From: Effects of non-Newtonian viscosity on arterial and venous flow and transport

(A) Maps of viscosity and shear rate obtained with the Carreau-Yasuda model in the regions of the computational domain where the viscosity is greater than the critical threshold (\(\mu \ge \mu _\text {critical})\). These are regions where the non-Newtonian effects are most important. (B) Critical viscosity is defined by \(\mu _\text {critical} = 3\mu _\text {N}\).
