    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).

    Coupled quintic nonlinear Schrodinger equations in a generalized elastic solid
    (IOP Publishing Ltd, 2004-10-08) Hacınlıyan, Irma; Erbay, Saadet
    In the present study, the nonlinear modulation of transverse waves propagating in a cubically nonlinear dispersive elastic medium is studied using a multiscale expansion of wave solutions. It is found that the propagation of quasimonochromatic transverse waves is described by a pair of coupled nonlinear Schrodinger (CNLS) equations. In the process of deriving the amplitude equations, it is observed that for a specific choice of material constants and wavenumber, the coefficient of nonlinear terms becomes zero, and the CNLS equations are no longer valid for describing the behaviour of transverse waves. In order to balance the nonlinear effects with the dispersive effects, by intensifying the nonlinearity, a new perturbation expansion is used near the critical wavenumber. It is found that the long time behaviour of the transverse waves about the critical wavenumber is given by a pair of coupled quintic nonlinear Schrodinger (CQNLS) equations. In the absence of one of the transverse waves, the CQNLS equations reduce to the single quintic nonlinear Schrodinger (QNLS) equation which has already been obtained in the context of water waves. By using a modified form of the so-called tanh method, some travelling wave solutions of the CQNLS equations are presented.

    Weakly nonlinear waves in a linearly tapered elastic tube filled with a fluid
    (Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2004-01) Demiray, Hilmi
    In the present work, treating the arteries as a tapered, thin-walled, long and circularly conical prestressed elastic tube and using the long-wave approximation, we have studied the propagation of weakly nonlinear 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 equations admits a solitary wave type of solution with variable wave speed. It is observed that the wave speed increases with the scaled time parameter tau for positive tapering while it decreases for negative tapering, as expected.

    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.

    Travelling waves in a prestressed elastic tube filled with a fluid of variable viscosity

    In this work, treating the artery as a prestressed thin elastic tube with variable radius and the blood as all incompressible Newtonian fluid with variable viscosity, the propagation of nonlinear waves ill Such a composite medium is studied, in the long wave approximation, through the use of the reductive perturbation method and the Forced Korteweg-de Vries-Burgers (FKdVB) equation with variable coefficients is obtained as the evolution equation. A progressive wave type of solution is presented for this evolution equation and the result is discussed.

    Nonlinear waves in a stenosed elastic tube filled with viscous fluid: Forced perturbed korteweg-de vries equation
    (Springer Science and Business Media, LLC, 2008) Tay, Kim Gaik; Demiray, Hilmi; Tiong, Ong Chee
    In the present work, treating the artery as a prestressed thin-walled and long circularly cylindrical elastic tube with a mild symmetrical stenosis and the blood as an incompressible Newtonian fluid, we have studied the propagation of weakly nonlinear waves in such a composite medium, in the long wave approximation, by use of the reductive perturbation method. By introducing a set of stretched coordinates suitable for the boundary value type of problems and expanding the field variables into asymptotic series of the smallness parameter of nonlinearity and dispersion, we obtained a set of nonlinear differential equations governing the terms at various order. By solving these nonlinear differential equations, we obtained the forced perturbed Korteweg-de Vries equation with variable coefficient as the nonlinear evolution equation. By use of the coordinate transformation, it is shown that this type of nonlinear evolution equation admits a progressive wave solution with variable wave speed.
