Abstract: The study of pulsatile flows is relevant to many areas of applications. Typical applications include aerodynamics, biofluid mechanics, wind flows, and gas transport. Transition to turbulence during ...

Abstract: The presence of turbulence in the cardiovascular system is generally an indication of some type of abnormality. Most cardiologists agree that turbulence near a valve indicates either valvular ...

Abstract: Hemodynamic aspects of obliterative processes in peripheral blood vessels were studied on a mechanical model built of distensible tubing, with a fixed peripheral resistance, through which citrated ...

Abstract: Compliant tubes attain a complex three-dimensional geometry when the external pressure exceeds the internal pressure and the tube is partially collapsed. A new technique for remote measurement ...
