Assuming the stenoses to be mild and using the slip boundary condition, the equations governing the flow of the proposed model are solved, and closed-form expressions for the flow characteristics (resistance to flow and wall shear stress) are derived. The effects of different parameters on these flow characteristics are analyzed. It is observed that both the resistance to the flow and the wall shear stress increase with the heights of the stenoses and the slip parameter; but decrease with the Darcy number, b^rthermore, the effects of the wall exponent parameter, the cross-viscosity coefficient and the micropolar parameter on the flow characteristics are discussed.展开更多
