Table 1b.
Results from simulations with periodic sinusoidal wall motion (T=3.2 s) and a steady inlet condition (Average axial velocity at inlet = 1.48 mm/s). The table compares wall shear stress values to the quasi-static Poiseuille values for shear and presents the average and maximum percent difference.
Radius Range (μm) | Axizl Wall Shear Stress (dynes/cm2) | Poiseuille Shear Stress (dynes/cm2) | Max. |Vr/Va| Ratio | Avg. % Diff WSS | Max. % Diff WSS |

40 < R < 60 | 0.57 < τw < 2.08 | 0.57 < τpoiseuille < 2.08 | 0.0159 | 0.4% | 0.4% |
60 < R < 120 | 0.03 < τw < 0.71 | 0.03 < τpoiseuille < 0.71 | 0.5450 | 0.6% | 1.5% |
