The Influence of a Micropolar Fluid on Peristaltic Transport in an Annulus: Application of the Clot Model

A serious pathological condition is encountered when some blood constituents deposited on the blood vessels get detached from the wall, join the blood stream again and form a clot. Study of the peristaltic transport of a micropolar fluid in an annular region is investigated under low Reynolds number...
