Analytical expressions for axial velocity, flow rate, fluid acceleration and shear stress are obtained by applying the Laplace and finite Hankel＇s transforms. The velocity profiles for various values of Hartmann number, couple stress parameters and the angle of inclination are shown graphically. Also the effects of body acceleration, Womerseley parameters and permeability parameters have been discussed. The results obtained in the present mathematical model for different values of the parameters involved in the problem show that the flow of blood is influenced by the effect of magnetic field, the porous medium and the inclination angle. The present model is compared with the other existing models. Through this theoretical investigation, the applications of magnetic field have also been indicated in the field of biological, biomedical and engineering sciences.展开更多
