Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
In this research, a mathematical model of pulsating blood flow is numerically simulated in a stenotic artery. The Sisko fluid model has been used to describe the non-Newtonian rheology of blood. Vessels are assumed to be elastic and so their geometry is time-dependent. To simulate a more real human body, the stenoses are assumed to be tapered. By applying radial coordinate transformation, elastic vessel is transformed to rectangular shape vessel. Navier–Stokes equations of blood flow are solved using the finite difference method, considering the pressure gradient and body acceleration. Dynamic characteristics, such as blood flow velocity, volumetric flow rate and resistance to flow rate are obtained and the impact of body acceleration parameters on them is discussed. The results of the simulation are in good agreement with existing results.
