The plots of the u—velocity profile over the pore area subjected to peristalsis motion at five different time points (T1–T5) during a deformation cycle. (a) Along the x-axis over the 10 µm pore, (b) along the y-axis over the 10 µm pore, (c) along the z-axis over the 10 µm pore, (d) along the x-axis over the 5 µm pore, (e) along the y-axis over the 5 µm pore, (f) along the z-axis over the 5 µm pore, (g) along the x-axis over the 1 µm pore, (h) along the y-axis over the 1 µm pore and (i) along the z-axis over the 1 µm pore. The plot locations are shown in Figure 5a.
