title: Peristaltic transport of a physiological fluid. Part - II. Flow in uniform geometry.
abstract: Using the model of peristaltic flow in non-uniform geometry, developed in the companion paper (Part I), results for uniform tube and channel are obtained in closed form. Comparison of analysis with other theories and the effect of viscosity variation are discussed in detail. Finally, quantitative comparison are made between theory and experiments of Weinberg et al. and Latham.
