An Analytical Approach to Study the Blood Flow over a Nonlinear Tapering Stenosed Artery in Flow of Carreau Fluid Model by Riaz Ahmad, Asma Farooqi, Rashada Farooqi, Nawaf N. Hamadneh, Md Fayz-Al-Asad, Ilyas Khan, Muhammad Sajid, Ghulam Bary, Muhammad Farooq Saleem Khan

“…The obtained results demonstrate that for shear-thinning fluid, the fluid velocity increases with the increasing parameter m while opposite behavior is observed with the increase in We. Hence, the presented numerical analysis reveals many aspects of the flow by considering the blood as a non-Newtonian Carreau fluid model, and the presented model can be equally applicable to other bio-mathematical studies.…”

Microstructure and properties of the Al-0.5 wt.% Fe alloy wire, copper-clad by electrochemical deposition by A.E. Medvedev, K.E. Kiryanova, E.B. Medvedev, M.V. Gorbatkov, M.M. Motkov

“…Annealing at 300 °C for 1 h leads to recovery of the ductility to the original level (4.3% for the cold-drawn Al-0.5Fe alloy wires) with a slight decrease in the ultimate tensile strength to 184 MPa and an increase in the specific electrical conductivity of the bimetallic wire to 60.9%IACS, as well as a change in fracture behavior to ductile. This method is promising for creating the bimetallic aluminum wires with a thin copper layer of controlled thickness and chemical composition to produce conductive elements in which the skin effect could be realized.…”
