Asymptotic Methods for Micropolar Fluids in a Tube Structure

Abstract: The steady motion of a micropolar fluid through a wavy tube with the dimensions depending on a small parameter is studied. An asymptotic expansion is proposed and error estimates are proved by using a boundary layer method. We apply the method of partial asymptotic decomposition of domain and we prove that the solution of the partially decomposed problem represents a good approximation for the solution of the considered problem.

“…In particular, the nonlinear coupled systems (1) and (2) can be used to model the behavior of liquid crystals, polymeric fluids and blood under some circumstances (see for instance [2], [4], [23] and the references therein). These systems have been mainly analyzed by G. Lukaszewicz in [22].…”

“…The isothermal flow of a micropolar fluid was successfully considered both in 2D, see Dupuy et al (2004Dupuy et al ( , 2008 and in a more realistic 3D case, see Pažanin (2011a,b). Taking into account the thermal effects as well, non-isothermal flows have gained much attention in the recent years, see e.g.…”

“…Our work is strongly motivated by recent papers of Dupuy, Panasenko and Stavre [7,8] in which the authors rigorously derive the asymptotic models for 2-D micropolar flow through a periodically constricted tube and a thin curvilinear channel. Although 2-D setting (in which the microrotation is a scalar function) has often been employed, especially in blood motion modeling, it represents only the first step to more realistic 3-D setting.…”
