Towards a mathematical model of the aortic reservoir

It is well known from experiments that the circulation is going on under physiological parameters, only if the rigidity of the aortic wall is sufficiently small. We show that the result can be confirmed by the one-dimensional mathematical model describing the dynamics of the aortic reservoir (AR) by...

Description
Summary:It is well known from experiments that the circulation is going on under physiological parameters, only if the rigidity of the aortic wall is sufficiently small. We show that the result can be confirmed by the one-dimensional mathematical model describing the dynamics of the aortic reservoir (AR) by means of a hyperbolic system of PDE.
