Impact of Crustacean Morphology on Metachronal Propulsion: A Numerical Study

Fluids, 2023
Metachrony is defined as coordinated asynchronous movement throughout multiple appendages, such as the cilia of cells and swimmerets of crustaceans. Used by species of crustaceans and microscopic cells to move through fluid, the process of metachronal ...

Investigation of evaporation of sessile droplets using luminescent nano-probes and other applications of NV centers in diamond

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2018
The paper describes application of diamond nano crystals to research on dynamic processes in small (less than 1 mm across) evaporating droplets deposited on a solid substrate. Such droplets are used as a model system for testing proposed bio applications

Activation Energy and Inclination Magnetic Dipole Influences on Carreau Nanofluid Flowing via Cylindrical Channel with an Infinite Shearing Rate

Applied Sciences, 2022
Background: The infinite shear viscosity model of Carreau fluid characterizes the attitude of fluid flow at a very high/very low shear rate. This model has the capacity for interpretation of fluid at both extreme levels, and an inclined magnetic dipole ...

The biomechanics of atherosclerosis development

Computer Assisted Methods in Engineering and Science, 2023
In this paper, we investigate the bio-mechanics of atherosclerosis development in human physiology. Blood is modelled as an incompressible fluid of variable viscosity flowing in a slightly diverging channel (i.e. large artery) of small aspect ratio [15].

Non-Similar Solution of G-jitter Induced Unsteady Magnetohydrodynamic Radiative Slip Flow of Nanofluid

Applied Sciences, 2020
We present a mathematical model and numerical simulation of the unsteady 2-D g-jitter-free and forced the convective flow of water-based nanofluid from a flat plate, considering both the velocity slip and thermal slip conditions imposed on the wall of ...

Multi Agent/Object Simulation in Human Swimming

Journal of Biomechanical Science and Engineering, 2010
In human swimming, there are many situations in which the target of the analysis is not only the swimmer but also other swimmers or other equipment, such as synchronized swimming by multiple swimmers, swimming with fins, and so on.
