although there are many excellent ways presenting the principle of the classical calculus, the novel presentations probably leads most naturally to the development of the non-newtonian calculus. the important point to note is that the non-newtonian calculus is a self-contained system independent of any other system of calculus. since this self-contained work is intended for a wide audience, inc...

In an irrotational dust universe, the locally free gravitational field is covariantly described by the gravito-electric and gravito-magnetic tensors Eab and Hab. In Newtonian theory, Hab = 0 and Eab is the tidal tensor. Newtonian-like dust universes in general relativity (i.e. with Hab = 0, often called ‘silent’) have been shown to be inconsistent in general and unlikely to extend beyond the kn...

Non-Newtonian fluid flow in a stenosed coronary bypass is investigated numerically using the Carreau-Yasuda model for the shear thinning behavior of the blood. End-to-side coronary bypass anastomosis is considered in a simplified model geometry where the host coronary artery has a 75% severity stenosis. Different locations of the bypass graft to the stenosis and different flow rates in the graf...

Considerations on implementation of the stress-strain constitutive relations applied in Computational Fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation of cardiovascular flows have been addressed extensively in the literature. However, the matter is yet controversial. The author suggests that the choice of non-Newtonian models and the consideration of non-Newtonian assumption versus the Newtonian assumption is v...

Pulsatile blood flow in an aorta of normal subject is studied by Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations. The main intention of this study is to determine the influence of the non-Newtonian nature of blood on a pulsatile flow through an aorta. The usual Newtonian model of blood viscosity and a nonNewtonian blood model are used to study the velocity distributions, wall pressure and wall s...

This article illustrates the spreading and receding characteristics of non-Newtonian droplets impinging on solid surfaces at different Weber numbers. A xanthan gum solution was used to generate non-Newtonian droplets. From digital images captured using a high speed camera, spreading diameters and dynamic contact angles (DCA) were measured during the impact process. Depending on impact velocity,...

by means of he's homotopy perturbation method (hpm) an approximate solution of velocity eld is derived for the ow in straight pipes of non-newtonian uid obeying the sisko model. the nonlinear equations governing the ow in pipe are for- mulated and analyzed, using homotopy perturbation method due to he. furthermore, the obtained solutions for velocity eld is graphically sketched and compared w...

The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of non-Newtonian blood rheology models on the wall shear stress (WSS) distribution in a cohort of patients-specific coronary arteries. Twenty patients with diseased left anterior descending (LAD) coronary arteries (with varying degrees of stenosis severity from mild to severe) who underwent angiography and in-vivo pressure measurements were se...
