The elasto-inertial effects on particle focusing in a square-tube flow were investigated experimentally and numerically. Microscale experiments using spherical particles in dilute polymer solutions demonstrated that the particles are focused on the midline and/or the diagonal in a downstream cross-section, depending on the polymer concentration. Numerical computations based on the FENE-P model for the viscoelastic flow reproduced these focusing patterns. It was revealed that the transitions among the patterns are accounted for by the elastic forces due to the first normal stress difference and the polymer elongation, which are the essentials of the viscoelastic fluid.

A flow vessel with an elastic wall can deform significantly due to viscous fluid flow within it, even at vanishing Reynolds number (no fluid inertia). Deformation leads to an enhancement of throughput due to the change in cross-sectional area. The la
tter gives rise to a non-constant pressure gradient in the flow-wise direction and, hence, to a nonlinear flow rate--pressure drop relation (unlike the Hagen--Poiseuille law for a rigid tube). Many biofluids are non-Newtonian, and are well approximated by generalized Newtonian (say, power-law) rheological models. Consequently, we analyze the problem of steady low Reynolds number flow of a generalized Newtonian fluid through a slender elastic tube by coupling fluid lubrication theory to a structural problem posed in terms of Donnell shell theory. A perturbative approach (in the slenderness parameter) yields analytical solutions for both the flow and the deformation. Using matched asymptotics, we obtain a uniformly valid solution for the tubes radial displacement, which features both a boundary layer and a corner layer caused by localized bending near the clamped ends. In doing so, we obtain a ``generalized Hagen--Poiseuille law for soft microtubes. We benchmark the mathematical predictions against three-dimensional two-way coupled direct numerical simulations (DNS) of flow and deformation performed using the commercial computational engineering platform by ANSYS. The simulations show good agreement and establish the range of validity of the theory. Finally, we discuss the implications of the theory on the problem of the flow-induced deformation of a blood vessel, which is featured in some textbooks.
In this chapter, we analyze the steady-state microscale fluid--structure interaction (FSI) between a generalized Newtonian fluid and a hyperelastic tube. Physiological flows, especially in hemodynamics, serve as primary examples of such FSI phenomena
. The small scale of the physical system renders the flow field, under the power-law rheological model, amenable to a closed-form solution using the lubrication approximation. On the other hand, negligible shear stresses on the walls of a long vessel allow the structure to be treated as a pressure vessel. The constitutive equation for the microtube is prescribed via the strain energy functional for an incompressible, isotropic Mooney--Rivlin material. We employ both the thin- and thick-walled formulations of the pressure vessel theory, and derive the static relation between the pressure load and the deformation of the structure. We harness the latter to determine the flow rate--pressure drop relationship for non-Newtonian flow in thin- and thick-walled soft hyperelastic microtubes. Through illustrative examples, we discuss how a hyperelastic tube supports the same pressure load as a linearly elastic tube with smaller deformation, thus requiring a higher pressure drop across itself to maintain a fixed flow rate.
We study fluid-structure interactions (FSIs) in a long and shallow microchannel, conveying a non-Newtonian fluid, at steady state. The microchannel has a linearly elastic and compliant top wall, while its three other walls are rigid. The fluid flowin
g inside the microchannel has a shear-dependent viscosity described by the power-law rheological model. We employ lubrication theory to solve for the flow problem inside the long and shallow microchannel. For the structural problem, we employ two plate theories, namely Kirchhoff-Love theory of thin plates and Reissner-Mindlin first-order shear deformation theory. The hydrodynamic pressure couples the flow and deformation problem by acting as a distributed load onto the soft top wall. Within our perturbative (lubrication theory) approach, we determine the relationship between flow rate and the pressure gradient, which is a nonlinear first-order ordinary differential equation for the pressure. From the solution of this differential equation, all other quantities of interest in non-Newtonian microchannel FSIs follow. Through illustrative examples, we show the effect of FSI coupling strength and the plate thickness on the pressure drop across the microchannel. Through direct numerical simulation of non-Newtonian microchannel FSIs using commercial computational engineering tools, we benchmark the prediction from our mathematical prediction for the flow rate-pressure drop relation and the structural deformation profile of the top wall. In doing so, we also establish the limits of applicability of our perturbative theory.
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
opagation due to the pulsations of the heart. The long-wave approximation for modeling of waves in blood is applied. The obtained model Korteweg-deVries equation possessing a variable coefficient is reduced to a nonlinear dynamical system of 3 first order differential equations. The low probability of arising of a solitary wave is shown. Periodic wave solutions of the model system of equations are studied and it is shown that the waves that are consequence of the irregular heart pulsations may be modeled by a sequence of parts of such periodic wave solutions.
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
