Metachronal wave analysis for non-Newtonian fluid inside a symmetrical channel with ciliated walls

The main purpose of this article is to present a metachronal wave analysis for non-Newtonian fluid inside a symmetrical channel with ciliated walls. The governing equations of Sisko fluid for the two dimensional channel are simplified using the low Reynolds number and long wave-length approximations...
