While the wake of a circular cylinder and, to a lesser extent, the normal flat plate have been
studied in considerable detail, the wakes of elliptic cylinders have not received similar …

Stenosis at arterial bends alters hemodynamics and instigates abnormal disease
progression. This configuration is addressed numerically by exploring pulsatile flow …

Results are presented from a numerical study of transient growth experienced by
infinitesimal perturbations to flow in an axisymmetric pipe with a sudden 1–2 diametral …

The flow past a circular cylinder moving through a fluid at different heights above a plane no-
slip boundary is investigated numerically for Reynolds numbers≤ 200. The gap height is …

The objective of this paper is to present a novel, robust, high-order accurate Immersed
Interface Method (IIM) for advection–diffusion type equations. In contrast to other immersed …

Steady inflow through a non-axisymmetric stenotic model at Re= 500-1000 for Newtonian
and shear-thinning non-Newtonian rheologies was studied numerically to investigate the …

We report the results of an experimental investigation into bifurcation phenomena in laminar
and time-dependent flows through a sudden expansion in a circular pipe. The flow state was …

Atherosclerosis is a pathological condition associated with arterial narrowing. Altered
hemodynamics within stenosed arteries plays a substantive role in myocardial infarction, a …

Time-varying velocity field in an asymmetric constricted tube is experimentally studied using
a two-dimensional particle image velocimetry system. The geometry resembles a vascular …

Onset of flow transition in a sinusoidally oscillating flow through a rigid, constant area
circular pipe with a smooth sinusoidal obstruction in the center of the pipe is studied by …
