Cardiovascular diseases, specifically cerebral aneurysms, represent a major cause of morbidity and mortality, having a significant impact on the cost and overall status of health care. In the present work, we employ a haemorheological blood model originally proposed by Owens to investigate the haemodynamics of blood flow through an aneurytic channel. This constitutive equation for whole human blood is derived using ideas drawn from temporary polymer network theory to model the aggregation and disaggregation of erythrocytes in normal human blood at different shear rates. To better understand the effect of rheological models on the haemodynamics of blood flow in cerebral aneurysms we compare our numerical results with those obtained with other rheological models such as the Carreau-Yasuda (C-Y) model. The results show that the velocity profiles for the Newtonian and the Owens models are approximately similar but differ from those of the C-Y model. In order to stabilize our numerical simulations, we propose two new stabilization techniques, the so-called N-Owens and I-Owens methods. Employing the N-Owens stabilization method enables us to capture the effect of erythrocyte aggregation in blood flow through a cerebral aneurysm at higher Weissenberg (We) and Reynolds (Re) numbers than would otherwise be possible.
The biotransport of the intravascular nanoparticle (NP) is influenced by both the complex cellular flow environment and the NP characteristics. Being able to computationally simulate such intricate transport phenomenon with high efficiency is of far-
Various biological processes such as transport of oxygen and nutrients, thrombus formation, vascular angiogenesis and remodeling are related to cellular/subcellular level biological processes, where mesoscopic simulations resolving detailed cell dyna
Sand traps are used to measure Aeolian flux. Since they modify the surrounding wind velocity field their gauging represents an important challenge. We use numerical simulations under the assumption of homogeneous turbulence based on FLUENT to systema
This paper presents a method for calculating the wall shear rate in pipe turbulent flow. It collapses adequately the data measured in laminar flow and turbulent flow into a single flow curve and gives the basis for the design of turbulent flow viscom
We investigate flow of incompressible fluid in a cylindrical tube with elastic walls. The radius of the tube may change along its length. The discussed problem is connected to the blood flow in large human arteries and especially to nonlinear wave pr
