Analytical investigation of cilia induced mucous flow

open access: closedThe Bulletin of Mathematical Biophysics, 1967
This is an analytic study of mucous flow caused by ciliary motion. The computed flow data may be compared with that already found exprimentally. The effects of mucous density, viscosity and layer depth on flow phenomena are investigated. The effects of cilia diameter, length, spacing and oscillation frequency are determined from the equations governing

Analysis of a channel and tube flow induced by cilia

open access: closedApplied Mathematics and Computation, 2017
Power law metachronal wave motion, responsible for the cilia transport is investigated in this paper using numerical tools. The dynamical analysis is made in channel and in tube to demonstrate the quantitative effect of the geometry. Similarity transformations are employed to convert the governing partial differential equations into a set of coupled ...

Inducing 3D vortical flow patterns with 2D asymmetric actuation of artificial cilia for high-performance active micromixing [PDF]

open access: closedExperiments in Fluids, 2014
Driven by the advancement of the “lab-chip” concept, a new beating behavior of artificial cilia was identified to meet the demands on rapid and complete fluid mixing in miniaturized devices. This beating behavior is characterized by an in-plane asymmetric motion along a modified figure-of-eight trajectory.

Electro-rheological flow of seminal fluid (K-L MODEL) induced by movement of cilia in a circular conduit

open access: closedProceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part E: Journal of Process Mechanical Engineering, 2023
The current study deals with the flow of seminal fluid through the ductus efferentes owing to electro-osmotic force and motion of cilia. The constitutive equation of semen liquid has been assumed to be described as a K-L (Kuang and Luo) fluid model. The main equations of the ciliary flow of K-L model are solved by considering the supremacy of viscous ...

Experimental investigation of the flow induced by artificial cilia

open access: closedLab on a Chip, 2011
The fluid transport produced by rectangular shaped, magnetically actuated artificial cilia of 70 μm length and 20 μm width was determined by means of phase-locked Micro Particle Image Velocimetry (μPIV) measurements in a closed microfluidic chamber. The phase-averaged flow produced by the artificial cilia reached up to 130 μm s(-1) with an actuation ...

Analysis of the peristaltic-ciliary flow of Johnson–Segalman fluid induced by peristalsis-cilia of the human fallopian tube

open access: closedMathematical Biosciences, 2018
The present prospective theoretical analysis concerns with the peristalsis-cilia induced transport of a developing embryo from ampulla to intramural, in the human fallopian tube. A model of peristalsis-cilia induced flow of the Johnson-Segalman fluid within fallopian tubal fluid in a finite two dimensional narrow tube is developed. We solved highly non-
