Blood Flow Modeling in Constricted Arteries Under Body Acceleration and Wall Slip Using Two-Layered Bingham Plastic Fluid

Analysis is done on a two-layered Bingham Plastic model of restricted, thin arteries with periodic body acceleration. The model essentially consists of a centre layer with a core of suspended red blood cells and an outer layer with a peripheral plasma layer. It has been assumed that the rheology of blood in the core region has been classified as a Newtonian fluid with the PPL and a non-Newtonian fluid obeying the law of Bingham plastic model. This model has been used to investigate how blood flow in stenotic arteries is affected by body acceleration, the non-Newtonian character of blood, and a velocity slip at the wall. Analytical equations for axial velocity, flow rate, wall shear stress, and apparent viscosity are produced by using the perturbation method, and their variations with respect to various parameters are shown in the figures and explained in this article. Due to a wall slip, it is seen that while velocity and flow rate rise, effective viscosity falls. The impact of body acceleration significantly increases flow rates and speed. The physiological effects of this theoretical modelling for blood flow conditions are also briefly looked at.
