    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.

    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.

    Modulation of non-linear waves in a viscous fluid contained in an elastic tube
    (Pergamon-Elsevier Science, 2001-06) Demiray, Hilmi
    In the present work, utilizing the non-linear equations of a prestressed thin elastic tube filled with an incompressible viscous 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 how, a finite-time-dependent displacement is added to this initial field, the non-linear equations governing the motion of the tube in the radial direction is obtained. Utilizing the reductive perturbation technique the amplitude modulation of weakly non-linear and dissipative but strongly dispersive waves is examined and the dissipative non-linear Schrodinger equation is obtained. Finally, the numerical solution of the evolution equation under the given initial condition is given and the stability condition of the solution is discussed.
