    Interactions of nonlinear acoustic waves in a fluid-filled elastic tube
    (Pergamon-Elsevier Science, 2001-03) Akgün, Güler; Demiray, Hilmi
    In the present work, the nonlinear interactions of two acoustical waves propagating in a fluid-filled elastic tube with different wave numbers, frequencies and group velocities are examined. Employing the multiple-scale expansion method, expanding the field quantities into asymptotic series of the smallness parameter and solving the resulting differential equations of various orders of the same parameter, we obtained two coupled nonlinear Schrodinger equations. The nonlinear plane wave solutions to these equations are also given for some special cases.

    The boundary layer approximation and nonlinear waves in elastic tubes
    (Pergamon-Elsevier Science, 2000-09) Antar, Nalan; Demiray, Hilmi
    In the present work, employing the nonlinear equations of an incompressible, isotropic and elastic thin tube and approximate equations of an incompressible viscous fluid, the propagation of weakly nonlinear waves is examined. In order to include the geometrical and structural dispersion into analysis, the wall's inertial and shear deformation are taken into account in determining the inner pressure-inner cross sectional area relation. Using the reductive perturbation technique, the propagation of weakly nonlinear waves, in the long-wave approximation, are shown to be governed by the Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) and the Korteweg-de Vries-Burgers (KdVB), depending on the balance between the nonlinearity, dispersion and/or dissipation. In the case of small viscosity (or large Reynolds number), the behaviour of viscous fluid is quite close to that ideal fluid and viscous effects are confined to a very thin layer near the boundary. In this case, using the boundary layer approximation we obtain the viscous-Korteweg-de Vries and viscous-Burgers equations.

    Modulation of non-linear axial and transverse waves in a fluid-filled thin elastic tube
    (Pergamon-Elsevier Science, 2000-07) Akgün, Güler; Demiray, Hilmi
    In the present work, utilizing the non-linear equations of a pre-stressed thin elastic tube filled with an incompressible inviscid fluid the propagation of weakly non-linear waves in such a medium is studied. Considering that the arteries are initially subjected to a large static transmural pressure P-0 and an axial stretch lambda(z) and, in the course of blood flow, a finite time-dependent displacement is added to this initial field, the non-linear equations governing the motion of the tube in the radial and axial directions are obtained. Utilizing the reductive perturbation technique the amplitude modulation of weakly non-linear but strongly dispersive waves is examined. The localized travelling wave solution to the evolution equation is given and the stability condition is discussed.

    On the derivation of some non-linear evolution equations and their progressive wave solutions
    (Pergamon-Elsevier Science, 2003-06) Demiray, Hilmi
    In the present work, utilizing the reductive perturbation method, the non-linear equations of a prestressed viscoelastic thick tube filled with a viscous fluid are examined in the longwave approximation and some evolution equations and their modified forms are derived. The analytical solution of some of these equations are obtained and it is shown that for perturbed cases, the wave amplitude and the phase velocity decay in the time parameter.

    Nonlinear waves in a viscous fluid contained in a viscoelastic tube
    (Birkhauser Verlag, 2001-11) Demiray, Hilmi
    In the present work the propagation of weakly nonlinear waves in a prestressed viscoelastic thin tube filled with a viscous fluid is studied. Using the reductive perturbation technique in analyzing the nonlinear equations of a viscoelastic tube and the approximate equations of a viscous fluid, the propagation of weakly nonlinear waves in the longwave approximation is studied. Depending on the order of viscous effects, various evolution equations like, Burgers', Korteweg-de Vries, Korteweg-de Vries-Burgers' equations and their perturbed forms are obtained. Ravelling wave type of solutions to some of these evolution equations are sought. Finally, utilizing the finite difference scheme, a numerical solution is presentede for the perturbed KdVB equation and the result is discussed.

    Solitary waves in elastic tubes filled with a layered fluid
    (Pergamon-Elsevier Science, 2001-04) Demiray, Hilmi
    In this work, we studied the propagation of weakly non-linear waves in a prestressed thin elastic tube filled with an incompressible layered fluid, where the outer layer is assumed to be inviscid whereas the cylindrical core is considered to be viscous. Using the reductive perturbation technique, the propagation of weakly non-linear waves in the long-wave approximation is studied. The governing equation is shown to be the perturbed Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation. A travelling wave type of solution for this evolution equation is sought and it is shown that the amplitude of the solitary wave for the perturbed KdV equation decays slowly with time.

    Solitary waves in a tapered prestressed fluid-filled elastic tube
    (Birkhauser Verlag AG, 2004-03) Demiray, Hilmi
    In the present work, treating the arteries as a tapered, thin walled, long and circularly conical prestressed elastic tube and using the longwave 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 admit a solitary wave type of solution with variable wave speed. It is observed that, the wave speed increases with distance for positive tapering while it decreases for negative tapering.

    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.

    Forced KdV equation in a fluid-filled elastic tube with variable initial stretches
    (Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2009-11) Demiray, Hilmi
    In this work, by utilizing the nonlinear equations of motion of an incompressible, isotropic thin elastic tube subjected to a variable initial stretches both in the axial and the radial directions and the approximate equations of motion of an incompressible inviscid fluid, which is assumed to be a model for blood, we have studied the propagation of nonlinear waves in such a medium under the assumption of long wave approximation. Employing the reductive perturbation method we obtained the variable coefficient forced KdV equation as the evolution equation. By use of proper transformations for the dependent field and independent coordinate variables, we have shown that this evolution equation reduces to the conventional KdV equation, which admits the progressive wave solution. The numerical results reveal that the wave speed is variable in the axial coordinate and it decreases for increasing circumferential stretch (or radius). Such a result seems to be plausible from physical considerations. We further observed that, the wave amplitude gets smaller and smaller with increasing time parameter along the tube axis.
