Peristaltic pumping in sub-wavelength channels
Jessica K Shang, J Brennen Carr, Caroline D Cardinale +1
We apply the lubrication approximation to solve for the flow generated by a peristaltic traveling wave in a finite, planar channel, and examine the effect of channel length. Cerebr…

Peristaltic pumping in thin, non-axisymmetric, annular tubes
J. Brennen Carr, John H. Thomas, Jia Liu +1
Two-dimensional laminar flow of a viscous fluid induced by peristalsis due to a moving wall wave has been studied previously for a rectangular channel, a circular tube, and a conce…
