A Mathematical Model for the Flow of a Casson Fluid due to Metachronal Beating of Cilia in a Tube
A mathematical model is developed to study the transport mechanism of a Casson fluid flow inspired by the metachronal coordination between the beating cilia in a cylindrical tube. A two-dimensional system of nonlinear equations governing the flow problem is formulated by using axisymmetric cylindric...
