Abstract: This study investigates steady magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flow and transport characteristics of a tetra-hybrid nanofluid through a stenosed artery modeled as a Cross non-Newtonian fluid. The problem is motivated by biomedical applications such as magnetic drug targeting, hyperthermia therapy, and controlled blood flow regulation. An extended Tiwari–Das nanofluid model incorporating titanium dioxide, gold, silver, and aluminium oxide nanoparticles is employed to enhance heat and mass transfer. The governing momentum, energy, and concentration equations account for nonlinear thermal radiation, Joule heating, viscous dissipation, non-uniform heat generation/absorption, chemical reaction, and Soret effects. Using similarity transformations, the resulting dimensionless system is solved numerically via MATLAB's bvp4c solver. To improve computational efficiency, Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) and Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs) are developed as surrogate models. Results indicate that increasing the Weissenberg number reduces wall shear stress, while magnetic effects suppress velocity by approximately 28%. Temperature rises by about 22% due to combined thermal effects, whereas concentration increases near the wall with higher Soret number and decreases with stronger chemical reactions. Enhanced nanoparticle volume fraction significantly improves Nusselt and Sherwood numbers. Excellent agreement between numerical and machine-learning results is observed, with ANN showing superior accuracy and faster convergence. The study demonstrates that integrating MHD control with AI-driven modeling offers an efficient framework for optimizing thermal and mass transport in non-Newtonian biomedical flows.
