Abstract: A finite-element model for pulsatile flow in a straight flexible partially obstructed tube is developed. In the unobstructed sections of the tube the model considers the continuity equation, the ...

Abstract: A nonlinear mathematical model of arterial blood flow, which can account for tapering, branching, and the presence of stenosed segments, is presented. With the finite-element method, the model ...

Abstract: The scanning infrared camera has been used to verify an analytical model relating blood perfusion rate to skin temperature. The blood perfusion rates were measured with both the mercury strain ...
