Theoretical analysis of Reiner-Philippoff fluid flow in two layers due to metachronal propulsion: Subject to surrounding temperature

Case Studies in Thermal Engineering
Mucociliary clearance plays a crucial role within the respiratory system as an initial protective mechanism against infections. Hence, it is imperative to validate any assumptions made regarding the mucociliary clearance and its impact on its ...

Ciliary peristalsis flow of hydromagnetic Sutterby nanofluid through symmetric channel: Viscous dissipation in case of variable electrical conductivity

Engineering Science and Technology, an International Journal
For the sperm to have the best chance of reaching the egg, the ciliated walls of the uterine tube must be meticulously monitored. Recognizing the significance of this investigation, a novel mathematical simulation of this process has been performed by ...

Emergence of metachronal waves in cilia arrays: a hydrodynamic mechanism

, 2016
The present work reports the emergence of metachronal waves in cilia arrays immersed in a two-fluid environment using acoupled lattice Boltzmann - Immersed Boundary method. The periciliary layer (PCL) is confined between the wall and the mucus layer. Its depth is chosen in such a way that the tips of the cilia can penetrate the mucus layer.
