Effects of unsteadiness and non-Newtonian rheology on blood flow through a tapered time-variant stenotic artery
A two-dimensional model is used to analyze the unsteady pulsatile flow of blood through a tapered artery with stenosis. The rheology of the flowing blood is captured by the constitutive equation of Carreau model. The geometry of the time-variant stenosis has been used to carry out the present analys...
