Hemodynamic characteristics of blood flow in an inclined overlapped stenosed arterial section

This work presents a theoretical analysis of the non-linear behavior of blood flow along an angled arterial section with overlapping stenosis. An elastic cylindrical tube with a moving wall is used to represent the artery, and a Casson liquid is used to simulate blood flowing through it. The nonlinear equations that govern blood flow are taken into account. The influence of the pulsatile pressure gradient caused by the regular heartbeat on the flow process in the stenosed artery is demonstrated mathematically. The current analytical method can compute the wall shear stress, flow resistivity, and velocity profiles with mild stenosis assumption by applying the boundary conditions. Numerical calculations of the desired quantities are carried out systematically. They provide an overview of how the degree of stenosis and the malleability of the artery wall influence blood flow abnormalities. Concerning the height of stenosis, the surface shear stress and the resistivity to flow increase together with an increase in the proclivity angle.
