Abstract The current examination hypothetically explores physical characteristics of electro-magneto-hydrodynamics of circulation
system under the sight of electroosmotic forces on concentrically catheterized diseased arterial segment having both stenosis and
aneurysm along its boundaries. A hybrid fractional second-grade nanofluid model is under consideration. The governing laws are
tackled precisely, and closed-form arrangements are gotten for the instances of mild stenosis and aneurysm. Exact articulations for
heat transfer, electroosmotic potential, hemodynamic velocity, arterial wall shear stress, and catheter wall shear stress are acquired.
Graphical portrayals for the impact of significant parameters on flow characteristics have been devised and talked about. It has been
concluded that heat flow and hemodynamic velocity increase for spherical-shaped nanoparticles as compared to the other shapes of
nanoparticles. Hemodynamic velocity in the stenotic segment is much lower than that of the aneurysmal segment. Our results show
that the flow rate among both abnormal segments of the artery increases in the presence of a catheter and there is more magnitude
of the wall shear stress on the catheter wall. Instantaneous streamlines patterns are used to investigate the global conduct of blood.
The current study intends to be used in medical regimes for drug delivery and biomedicine.
1 Introduction
The study of blood circulation across stenotic and aneurysmal arteries is of present importance, owing to medical science’s ever-
increasing demands. Atherosclerosis is an arterial disease that can cause large blood vessels to become blocked, resulting in death
and severe morbidity. Arterial stenosis is a tightening of the arteries brought about by atherosclerosis, a disease in which plaque
consisting of cholesterol, fats, and other different materials develops on the blood vessel walls. Stenosis produces an increase in blood
pressure by increasing blood flow resistance. The aneurysm is the extension of an artery achieved by delicacy in the blood vessel
wall. Because of the improvement of aneurysms, blood flow into veins becomes more difficult. Several studies have been conducted
based on the causes aforementioned. Chaturani and Samy [1] considered a non-Newtonian blood flow through a diseased artery by
considering the Herschel–Bulkley fluid model in their study. Mehmood et al. [2] presented the mathematical modeling and numerical
simulations of an unsteady axisymmetric blood flow through a porous diseased arterial segment with elastic walls. However, Gallo
et al. [3] pointed out that using a combination of in vivo imaging and in silico approaches to compute the hemodynamic variables
necessitates some assumptions. The way BCs are used to construct tailored research, in particular, may have an impact on the
expected hemodynamic situation. Pincombe and Mazumdar [4] have studied non-Newtonian bloodstream through supply routes
containing aneurysms and stenosis for the Bingham liquid blood model. Flow is considered as a result of both tightening influences
and aneurysms.
To explore hemodynamics on such a patient-specific approach in both diseased and healthy subject, in vivo measurements have
been integrated by Morbiducci et al. [5] with computational fluid dynamics to offer accurate morphological features and noninvasive
assessment of blood flow. Nadeem and Ijaz [6] investigated the viscous blood flow through diseased inclined arteries having both
stenosis and dilatation. The impacts of various sources of uncertainty in idealized models of outlet boundary conditions upon
pressure waveforms and wall shear stress throughout thoracic aortic aneurysms have been addressed by Boccadifuoco et al. [7]. The
reconfiguration of the domain geometry, the selection of the mechanical characteristics of the artery wall, and the application of
appropriate inlet/outlet boundary conditions are the most significant uncertainties. Ellahi et al. [8] conducted the study on numerical
methods for Jeffrey liquid model through nanoparticles within the diseased atherosclerotic segment. Furthermore, the convection
effects of heat exchange are taken under consideration.
