Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) bioconvective flow of Williamson nanomaterial in frame of gyrotactic microorganisms is addressed. Nanomaterial characterizes gyrotactic microorganism. Bioconvection is generated by buoyancy forces in the communication of nanoparticles and motile microorganisms. The use of gyrotactic microorganisms into nanofluid here is just to stabilize the nanoparticles to suspend due to a phenomenon called bioconvection. Newtonian conditions for thermal, solutal and motile microorganism are employed. The transformed nonlinear systems of momentum, energy, nanoparticles concentration and motile microorganisms density are solved numerically through the bvp4c technique. Significance of various variables on physical quantities is explained graphically.

The current research presents a mathematical model to study the flow of a non-Newtonian magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) Casson-Carreau nanofluid (CCNF) over a stretching porous surface, considering mass and heat transport rates with Stefan blowing, non-linear thermal radiation, heat source-sink, chemical reaction, thermophoretic and Brownian motions, convective heating, Joule heating, motile microorganisms, and bio-convection. The presence of microorganisms is utilized to control the suspension of nanomaterials within the nanofluid. The current flow model has been rendered by the boundary layer approximation and we get the highly nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs).

The Darcy-Forchheimer model is a commonly used and accurate method for simulating flow in porous media, proving beneficial for fluid separation, heat exchange, subsurface fluid transfer, filtration, and purification. The current study aims to describe heat and mass transfer in ternary nanofluid flow on a radially stretched sheet with activation energy. The velocity equation includes Darcy-Fochheimer porous media effects.

Background: The purpose of this study is to investigate the electroosmotic flow of a hybrid nanofluid (Al2O3-Cu/Blood) with gyrotactic microorganisms through a bifurcated artery with mild stenosis in both parent and daughter arteries. The flow is subjected to a uniform magnetic field, viscous dissipation, and a heat source.
Methods: The governing equations undergo the non-dimensional transformation and coordinate conversion to regularize irregular boundaries, then solve the resulting system using the Crank-Nicolson method.
