Numerical Simulations of the Transport of Newtonian and Non-newtonian Fluids via Peristaltic Motion
Two geometrical models are developed to simulate fluid transport via peristaltic motion in tubes of uniform or linearly decreasing radius: A 2-D axisymmetric tubular model and a 2-D axisymmetric conical model. In both models, peristaltic motion is induced by a traveling wave along the wall of the co...
