The present study investigates the peristaltic transport of non-Newtonian fluid, modeled as power law and Bingham fluid, in a diverging tube with different wall wave forms: sinusoidal, multi-sinusoidal, triangular, trapezoidal and square waves. Fourier series is employed to get the expressions for temporal and spatial dependent wall shapes. Solutions for time average pressure rise — flow rate r...

Neurofeedback training using ElectroEncephaloGrams (EEGs) is commonly utilized in the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease, and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Recently, BCI (Brain-computer Interface) contents have developed, not for the purpose of treatment, but for concentration improvement or brain relaxation training. However, as each user has different wave forms, it is hard t...

The reference to ethnicity in the 2012 National Suicide Prevention Strategy for England (1) is mainly with regard to promoting mental health in Black and Minority Ethnic (BME) groups. However, there is little detailed information about any specific strategy to reduce suicide rates in BME groups. The Suicide Prevention Strategy and Action Plan for Northern Ireland has only one brief reference re...

differential transform method has been applied to solve many functional equations so far. in this article, we have used this method to solve wave-like equations. differential transform method is capable of reducing the size of computational work. exact solutions can also be achieved by the known forms of the series solutions. some examples are prepared to show theefficiency and simplicity of th...

Continuous multidimensional systems described by partial differential equations can be represented by discrete systems in a number of different ways. However, the relations between the various forms of continuous, semi-continuous, and discrete multidimensional systems do not fit into an established framework like for one-dimensional systems. This paper contributes to the development of such a f...

Generating an artificial blood flow in a circle system is an important step in hemodynamic research; thus, the influence of circle system components on the pulsatile flow wave forms should be investigated. In this study, a circle system was built, in which two solenoid valves were controlled by a timer to transform a constant flow into a pulsatile one, and two customized compliances with five d...
