    Nonlinear wave modulation in a prestressed thin elastic tube filled with an inviscid fluid
    (Wit Press, 2002) Bakırtaş, İlkay; Demiray, Hilmi
    In the present work, employing the nonlinear equations of an incompressible, isotropic and elastic thin tube and the approximate equations of an incompressible inviscid fluid and then utilizing the reductive perturbation technique, the amplitude modulation of weakly nonlinear waves is examined. It is shown that, the amplitude modulation of these waves is governed by a nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equation. The result is compared with some previous works on the same subject. The modulational instability of the monochromatic wave solution is discussed for some elastic materials and initial deformations. It is shown that the amplitude modulation of weakly nonlinear waves near the marginal state is governed by the Generalized Nonlinear Schrödinger equation (GNLS).

    Amplitude modulation of nonlinear waves in a fluid-filled tapered elastic tube
    (Elsevier Science Inc, 2004-07-15) Bakırtaş, İlkay; Demiray, Hilmi
    In the present work, treating the arteries as a tapered, thin walled, long and circularly conical prestressed elastic tube and using the reductive perturbation method, we have studied the amplitude modulation of nonlinear waves in such a fluid-filled elastic tube. By considering the blood as an incompressible inviscid fluid the evolution equation is obtained as the nonlinear Schrodinger equation with variable coefficients. It is shown that this type of equations admit a solitary wave type of solution with variable wave speed. It is observed that, the wave speed decreases with distance for tubes with descending radius while it increases for tubes with ascending radius.

    Weakly non-linear waves in a tapered elastic tube filled with an inviscid fluid
    (Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2005-07) Bakırtaş, İlkay; Demiray, Hilmi
    In the present work, treating the artery as a tapered, thin walled, long and circularly conical prestressed elastic tube and using the longwave approximation, we have studied the propagation of weakly non-linear waves in such a fluid-filled elastic tube by employing the reductive perturbation method. By considering the blood as an incompressible inviscid fluid, the evolution equation is obtained as the Korteweg-de Vries equation with a variable coefficient. It is shown that this type of equation admits a solitary wave-type solution with variable wave speed. It is observed that, the wave speed decreases with distance for positive tapering while it increases for negative tapering. It is further observed that, the progressive wave profile for expanding tubes (a > 0) becomes more steepened whereas for narrowing tubes (a < 0) it becomes more flattened.
