Exact solution of cilia induced flow of a Jeffrey fluid in an inclined tube. [PDF]

Springerplus, 2016
The present study investigated the cilia induced flow of MHD Jeffrey fluid through an inclined tube. This study is carried out under the assumptions of long wavelength and low Reynolds number approximations. Exact solutions for the velocity profile, pressure rise, pressure gradient, volume flow rate and stream function are obtained.

Novel Aspects of Cilia-Driven Flow of Viscoelastic Fluid through a Non-Darcy Medium under the Influence of an Induced Magnetic Field and Heat Transfer [PDF]

Mathematics, 2023
The spontaneous movement of natural motile cilia in the form of metachronal waves is responsible for fluid transport. These cilia, in particular, play important roles in locomotion, feeding, liquid pumping, and cell delivery.

Primary cilia respond to fluid shear stress and mediate flow‐induced calcium deposition in osteoblasts [PDF]

The FASEB Journal, 2013
يتم تنظيم دوران العظام في الجسم الحي من خلال قوى ميكانيكية مثل إجهاد القص الناشئ عن تدفق السوائل التذبذبية الخلالية (OFF)، وتستجيب الخلايا العظمية في المختبر للتحميل الميكانيكي. ومع ذلك، فإن الآليات التي تستشعر بها الخلايا العظمية القوى الميكانيكية، مما يؤدي إلى زيادة ترسب المعادن، ليست مفهومة جيدًا.

Insight in Thermally Radiative Cilia-Driven Flow of Electrically Conducting Non-Newtonian Jeffrey Fluid under the Influence of Induced Magnetic Field [PDF]

Mathematics, 2022
This paper investigates the mobility of cilia in a non-uniform tapered channel in the presence of an induced magnetic field and heat transfer. Thermal radiation effects are included in the heat transfer analysis.

Thermally induced cilia flow of Prandtl nanofluid under the influence of electroosmotic effects with boundary slip

Journal of Taibah University for Science
In current study, the non-Newtonian Prandtl fluid (blood) with exposure of Titanium dioxide nanoparticles is used as a base fluid. The symplectic metachoronal wave technique is employed.

Vascular endothelial primary cilia regulate blood flow-induced EndoMT [PDF]

Cilia, 2012
Vascular endothelial cells present cilia in response to low and oscillatory flow. Cilia function in transducing local blood flow information into functional responses, like nitric oxide production and initiation of gene expression. In the embryonic heart high flow regime applies to the endocardial cushion area, and the absence of cilia here coincides ...

Flow induced by ependymal cilia dominates near-wall cerebrospinal fluid dynamics in the lateral ventricles [PDF]

Journal of The Royal Society Interface, 2014
While there is growing experimental evidence that cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) flow induced by the beating of ependymal cilia is an important factor for neuronal guidance, the respective contribution of vascular pulsation-driven macroscale oscillatory CSF flow remains unclear.

A continuum model for flow induced by metachronal coordination between beating cilia

Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2011
AbstractIn this numerical study we investigate the flow induced by metachronal coordination between beating cilia arranged in a densely packed layer by means of a continuum model. The continuum approach allows us to treat the problem as two-dimensional as well as stationary, in a reference frame moving with the speed of the metachronal wave.

Immotile cilia of the mouse node sense a fluid flow–induced mechanical force for left-right symmetry breaking [PDF]

, 2022
Immotile cilia of crown cells at the node of mouse embryos are required for sensing of a leftward fluid flow1 that gives rise to the breaking of left-right (L-R) symmetry2. The flow-sensing mechanism has long remained elusive, however, with both mechanosensing and chemosensing models having been proposed1, 3–5.

Modeling and analysis of Oldroyd 4-constant mucus flow induced by artificial magnetic cilia [PDF]

Physics of Fluids
Cilia serve as sensory organelles extending from cell surfaces, enabling the monitoring of intricate rheological surroundings. The objective of this study is to incorporate the governing equations of the Oldroyd 4-constant model into flows propelled by ciliary motion.
