. The velocities of blood flow and magnetic particles are graphically presented. It shows that the velocity increases with respect to the Reynolds number and the Casson parameter. Meanwhile, the velocity decreases as the Hartmann number increases. These results are useful for the diagnosis and treatment of certain medical problems.

The shear augmented dispersion of solutes in blood flow (i) through circular tube and (ii) between parallel flat plates is analyzed mathematically, treating blood as Herschel-Bulkley fluid model. The resulting system of nonlinear differential equations are solved with the appropriate boundary conditions, and the expressions for normalized velocity, concentration of the fluid in the core region and outer region, flow rate, and effective axial diffusivity are obtained. It is found that the normalized velocity of blood, relative diffusivity, and axial diffusivity of solutes are higher when blood is modeled by Herschel-Bulkley fluid rather than by Casson fluid model. It is also noted that the normalized velocity, relative diffusivity, and axial diffusivity of solutes are higher when blood flows through circular tube than when it flows between parallel flat plates.

AbstractThe blood flow inside a tube with multi-thromboses is mathematically investigated. The existence of these multiple thromboses restricts the blood flow in this tube and the flow is revamped by using a catheter. This non-Newtonian blood flow problem is modeled for Jeffrey fluid. The energy equation includes a notable effect of viscous dissipation. We have calculated an exact solution for the developed mathematical governing equations. These mathematical equations are solved directly by using Mathematica software. The graphical outcomes are added to discuss the results in detail. The multiple thromboses with increasing heights are evident in streamline graphs. The sinusoidally advancing wave revealed in the wall shear stress graphs consists of crest and trough with varying amplitude. The existence of multi-thrombosis in this tube is the reason for this distinct amplitude of crest and trough. Further, the viscous dissipation effects come out as a core reason for heat production instead of molecular conduction.

In this article, heat and mass transfer analysis on MHD blood flow of Casson fluid model due to peristaltic wave has been investigated. The governing equations of blood flow for Casson fluid model, temperature, and energy equation have been solved by taking the assumption of long wavelength and neglecting the inertial forces. The resulting coupled differential equations have been solved analytically and the exact solutions are presented. The impact of various pertinent parameters is plotted and discussed. It is found that the influence of magnetic field and fluid parameter shows similar behavior on velocity profile while its behavior is opposite for pressure rise and pressure gradient profile. Trapping phenomena have also taken into account by sketching the streamlines. The expression for pressure rise and friction forces are evaluated numerically.

The unsteady free flow of a Casson fluid past an oscillating vertical plate with constant wall temperature has been studied. The Casson fluid model is used to distinguish the non-Newtonian fluid behaviour. The governing partial differential equations corresponding to the momentum and energy equations are transformed into linear ordinary differential equations by using nondimensional variables. Laplace transform method is used to find the exact solutions of these equations. Expressions for shear stress in terms of skin friction and the rate of heat transfer in terms of Nusselt number are also obtained. Numerical results of velocity and temperature profiles with various values of embedded flow parameters are shown graphically and their effects are discussed in detail.
