Peristaltic Pumping of a Generalized Newtonian Fluid in an Elastic Tube

The paper investigates the peristaltic pumping of an incompressible non-Newtonian fluid in an elastic tube with long wavelengths and low Reynolds number approximations. Carreau fluid model is considered for present study to describe the peristaltic flow characteristics of non- Newtonian fluid in an...
