Newtonian and Non-Newtonian Blood Flow Simulation after Arterial Stenosis- Steady State and Pulsatile Approaches

Arterial stenosis, for example Atherosclerosis, is one of the most serious forms of arterial disease in the formation of which hemodynamic factors play a significant role. In the present study, a 3-D rigid carotid artery with axisymmetric stenosis with 75% reduction in cross-sectional area is considered. Laminar blood flow is assumed to have both Newtonian and non-Newtonian behavior (generalize...

Non-Newtonian thin films with normal stresses: dynamics and spreading.

The dynamics of a thin film on a horizontal solid substrate is investigated in the case of non-Newtonian fluids exhibiting normal stress differences, the rheology of which is strongly non-linear. Two coupled equations of evolution for the thickness of the film and the shear rate are proposed within the lubrication approximation. This framework is applied to the motion of an advancing contact li...

Numerical Simulation of Non-Newtonian Inelastic Flows in Channel based on Artificial Compressibility Method

In this study, inelastic constitutive modelling is considered for the simulation of shear-thinning fluids through a circular channel. Numerical solutions are presented for power-law inelastic model, considering axisymmetric Poiseuille flow through a channel. The numerical simulation of such fluid is performed by using the Galerkin finite element approach based on artificial compression method (...

Numerical Simulation of Primary Atomization of Non-Newtonian Impinging Jets

Newtonian impinging jets have been investigated for decades. However, limited is known about non-Newtonian impinging jets. The present work attempts to improve this situation by performing high-fidelity numerical simulations of non-Newtonian impinging jet dynamics. Emphasis is placed on the near field of the liquid sheet formed by the impingement of two shear-thinning (viscosity deceases with i...
