Demiray, H. (2008). Non-linear waves in a fluid-filled inhomogeneous elastic tube with variable radius. International Journal of Non-Linear Mechanics, 43(4), 241-245. doi:10.1016/j.ijnonlinmec.2007.12.001Özet
In the present work, by employing the non-linear equations of motion of an incompressible, inhomogeneous, isotropic and prestressed thin elastic tube with variable radius and the approximate equations of an inviscid fluid, which is assumed to be a model for blood, we studied the propagation of non-linear waves in such a medium, in the longwave approximation. Utilizing the reductive perturbation method we obtained the variable coefficient Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation as the evolution equation. By seeking a progressive wave type of solution to this evolution equation, we observed that the wave speed decreases for increasing radius and shear modulus, while it increases for decreasing inner radius and the shear modulus.

Two-dimensional wave packets in an elastic solid with couple stresses
Babaoğlu, Ceni; Erbay, Saadet (Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2004-08)The problem of (2+1) (two spatial and one temporal) dimensional wave propagation in a bulk medium composed of an elastic material with couple stresses is considered. The aim is to derive (2+1) non-linear model equations ... -
Reflection and transmission of nonlinear waves from arterial branching
Demiray, Hilmi (Elsevier Ltd, 2006-10)In 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 ... -
A Higher-order Boussinesq equation in locally non-linear theory of one-dimensional non-local elasticity
Duruk, Nilay; Erkip, Albert; Erbay, Hüsnü Ata (Oxford Univ Press, 2009-02)In one space dimension, a non-local elastic model is based on a single integral law, giving the stress when the strain is known at all spatial points. In this study, we first derive a higher-order Boussinesq equation using ...
