Emergence of metachronal waves in cilia arrays: a hydrodynamic mechanism

, 2016
International audience; 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.

Influence of motility on couple stress fluid flow through a channel with slip constraints

Case Studies in Thermal Engineering
The energy loss associated with the beating of cilia in the human stomach, leading to acidity in the blood flow under certain conditions, has become a critical topic in modern medical research.

Non-Newtonian fluid model analysis due to metachronal waves of cilia: A physiological mathematical model

Partial Differential Equations in Applied Mathematics
The Phan–Thien–Tanner non-Newtonian model of fluid flow is considered to mathematically model the cilia governed flow inside human body. The collective action of cilia generates a rhythmic motion in form of metachronal wave travelling along the wall of ...
