摘要
We carry out a study of the peristaltic motion of an incompressible micropolar fluid in a two-dimensional channel. The effects of viscoelastic wall properties and micropolar fluid parameters on the flow are investigated using the equations of the, fluid as well as of the deformable boundaries. A perturbation technique is used to determine flow characteristics. The velocity profile is presented and discussed briefly. We find the critical values of the parameters involving wall characteristics, which cause mean flow reversal.
