Pulsatile MHD flow of a Casson fluid through a porous bifurcated arterial stenosis under periodic body acceleration

作者:

Highlights:

• The magnetic field and porous medium increase the plug core radius which forms a new information added to the literature.

• The shear stress value along the outer wall is less than its value along the inner wall of the artery.

• An increase in half of the bifurcation angle leads to decrease in the magnitude of flow resistance.

• A decrease in Darcy number enhances the magnitude of flow resistance values..

• The effect of rheology of blood as a Casson model on flow impedance is found to be predominant in the daughter artery.
