A Hydromechanical Perspective to Study the Effect of Body Acceleration through Stenosed Artery

Abstract

The spread of numerous deadly diseases such as Thrombosis, Diabetes, Atherosclerosis and other cardiac diseases, carry on to be major root of demise and growing public curiosity about the prevention and treatment of such fatal disorders. Body acceleration has very important role on the flow through stenosed artery. In this research work a problem for irregular development in the inner wall of the artery is known atherosclerosis that settled as a result of buildup due to cholesterol on the arterial wall has been discussed. In this work the effects of body acceleration, slip velocity in presence of catheter on the wall shear, velocity profile and flow rate reveal the graphical finding for pulsatile blood flow in narrow blood vessels. Here it is shown that flow rate, velocity and shear stress escalate as body acceleration increases.
