Abstract:Peristalsis is a common motion in various biological systems, especially the upper urinary tract, where it plays a pivotal role in conveying urine from the kidneys to the bladder. Using computational fluid dynamics, this study aims to investigate the effect of various peristaltic parameters on the motion of an obstacle through a two‐dimensional ureter. Methodologically, Incompressible Navier–Stokes equations were utilized as the fluid domain's governing equations, and the Dynamic Mesh method (DM) was employed … Show more
