Yayın Weakly nonlinear waves in water of variable depth: Variable-coefficient Korteweg-de Vries equation(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2010-09) Demiray, HilmiIn the present work, utilizing the two-dimensional equations of an incompressible inviscid fluid and the reductive perturbation method, we studied the propagation of weakly non-linear waves in water of variable depth. For the case of slowly varying depth, the evolution equation is obtained as a variable-coefficient Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation. A progressive wave type of solution, which satisfies the evolution equation in the integral sense but not point by point, is presented. The resulting solution is numerically evaluated for two selected bottom profile functions, and it is observed that the wave amplitude increases but the band width of the solitary wave decreases with increasing undulation of the bottom profile.Yayın Modulation of nonlinear waves in a viscous fluid contained in a tapered elastic tube(Pergamon-Elsevier Science, 2002-10) Demiray, HilmiIn the present work, treating the arteries as a tapered, thin walled, long and circularly conical prestressed elastic tube and the blood as a Newtonian fluid, we have studied the amplitude modulation of nonlinear waves in such a fluid-filled elastic tube, by use of the reductive perturbation method. The governing evolution equation is obtained as the dissipative nonlinear Schrodinger equation with variable coefficients. It is shown that this type of equations admit solitary wave solutions with variable wave amplitude and speed. It is observed that, the wave speed increases with distance for tubes of descending radius while it decreases for tubes of ascending radius. The dissipative effects cause a decay in wave amplitude and wave speed.Yayın The boundary layer approximation and nonlinear waves in elastic tubes(Pergamon-Elsevier Science, 2000-09) Antar, Nalan; Demiray, HilmiIn 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.Yayın Weakly nonlinear waves in a fluid with variable viscosity contained in a prestressed thin elastic tube(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2008-04) Demiray, HilmiIn this work, treating the artery as a prestressed thin elastic tube and the blood as an incompressible Newtonian fluid with variable viscosity which vanishes on the boundary of the tube, the propagation of nonlinear waves in such a fluid-filled elastic tube is studied, in the longwave approximation, through the use of reductive perturbation method and the evolution equation is obtained as the Korteweg-deVries-Burgers equation. A progressive wave type of solution is presented for this evolution equation and the result is discussed.Yayın Reflection and transmission of nonlinear waves from arterial branching(Elsevier Ltd, 2006-10) Demiray, HilmiIn this work, treating the arteries as a prestressed thin walled elastic tube and the blood as an inviscid fluid, we have studied the reflection and transmission of nonlinear waves from arterial branching, through the use of reductive perturbation method. The reflected and the transmitted waves at the bifurcation point are calculated in terms of the incident wave. The numerical results indicate that the reflected wave is comparatively small whereas the transmitted waves in branches are comparable with the incident wave. This result is quite consistent with the experimental measurements [N. Sergiopulos, M. Spiridon, F. Pythoud, J.J. Meister, On wave transmission and reflection properties of stenosis, J. Biomechanics 26 (1996) 31-38].Yayın Head-on-collision of nonlinear waves in a fluid of variable viscosity contained in an elastic tube(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2009-08-30) Demiray, HilmiIn this work, treating the arteries as a thin walled, prestressed elastic tube and the blood as an incompressible viscous fluid of variable viscosity, we have studied the interactions of two nonlinear waves, in the long wave approximation, through the use of extended PLK perturbation method, and the evolution equations are shown to be the Korteweg-deVries-Burgers equation. The results show that, Up to O(is an element of(3/2)), the head-on-collision of two nonlinear progressive waves is elastic and the nonlinear progressive waves preserve their original properties after the collision. The phase functions for each wave are derived explicitly and it is shown that they are not straight lines anymore, they are rather some curves.Yayın Amplitude modulation of nonlinear waves in a fluid-filled tapered elastic tube(Elsevier Science Inc, 2004-07-15) Bakırtaş, İlkay; Demiray, HilmiIn 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.Yayın Forced KdV equation in a fluid-filled elastic tube with variable initial stretches(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2009-11) Demiray, HilmiIn 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.Yayın Weakly nonlinear waves in a linearly tapered elastic tube filled with a fluid(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2004-01) Demiray, HilmiIn 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.Yayın Variable coefficient modified KdV equation in fluid-filled elastic tubes with stenosis: Solitary waves(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2009-10-15) Demiray, HilmiIn the present work, treating the arteries as a thin walled prestressed elastic tube with variable radius, 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 non-viscous fluid, the evolution equation is obtained as variable coefficients Korteweg-de Vries equation. Noticing that for a set of initial deformations, the coefficient characterizing the nonlinearity vanish, by re-scaling the stretched coordinates we obtained the variable coefficient modified KdV equation. Progressive wave solution is sought for this evolution equation and it is found that the speed of the wave is variable along the tube axis.
