Impact of viscoelastic ooze slime on complex wavy gliders near a solid boundary

Zeeshan Asghar et al.

Summary: Prokaryote propulsion is diverse, with bacteria using various mechanisms such as rotating flagella and gliding motility. A mathematical model is used to study the gliding motility of rod-shaped bacteria on a layer of non-Newtonian slime. The model simulates the bacterial speed, flow rate, and energy loss, and provides a comprehensive explanation of the level curves and velocity of the slime.

Muhammad Rooman et al.

Summary: This article investigates the formation of entropy and its effects on Ellis nanofluid flow through a horizontally porous stretching cylinder. The importance of nanofluid parameters and diffusions on nanofluid motion is explored, and the impacts of key parameters on fluid flow are obtained through numerical solution.

Channel flow of non-Newtonian fluid due to peristalsis under external electric and magnetic field

Zeeshan Asghar et al.

Summary: The study investigates how electroosmotic flow and peristaltic pumping contribute to intracellular fluid flow. The study uses a non-Newtonian couple stress fluid model and a two-dimensional inclined channel with complex peristaltic walls. Numerical analysis reveals that the couple stress fluid flows with a higher velocity in the central region of the channel compared to Newtonian fluid, and the electro-osmotic parameter and Debye-Huckel length enhance fluid velocity in the lower half of the passage.

Zeeshan Asghar et al.

Summary: This article introduces the classification and movement of bacteria, focusing on the simulation method of gliding bacteria movement. By simulating the flow of slime beneath the microorganisms, the flow rate, speed, and propulsion power are calculated, and the flow patterns and velocity are described using graphics and numerical values.

Peristaltic mechanism of Ellis fluid in curved configuration with homogeneous and heterogeneous effects

Maryiam Javed et al.

Summary: This investigation examines the impact of homogeneous-heterogeneous reactions on the MHD peristaltic mechanism of Ellis fluid in a curved channel. The study utilizes perturbation technique and observes that the velocity profile follows a parabolic curve with maximum value near the centerline of the curved channel. The growth of the slip parameter enhances the velocity profile, while the Brinkman number and curvature parameters enhance the heat transfer distribution. Graphs are employed to analyze the results of different parameters.

FLOW OF THE ELLIS FLUID IN THE RENAL TUBULE

M. Sajid et al.

Summary: This paper investigates the flow of Ellis fluid in renal tubules, finding that fluid absorption at the wall is affected by pressure gradient and wall permeability. By assuming the tubule radius is much smaller than its length, governing equations are simplified. Important quantities are numerically computed and compared with existing data, showing good agreement.
