Abstract

We propose a model of a channel flow between actively moving elastic plates as a framework for blood flow in active human arteries. The main difference from extant models is that our model is autonomous. It is a nonlinear partial differential equation governing the deformation of the plates involving sixth order spatial derivative. The equation has a similar structure to the model we proposed earlier to simulate another active system-spinning combustion front. References
